2020-04-30	Fix long OptiX BVH build times in Cycles with many objects	Patrick Mours
	Looping over all primitives for every object is really slow, so this patch avoids that by moving the necessary assignments inline with the primitive merging done for every geometry.
2020-03-19	Cleanup: `make format` after SortedIncludes change	Dalai Felinto

2020-03-11	Cleanup: remove foreach include from header, conflicts with OpenVDB	Brecht Van Lommel

2020-02-07	Cleanup: split Cycles Hair and Mesh classes, with Geometry base class	Brecht Van Lommel

2019-11-28	Fix assert in Cycles memory statistics when using OptiX on multiple GPUs	Patrick Mours
	The acceleration structure built by OptiX may be different between GPUs, so cannot assume the memory size is the same for all. This fixes that by moving the memory management for all OptiX acceleration structures into the responsibility of each device (was already the case for BLAS previously, now for TLAS too).
2019-09-13	Cycles: add Optix device backend	Patrick Mours
	This uses hardware-accelerated raytracing on NVIDIA RTX graphics cards. It is still currently experimental. Most features are supported, but a few are still missing like baking, branched path tracing and using CPU memory. https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Reference/Release_Notes/2.81/Cycles#NVIDIA_RTX For building with Optix support, the Optix SDK must be installed. See here for build instructions: https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Building_Blender/CUDA Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D5363
