This patch adds the Metal host-side code:
- Add all core host-side Metal backend files (device_impl, queue, etc)
- Add MetalRT BVH setup files
- Integrate with Cycles device enumeration code
- Revive `path_source_replace_includes` in util/path (required for MSL compilation)
This patch also includes a couple of small kernel-side fixes:
- Add an implementation of `lgammaf` for Metal [Nemes, Gergő (2010), "New asymptotic expansion for the Gamma function", Archiv der Mathematik](https://users.renyi.hu/~gergonemes/)
- include "work_stealing.h" inside the Metal context class because it accesses state now

* Spot lights are now handled as disks aligned with the direction of the
spotlight instead of view aligned disks.
* Point light is now handled separately from the spot light, to fix a case
where multiple lights are intersected in a row. Before the origin of the
ray was the previously intersected light and not the origin of the initial
ray traced from the last surface/volume interaction.
This makes both strategies in multiple importance sampling converge to the same
result. It changes the render results in some scenes, for example the junkshop
scene where there are large point lights overlapping scene geometry and each
other.

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.

BVH2 triangle intersection was broken on the GPU since packed floats can't
be loaded directly into SSE. The better long term solution for performance
would be to build a BVH2 for GPU and Embree for CPU, similar to what we do
for OptiX.

MSL requires that constant address space literals be declared at program
scope. This patch moves the `blackbody_table_r/g/b` and `cie_colour_match`
constants into separate files so they can be declared at the appropriate scope.

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)

Instead of printing debug flags listing various CPU and GPU settings that
may or may not be used, print when we are using them. This include CPU
kernel types, OptiX debugging and CUDA and HIP adaptive compilation. BVH

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

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.

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.

NOTE: this feature is not ready for user testing, and not yet enabled in daily
builds. It is being merged now for easier collaboration on development.
HIP is a heterogenous compute interface allowing C++ code to be executed on
GPUs similar to CUDA. It is intended to bring back AMD GPU rendering support
on Windows and Linux.
https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/HIP.
As of the time of writing, it should compile and run on Linux with existing
HIP compilers and driver runtimes. Publicly available compilers and drivers
for Windows will come later.
See task T91571 for more details on the current status and work remaining
to be done.

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.

Ideally can use assert() checks instead of suppressing the check entirely,

`refract` and `faceforward` are standard functions in GLSL, OSL and Godot shader languages.
Adding these functions provides Blender shader artists access to these standard functions.

Before this change messages of ERROR and above were printed.
This change makes it so LOG(INFO), LOG(WARNING), LOG(ERROR)
and LOG(FATAL) will be printed to the console by default
(without --debug-libmv and --debug-cycles).
On a user level nothing is changed because neither INFO nor
WARNING severity are used in our codebase. For developers this
change allows to use LOG(INFO) to print relevant for debugging
information. Bering able to see WARNING messages is also nice,
since those are not related to debugging, but are about some
detected "bad" state.
After this change the LOG(INFO) is really treated as a printf.
Why not to use printf to begin with? Because it is often more
annoying to print non-scalar types. Why not to use cout? Just
a convenience, so that all type of logging is handled in the
same way. When one is familiar with Glog used in the area, it
is easy to use same utilities during development. Also, it is
easy to change LOG(INFO) to VLOG(2) when development is done
and one wants to keep the log print but make it only appear
when using special verbosity flags.
The initial reason why default severity was set to maximum
possible value is because of misuse of VLOG with verbosity
level 0, which is the same as LOG(INFO). This is also why
back in the days --debug-libmv was introduced.
Now there is some redundancy between --debug-libmv, --debug-cyles
and --verbose, but changes in their meaning will cause user
level side effects.
