There are some changes in API of OpenImageIO, but those are quite
simple to keep working with older and newer library versions.

This commit adds a sample-based profiler that runs during CPU rendering and collects statistics on time spent in different parts of the kernel (ray intersection, shader evaluation etc.) as well as time spent per material and object.
The results are currently not exposed in the user interface or per Python yet, to see the stats on the console pass the "--cycles-print-stats" argument to Cycles (e.g. "./blender -- --cycles-print-stats").
Unfortunately, there is no clear way to extend this functionality to CUDA or OpenCL, so it is CPU-only for now.

For some reason when building with gcc-7.2 (which is default
in previous Ubuntu LTS) the guarded allocator is not being
properly instantiated.
Doesn't happen with newer version of gcc-7 which is 7.3, and
also doesn't happen with gcc-6 and gcc-8.
Would be nice to know what is wrong, but for the time being
committing workaround which keeps Blender users happy.
Note that this is turned off by default and must be enabled at build time with the CMake WITH_CYCLES_EMBREE flag.
Embree must be built as a static library with ray masking turned on, the `make deps` scripts have been updated accordingly.
There, Embree is off by default too and must be enabled with the WITH_EMBREE flag.
Using Embree allows for much faster rendering of deformation motion blur while reducing the memory footprint.
TODO: GPU implementation, deduplication of data, leveraging more of Embrees features (e.g. tessellation cache).

This allows for extra output passes that encode automatic object and material masks
for the entire scene. It is an implementation of the Cryptomatte standard as
introduced by Psyop. A good future extension would be to add a manifest to the
export and to do plenty of testing to ensure that it is fully compatible with other
renderers and compositing programs that use Cryptomatte.
Internally, it adds the ability for Cycles to have several passes of the same type
that are distinguished by their name.

While building the AVX kernel, util_avxf.h/avxb.h were using some AVX2 intrinsics,
these were never called, so it wasn't a run-time issue, but the intrinsics headers
on centos excluded the AVX2 prototypes when building the AVX kernel causing build errors.
This commit cleans up the improper usage of the AVX2 intrinsics and provides AVX
fallback implementations for future use.

This isn't really possible to do the shuffle which was attempted to do.
While it's possible to achieve expected behavior, the function needs to
be rewritten. Since it's not used anyway, it's simpler to remove it for
now.
The assembler template was backing up and restoring ebx, which is
fair enough. However, this did not prevent compiler for putting
result variables to ebx. This was causing data corruption.
In order to prevent this easiest solution is to list ebx in clobbers
for the assembly.
This is an initial implementation of BVH8 optimization structure
and packated triangle intersection. The aim is to get faster ray
to scene intersection checks.

As memory goes, peak usage raises by about 4.7% in a complex
scenes.
Note that BVH8 is disabled when using OSL, this is because OSL
kernel does not get per-microarchitecture optimizations and
hence always considers BVH3 is used.
Original BVH8 patch from Anton Gavrikov.
Batched triangles intersection from Victoria Zhislina.
Extra work and tests and fixes from Maxym Dmytrychenko.
