Check was misc-const-correctness, combined with readability-isolate-declaration
as suggested by the docs.
Temporarily clang-format "QualifierAlignment: Left" was used to get consistency
with the prevailing order of keywords.

Currently, during baking each pixel stores a seed input that comes from the
Blender side. This is only needed for vertex color baking, however -
for regular image baking, we can just as well hash the pixel coordinates.
Therefore, we can save some memory (4 byte per pixel) by splitting the seed
info out into a separate pass and only storing it when needed.

For example
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver()
{
}
```
becomes
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver() {}
```
Saves quite some vertical space, which is especially handy for
constructors.

This was not working well in non-trivial scenes before the light tree, and now
it is even harder to make it work well with the light tree. It would average the
with equal weight for every light object regardless of intensity or distance, and
be quite noisy due to not working with multiple importance sampling.
We may restore this if were enough good use cases for the previous implementation,
but let's wait and see what the feedback is.
Some uses cases for this have been replaced by the shadow catcher passes, which
did not exist when this was added.

This adds path guiding features into Cycles by integrating Intel's Open Path
Guiding Library. It can be enabled in the Sampling > Path Guiding panel in the
render properties.
This feature helps reduce noise in scenes where finding a path to light is
difficult for regular path tracing.
The current implementation supports guiding directional sampling decisions on
surfaces, when the material contains a least one diffuse component, and in
volumes with isotropic and anisotropic Henyey-Greenstein phase functions.
On surfaces, the guided sampling decision is proportional to the product of
the incident radiance and the normal-oriented cosine lobe and in volumes it
is proportional to the product of the incident radiance and the phase function.
The incident radiance field of a scene is learned and updated during rendering
after each per-frame rendering iteration/progression.
At the moment, path guiding is only supported by the CPU backend. Support for
GPU backends will be added in future versions of OpenPGL.

* Rename "texture" to "data array". This has not used textures for a long time,
there are just global memory arrays now. (On old CUDA GPUs there was a cache
for textures but not global memory, so we used to put all data in textures.)
* For CUDA and HIP, put globals in KernelParams struct like other devices.
* Drop __ prefix for data array names, no possibility for naming conflict now that
these are in a struct.
Light groups are a type of pass that only contains lighting from a subset of light sources.
They are created in the View layer, and light sources (lamps, objects with emissive materials
and/or the environment) can be assigned to a group.
Currently, each light group ends up generating its own version of the Combined pass.
In the future, additional types of passes (e.g. shadowcatcher) might be getting their own
per-lightgroup versions.
The lightgroup creation and assignment is not Cycles-specific, so Eevee or external render
engines could make use of it in the future.
Note that Lightgroups are identified by their name - therefore, the name of the Lightgroup
in the View Layer and the name that's set in an object's settings must match for it to be
included.
Currently, changing a Lightgroup's name does not update objects - this is planned for the
future, along with other features such as denoising for light groups and viewing them in
preview renders.

* Replace license text in headers with SPDX identifiers.
* Remove specific license info from outdated readme.txt, instead leave details
to the source files.
* Add list of SPDX license identifiers used, and corresponding license texts.
* Update copyright dates while we're at it.

We need to increase GPU memory usage a bit. Unfortunately we can't get away
with writing either reflection or transmission passes because these BSDFs may
scatter in either direction but still must be in a fixed reflection or
transmission category to match up with the color passes.
Remove prefix of filenames that is the same as the folder name. This used
to help when #includes were using individual files, but now they are always
relative to the cycles root directory and so the prefixes are redundant.
For patches and branches, git merge and rebase should be able to detect the
renames and move over code to the right file.
* Split render/ into scene/ and session/. The scene/ folder now contains the
scene and its nodes. The session/ folder contains the render session and
associated data structures like drivers and render buffers.
* Move top level kernel headers into new folders kernel/camera/, kernel/film/,
kernel/light/, kernel/sample/, kernel/util/
* Move integrator related kernel headers into kernel/integrator/
* Move OSL shaders from kernel/shaders/ to kernel/osl/shaders/
For patches and branches, git merge and rebase should be able to detect the
renames and move over code to the right file.
