Fix (studio-reported) missing RNA path for EEVEE render passes.

For those EEVEE passes a bit of trickery with pointer offsets allows to
get the owning viewlayer, so path generation is not too bad.

Also moved ViewLayer path generation itself into a public utils, to
avoid duplicating code.

NOTE: Doing the same for AOV would be needed, but since pointer offsets
won't help us here to find the owning viewlayer, not sure how to do it
nicely yet (only solution I think is to loop over all AOVs of all
ViewLayer of the scene to find it :( ).
