This may be used for device to do host memory allocation in a way that
is more efficient for copy the host memory to the device.
Also rename and group device memory allocation functions for clarity.

With host mapped memory these can be shared, and we can't get back the
original host pointer unless we make a copy which is inefficient.
Also add asserts to verify this doesn't happen.

This was not thread safe. And it's better to do them one by one to avoid
moving more than is needed, when another thread already freed up enough.
Thanks to Jorn Visser for investigating and finding this problem.

Should be a bit more efficient, and it fixes host memory fallback bugs,
where host memory was incorrectly freed during re-copy. For the case
where memory should get reallocated on the host, a new mem_move_to_host
was added.

Turns out it is possible to have code to pick up wrong class
when defining a friend:
```
intern\cycles\device/memory.h(255): warning C4099: 'GPUDevice': type name first seen using 'struct' now seen using 'class'
source\blender\gpu\GPU_platform.hh(69): note: see declaration of 'GPUDevice'
```
Now made it so the classes have forward declaration in the CCL
namespace, avoiding possible conflict with the classes with the
same name in the global namespace.

Some of the device memory objects had their host_pointer overwritten
with another CPU-side buffer after allocation. This leads to a leak of
host memory allocated by the device_memory.
There are few remaining places where the host_pointer is assigned and
those seems to be fine because the memory was not yet allocated with
a alloc() call.
While the approach in this change is not very ideal, it is small and
potentially could be ported to the LTS tracks. More ideal solution
would be to utilize device_vector::give_data().

This enables scenes with all textures not fitting in GPU
memory to finally render. For scenes that are fitting,
no functional change or performance change is expected.

This patch adds a "shadow" prefix & array index suffixes to the shadow integrator state buffer names. This eliminates confusion when looking at GPU traces etc.

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

To improve mesh upload speeds and reduce the size of the scene data which allows larger scenes to be rendered.
The meshes in Cycles are currently stored as flattened meshes, where each triangle is stored as a set of 3 vertices. Unflattening writes out the vertices in a list according to the index buffer. This uses a lot of memory and for current hardware does not provide a noticeable benefit. This change unflattens the mesh by directly using the meshes vertex and index buffers directly and skips the unflattening. This change allows for larger scenes and also a reduction in the sizes of the meshes. Further it results in a decrease the amount of time it takes to upload the data to a GPU. This is especially important for when multiple GPUs are used in a single machine.

Host memory fallback in CUDA and HIP devices is almost identical.
We remove duplicated code and create a shared generic version that
other devices (oneAPI) will be able to use.

* 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.
* 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.

There are two things achieved by this change:
- No possible downcast of size_t to int when calculating motion steps.
- Disambiguate call to `min()` which was for some reason considered
ambiguous on 32bit platforms `min(int, unsigned int)`.
- Do the same for the `max()` call to keep them symmetrical.
On an implementation side the `min()` is defined for a fixed width
integer type to disambiguate uint from size_t on 32bit platforms,
and yet be able to use it for 32bit operands on 64bit platforms without
upcast.
This ended up in a bit bigger change as the conditional compile-in of
functions is easiest if the functions is templated. Making the functions
templated required to remove the other source of ambiguity which is
`algorithm.h` which was pulling min/max from std.
Now it is the `math.h` which is the source of truth for min/max.
It was only one place which was relying on `algorithm.h` for these
functions, hence the choice of `math.h` as the safest and least
intrusive.
Fixes 32bit platforms (such as i386) in Debian package build system.

This patch adds the Metal host-side code:
- Add all core host-side Metal backend files (device_impl, queue, etc)
- Add MetalRT BVH setup files
- Integrate with Cycles device enumeration code
- Revive `path_source_replace_includes` in util/path (required for MSL compilation)
This patch also includes a couple of small kernel-side fixes:
- Add an implementation of `lgammaf` for Metal [Nemes, Gergő (2010), "New asymptotic expansion for the Gamma function", Archiv der Mathematik](https://users.renyi.hu/~gergonemes/)
- include "work_stealing.h" inside the Metal context class because it accesses state now

Happens when device runs out of memory and Cycles is moving some
textures to the host memory.
The delayed memory free for OptiX BVH was moving data from one
device_memory to another, leaving the original device memory in
an invalid state. This was ruining the allocation map in the CUDA
device which is using pointer to the device_memory.
This change makes it so the memory pointer is stolen from BVH
into the delayed memory free list.
Additionally, forbid copying and moving instances of device_memory
and added sanity checks in the device implementation.

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.
