Random Walk subsurface scattering did look different with OptiX because transmittance is
calculated based on the hit distance, but the OptiX implementation of `scene_intersect_local`
would return the distance in world space, while the Cycles BVH version returns it in object
space. This fixes the problem by simply skipping the object->world transforms in all the
places using the result of `scene_intersect_local` with OptiX.

This means the shader can now be used for procedural texturing. New
settings on the node are Samples, Inside, Local Only and Distance.
Original patch by Lukas with further changes by Brecht.

It is basically brute force volume scattering within the mesh, but part
of the SSS code for faster performance. The main difference with actual
volume scattering is that we assume the boundaries are diffuse and that
all lighting is coming through this boundary from outside the volume.
This gives much more accurate results for thin features and low density.
Some challenges remain however:
* Significantly more noisy than BSSRDF. Adding Dwivedi sampling may help
here, but it's unclear still how much it helps in real world cases.
* Due to this being a volumetric method, geometry like eyes or mouth can
darken the skin on the outside. We may be able to reduce this effect,
or users can compensate for it by reducing the scattering radius in
such areas.
* Sharp corners are quite bright. This matches actual volume rendering
and results in some other renderers, but maybe not so much real world
objects.

The intention of this commit it to address issues mentioned in the
reports T43865,T50164 and T50452.
The code is based on Embree code with some extra vectorization
to speed up single ray to single triangle intersection.
Unfortunately, such a fix is not coming for free. There is some
slowdown for AVX2 processors, mainly due to different vectorization
code, which caused different number of instructions to be executed
and different instructions-per-cycle counters. But on another hand
this commit makes pre-AVX2 platforms such as AVX and SSE4.1 a bit
faster. The prerformance goes as following:
2.78c AVX2 2.78c AVX Patch AVX2 Patch AVX
BMW 05:21.09 06:05.34 05:32.97 (+3.5%) 05:34.97 (-8.5%)
Classroom 16:55.36 18:24.51 17:10.41 (+1.4%) 17:15.87 (-6.3%)
Fishy Cat 08:08.49 08:36.26 08:09.19 (+0.2%) 08:12.25 (-4.7%
Koro 11:22.54 11:45.24 11:13.25 (-1.5%) 11:43.81 (-0.3%)
Barcelone 14:18.32 16:09.46 14:15.20 (-0.4%) 14:25.15 (-10.8%)
On GPU the performance is about 1.5-2% slower in my tests on GTX1080
but afraid we can't do much as a part of this chaneg here and
consider it a price to pay for more proper intersection check.
Made in collaboration with Maxym Dmytrychenko, big thanks to him!

The title says it all actually. Gives up to 10% speedup on test scenes here
on i7-6800K.
Render times on GPU are unreliable here, but there might be some slowdown
caused by watertight nature of intersections.

Mimics how regular triangles are working and makes it more clear where
the stuff is located in the kernel.
Needed to have some forward declarations because of the current placement
of things in the kernel.
