* Rename "Auto Tiles" to "Use Tiling", it's not really automatic and
confusing with the old auto tile size add-on.
* Rename "Adaptive" scrambling distance to "Automatic", to avoid confusion
with adaptive sampling.

This patch adds a CMake option "WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG" which builds cycles with
a feature that allows debugging/selecting the direct-light sampling strategy.
The same option may later be used to add other debugging features that could
affect performance in release builds.
The three options are:
* Forward path tracing (e.g., via BSDF or phase function)
* Next-event estimation
* Multiple importance sampling combination of the previous two methods
Such a feature is useful for debugging light different sampling, evaluation,
and pdf methods (e.g., for light sources and BSDFs).

This patch exposes the sampling offset option to Blender. It is located in the "Sampling > Advanced" panel.
For example, this can be useful to parallelize rendering and distribute different chunks of samples for each computer to render.
---
I also had to add this option to `RenderWork` and `RenderScheduler` classes so that the sample count in the status string can be calculated correctly.

The current UI for the Scramble Distance patch is grayed out
depending on different settings that are enabled. However it
didn't make much sense to me so I have updated when the UI is
grayed out to hopefully make more sense to the end user.

Adds scrambling distance to the PMJ sampler. This is based
on the work by Mathieu Menuet in D12318 who created the original
implementation for the Sobol sampler.

Cycles:Distance Scrambling for Cycles Sobol Sampler
This option implements micro jittering an is based on the INRIA
research paper [[ https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01325702/document | on micro jittering ]]
and work by Lukas Stockner for implementing the scrambling distance.
It works by controlling the correlation between pixels by either using
a user supplied value or an adaptive algorithm to limit the maximum
deviation of the sample values between pixels.
This is a follow up of https://developer.blender.org/D12316

Add a Fast GI Method, either Replace for the existing behavior, or Add

* Additional structs added to the hipew loader for device props
* Adds hipRTC functions to the loader for future usage
* Enables CPU+GPU usage for HIP
* Cleanup to the adaptive kernel compilation process
* Fix for kernel compilation failures with HIP with latest master

Mention required CUDA and OptiX compute capability and minimum driver
version. For HIP there is a placeholder until we know the supported
architectures.

This previously only work for CPU rendering, and isn't that practical to get
working in the new architecture.

NOTE: this feature is not ready for user testing, and not yet enabled in daily
builds. It is being merged now for easier collaboration on development.
HIP is a heterogenous compute interface allowing C++ code to be executed on
GPUs similar to CUDA. It is intended to bring back AMD GPU rendering support
on Windows and Linux.
https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/HIP.
As of the time of writing, it should compile and run on Linux with existing
HIP compilers and driver runtimes. Publicly available compilers and drivers
for Windows will come later.
See task T91571 for more details on the current status and work remaining
to be done.

This includes much improved GPU rendering performance, viewport interactivity,
new shadow catcher, revamped sampling settings, subsurface scattering anisotropy,
new GPU volume sampling, improved PMJ sampling pattern, and more.
Some features have also been removed or changed, breaking backwards compatibility.
Including the removal of the OpenCL backend, for which alternatives are under
development.

This patch exposes the Cycles Alembic Procedural through the MeshSequenceCache
modifier in order to use and test it from Blender.
To enable it, one has to switch the render feature set to experimental and
activate the Procedural in the modifier. An Alembic Procedural is then
created for each CacheFile from Blender set to use the Procedural, and each
Blender object having a MeshSequenceCache modifier is added to list of objects
of the right procedural.
The procedural's parameters derive from the CacheFile's properties which are
already exposed in the UI through the modifier, although more Cycles specific
options might be added in the future.
As there is currently no cache controls and since we load all the data at the
beginning of the render session, the procedural is only available during
viewport renders at the moment. When an Alembic procedural is rendered, data
from the archive are not read on the Blender side.
If a Cycles render is not active and the CacheFile is set to use the Cycles Procedural,
bounding boxes are used to display the objects in the scene as a signal that the
objects are not processed by Blender anymore. This is standard in other DCCs.
However this does not reduce the memory usage from Blender as the Alembic data
was already loaded either during an import or during a .blend file read.
This is mostly a hack to test the Cycles Alembic procedural until we have a
better Blender side mechanism for letting renderers load their own geometry,
which will be based on import and export settings on Collections (T68933).

The immediate reason for this is that we want to be able to initialize them
to different defaults for light objects, which is hard with Python properties.
But in general it is useful to be able to share these with other renderers.
As a side effect, Eevee now supports a per-object holdout instead of only
per-collection.

The goal: allow to easily use AO approximation in scenes which combines
both small and large scale objects.
The idea: use per-object AO distance which will allow to override world
settings. Instancer object will "propagate" its AO distance to all its
instances unless the instance defines own distance (this allows to
modify AO distance in the shot files, without requiring to modify props
used in the shots.
Available from the new Fats GI Approximation panel in object properties.

WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG was used for rendering BVH debugging passes. But since we
mainly use Embree an OptiX now, this information is no longer important.
WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG_NAN will enable additional checks for NaNs and invalid values
in the kernel, for Cycles developers. Previously these asserts where enabled in
all debug builds, but this is too likely to crash Blender in scenes that render
fine regardless of the NaNs. So this is behind a CMake option now.

Offset rays from the flat surface to match where they would be for a smooth
surface as specified by the normals. In the shading panel there is now a
Shading Offset (existing option) and Geometry Offset (new).
The Geometry Offset works as follows:
* 0: disabled
* 0.001: only terminated triangles (normal points to the light, geometry
doesn't) are affected
* 0.1 (default): triangles at grazing angles are affected, and the effect
fades out
* 1: all triangles are affected
Limitations:
* The artifact is still visible in some cases, it could be that some quads
require to be treated specifically as quads.
* Inconsistent normals cause artifacts.
* If small objects cast shadows to a big low poly surface, the shadows can
appear to be in a wrong place - because the surface moved slightly above
the geometry. This can be noticed only at grazing angles to light.
* Approximated surfaces of two non-intersecting low-poly objects can overlap
that causes off-the-wall shadows.
Generally, using one or a few levels of subdivision can get rid of artifacts
faster than before.

This is giving too bright pixel values, as the sample scaling and random number
sample are wrong. The proper fix for this is complicated. It will be solved in
Cycles X, for now we disable this combination.
