This is the first of a sequence of changes to support compiling Cycles kernels as MSL (Metal Shading Language) in preparation for a Metal GPU device implementation.
MSL requires that all pointer types be declared with explicit address space attributes (device, thread, etc...). There is already precedent for this with Cycles' address space macros (ccl_global, ccl_private, etc...), therefore the first step of MSL-enablement is to apply these consistently. Line-for-line this represents the largest change required to enable MSL. Applying this change first will simplify future patches as well as offering the emergent benefit of enhanced descriptiveness.
The vast majority of deltas in this patch fall into one of two cases:
- Ensuring ccl_private is specified for thread-local pointer types
- Ensuring ccl_global is specified for device-wide pointer types
Additionally, the ccl_addr_space qualifier can be removed. Prior to Cycles X, ccl_addr_space was used as a context-dependent address space qualifier, but now it is either redundant (e.g. in struct typedefs), or can be replaced by ccl_global in the case of pointer types. Associated function variants (e.g. lcg_step_float_addrspace) are also redundant.
In cases where address space qualifiers are chained with "const", this patch places the address space qualifier first. The rationale for this is that the choice of address space is likely to have the greater impact on runtime performance and overall architecture.
The final part of this patch is the addition of a metal/compat.h header. This is partially complete and will be extended in future patches, paving the way for the full Metal implementation.

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.

all the changes since intermediate changes would often fail building or tests.

It is supposed to be two spaces before comment stating which if
else/endif statements corresponds to. Was mainly violated in the
header guards.

sc->T and sc->data2 were behind __HAIR__ ifdef, now they are not anymore, so we can always assign the correct value.

Most compilers will probably optimize that out, but I still don't see a reason to keep it.

Precision of the fast functions seems to be enough in there and
since the code was heavily using inverse trigonometric functions
this change gives few percent speedup on Victor's hair.
From the tests files from ctests storage doesn't have any meaningful
difference, hair on Victor is all below 4% absolute error and only
few pixels are exceeding 1% absolute difference.
In any case, let it be as it is currently so it allows us to have
fast math file in sources for it's further evaluation and possible
usage in other areas as well.

BSDF sampler function shouldn't give labels it's not intended to do.
That said reflection shouldn't give transmission ray and transmission
give reflection ray.
Added an assert in the transmission sampling but reflection still
needs some investigation because even after recent fixes the check
for projection onto the reflected ray could give both positive and
negative values.
It shouldn't have any affect on renders just makes internal logic
consistent and unleashes an issue to be investigate further.

This to avoids build conflicts with libc++ on FreeBSD, these __ prefixed values
are reserved for compilers. I apologize to anyone who has patches or branches
and has to go through the pain of merging this change, it may be easiest to do
these same replacements in your code and then apply/merge the patch.

A new hair bsdf node, with two closure options, is added. These closures allow the generation of the reflective and transmission components of hair. The node allows control of the highlight colour, roughness and angular shift.
Llimitations include:
-No glint or fresnel adjustments.
-The 'offset' is un-used when triangle primitives are used.
