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).

cmake's link_directories will supply forward slashes for the search paths, the msvc linker has some issues with that, while it will search for the needed libs just fine, the incremental linker gets fed forward slashes for some libs, while the previous binary has backward slashes in it's metadata, the linker assumes obj files got added and performs a full link instead of an incremental link. This change brings down the link time with newer msvc versions for a trivial edit down from a few minutes to a few seconds.

The compiler version has changed in the last VS2017 update to 1911 and the old 1910 version is not working anymore.

The Issue
=======
For a long time now MinGW has been unsupported and unmaintained and at this point,
it looks like something that we should just leave behind and move on.
Why Remove
==========
One of the big motivations for MinGW back in the day is that it was free compared to MSVC which was licensed based.
However, now that this is no longer true we have basically stopped updating the need CMake files.
Along with the CMake files, there are several patches to the extern libs needed to make this work. For example, see:
https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/master/extern/carve/patches/mingw_w64.patch
If we wanted to keep MinGW then we would need to make more custom patches to the external libs and
this is not something our platform maintainers are willing to do.
For example, here is the patches needed to build python: https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-python3

Currently the tests don't run on windows for the following reasons
1) render_graph_finalize has an linking issue due missing a bunch of libraries (not sure why this is not an issue for linux)
2) This one is more interesting, in test/python/cmakelists.txt ${TEST_BLENDER_EXE_BARE} and ${TEST_BLENDER_EXE} are flat out wrong, but for some reason this doesn't matter for most tests, cause ctest will actually go out and look for the executable and fix the path for you *BUT* only for the command, if you use them in any of the parameters it'll happily pass on the wrong path.
3) on linux you can just run a .py file, windows is not as awesome and needs to be told to run it with pyton.
4) had to use the NAME/COMMAND long form of add_test otherwise $<TARGET_FILE:blender> doesn't get expanded, why? beats me.
5) missing idiff.exe for msvc2015/x64 in the libs folder.
This patch addresses 1-4 , but given I have no working Linux build environment, I'm unsure if it'll break anything there
5 has been fixed in rBL61751

Nobody appears to know why this option was on (and just on for just x64 at that)

turns out it's a C++ lib now-days and it *DOES* require debug libs.
This reverts commit bde5eb8b6303d8d92b7c41d4a3f041bbb73c162d.

The option is controlled with the WITH_WINDOWS_CODESIGN option and needs:
- Signtool must be found on the system, the standard windows sdk folders will be searched for it.
- The path to the pfx file (WINDOWS_CODESIGN_PFX)
- The password for the pfx , this can either be set by the WINDOWS_CODESIGN_PFX_PASSWORD variable but given that ends up in CMakeCache.txt (which might be undesirable) there is a backup option of setting the PFXPASSWORD environment variable on the system.

libraries and use hardcoded paths instead.

Basically title says it all.
The goal is to make platform maintenance easier, so you don't have
to constantly scroll back and forth looking for if() branches to
check which exact platform you're currently working on.
Ideally we also would move option defaults to a platform files,
but that i'm not sure how to implement in a nice way yet.
