Michael Jones 8077384e3a Cycles: Improve Metal kernel specialisation
This improves the existing scene specialisation mechanism by replacing "kernel_data.kernel_features" with a function constant. It doesn't cause any additional compilation requests, but allows the backend compiler to eliminate more dead code. An additional compiler hint is provided for dead-stripping "volume_stack_enter_exit" which results in slightly faster rendering of non-volumetric scenes.
