The distinction existed for legacy reasons, to easily port of Embree
intersection code without affecting the main vector types. However we are now
using SIMD for these types as well, so no good reason to keep the distinction.
Also more consistently pass these vector types by value in inline functions.
Previously it was partially changed for functions used by Metal to avoid having
to add address space qualifiers, simple to do it everywhere.
Also removes function declarations for vector math headers, serves no real
purpose.

This was a floating point precision issue - or, to be more precise,
an issue with how Cycles split floats into the integer and fractional
parts for Perlin noise.
For coordinates below -2^24, the integer could be wrong, leading to
the fractional part being outside of 0-1 range, which breaks all sorts
of other things. 2^24 sounds like a lot, but due to how the detail
octaves work, it's not that hard to reach when combined with a large
scale.
Since this code is originally based on OSL, I checked if they changed
it in the meantime, and sure enough, there's a fix for it:
https://github.com/OpenImageIO/oiio/commit/5c9dc68391e9
So, this basically just ports over that change to Cycles.
The original code mentions being faster, but as pointed out in the
linked commit, the performance impact is actually irrelevant.
I also checked in a simple scene with eight Noise textures at
detail 15 (with >90% of render time being spent on the noise), and
the render time went from 13.06sec to 13.05sec. So, yeah, no issue.

This helps with debugging, and gives a slightly closer match between CPU
and CUDA/HIP/Metal renders when it comes to ray tracing precision.

This patch unifies the names of math functions for different data types and uses
overloading instead. The goal is to make it possible to swap out all the float3
variables containing RGB data with something else, with as few as possible
changes to the code. It's a requirement for future spectral rendering patches.

* Replace license text in headers with SPDX identifiers.
* Remove specific license info from outdated readme.txt, instead leave details
to the source files.
* Add list of SPDX license identifiers used, and corresponding license texts.
* Update copyright dates while we're at it.

This patch adds MetalRT support to Cycles kernel code. It is mostly additive in nature or confined to Metal-specific code, however there are a few areas where this interacts with other code:
- MetalRT closely follows the Optix implementation, and in some cases (notably handling of transforms) it makes sense to extend Optix special-casing to MetalRT. For these generalisations we now have `__KERNEL_GPU_RAYTRACING__` instead of `__KERNEL_OPTIX__`.
- MetalRT doesn't support primitive offsetting (as with `primitiveIndexOffset` in Optix), so we define and populate a new kernel texture, `__object_prim_offset`, containing per-object primitive / curve-segment offsets. This is referenced and applied in MetalRT intersection handlers.
- Two new BVH layout enum values have been added: `BVH_LAYOUT_METAL` and `BVH_LAYOUT_MULTI_METAL_EMBREE` for XPU mode). Some host-side enum case handling has been updated where it is trivial to do so.

This patch contains many small leftover fixes and additions that are
required for Metal-enablement:
- Address space fixes and a few other small compile fixes
- Addition of missing functionality to the Metal adapter headers
- Addition of various scattered `__KERNEL_METAL__` blocks (e.g. for
atomic support & maths functions)

Introduce a packed_float3 type for smaller storage that is exactly 3
floats, instead of 4. For computation float3 is still used since it can
use SIMD instructions.

saturate is depricated in favour of __saturatef this replaces saturate
with __saturatef on CUDA by createing a saturatef function which replaces
all instances of saturate and are hooked up to the correct function on all
platforms.

Remove prefix of filenames that is the same as the folder name. This used
to help when #includes were using individual files, but now they are always
relative to the cycles root directory and so the prefixes are redundant.
For patches and branches, git merge and rebase should be able to detect the
renames and move over code to the right file.
