Add "stageMetersPerUnit" render setting for USD files that have that set to
something other than the default (e.g. exported by Blender).
And fix a crash when an application creates a Hydra render pass on a thread
that does not have an OpenGL context current.

Long term, this should replace the XML format. This reuses the Hydra render
delegate implementation, and so supports the same features. The same command
line options and GUI work for both XML and USD also.
The implementation of this is still disabled, waiting for some refactoring of
USD library linking. However we want the Cycles code to be in sync between
repositories for the 3.2 release.

This patch adds a Hydra render delegate to Cycles, allowing Cycles to be used for rendering
in applications that provide a Hydra viewport. The implementation was written from scratch
against Cycles X, for integration into the Blender repository to make it possible to continue
developing it in step with the rest of Cycles. For this purpose it follows the style of the rest of
the Cycles code and can be built with a CMake option
(`WITH_CYCLES_HYDRA_RENDER_DELEGATE=1`) similar to the existing standalone version
of Cycles.
Since Hydra render delegates need to be built against the exact USD version and other
dependencies as the target application is using, this is intended to be built separate from
Blender (`WITH_BLENDER=0` CMake option) and with support for library versions different
from what Blender is using. As such the CMake build scripts for Windows had to be modified
slightly, so that the Cycles Hydra render delegate can e.g. be built with MSVC 2017 again
even though Blender requires MSVC 2019 now, and it's possible to specify custom paths to
the USD SDK etc. The codebase supports building against the latest USD release 22.03 and all
the way back to USD 20.08 (with some limitations).
