Meshes without vertex normals were not handled correctly.

This save a little memory and copying in the kernel by storing only a 4x3
matrix instead of a 4x4 matrix. We already did this in a few places, and
those don't need to be special exceptions anymore now.
|
|
This is in preparation of making Transform affine only, and also gives us
a little extra type safety so we don't accidentally treat it as a regular
4x4 matrix.

The purpose of the previous code refactoring is to make the code more readable,
but combined with this change benchmarks also render about 2-3% faster with an
NVIDIA Titan Xp.

OpenCL is C based, so no support for operators.

around the volume.
We generate a tight mesh around the active voxels of the volume in order
to effectively skip empty space, and start volume ray marching as close
to interesting volume data as possible. See code comments for details on
how the mesh generation algorithm works.
This gives up to 2x speedups in some scenes.

This is more important now that we will have tigther volume bounds that
we hit multiple times. It also avoids some noise due to RR previously
affecting these surfaces, which shouldn't have been the case and should
eventually be fixed for transparent BSDFs as well.
For non-volume scenes I found no performance impact on NVIDIA or AMD.
For volume scenes the noise decrease and fixed artifacts are worth the
little extra render time, when there is any.

Now the only missing bit seems to be in Cycles to pass depsgraph to
builtin_image_float_pixels().
Ideally we could get evaluation context instead of using depsgraph + settings.
But for the other rna EvaluationContext functions this is how we are doing.

This still does not make point density to work in Cycles, but at least it pass
the depsgraph down the line.
Note this was working fine before the depsgraph/render refactor to pass
evaluated depsgraph to the engines.
|
|
Point density texture and motion blur are still broken, and many more changes
are needed in general to used evaluated datablocks.

User notes
----------
Compositing, rendering of multi-layers in Eevee should be fully working now.
Development notes
-----------------
Up until now we were still using the same depsgraph for rendering and viewport
evaluation. And we had to go out of our ways to be sure the depsgraphs were
updated.
Now we iterate over the (to be rendered) view layers and create a depsgraph to
each one, fully evaluated and call the render engines (Cycles, Eevee, ...) with
this viewlayer/depsgraph/evaluation context.
At this time we are not handling data persistency, Depsgraph is created from
scratch prior to rendering each frame. So I got rid of most of the partial
update calls we had during the render pipeline.
Cycles: Brecht Van Lommel did a patch to tackle some of the required Cycles
changes but this commit mark these changes as TODOs. Basically Cycles needs to
render one layer at a time.

Similar to the Principled BSDF, this should make it easier to set up volume
materials. Smoke and fire can be rendererd with just a single principled
volume node, the appropriate attributes will be used when available. The node
also works for simpler homogeneous volumes like water or mist.

This breaks backwards compatibility some, making smoke colors brighters
than before. But it is also more correct this way.
|
|
A volume shader should be able to request attributes, and still be rendered
as homogeneous if no volume attributes are available for the object.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This mainly helps with dense volumes, rendering can be 30% faster with
little noise increase in such scenes.

We now continue transparent paths after diffuse/glossy/transmission/volume
bounces are exceeded. This avoids unexpected boundaries in volumes with
transparent boundaries. It is also required for MIS to work correctly with
transparent surfaces, as we also continue through these in shadow rays.
The main visible changes is that volumes will now be lit by the background
even at volume bounces 0, same as surfaces.
Fixes T53914 and T54103.

Unify the path and branched path indirect SSS code. No performance impact
found on CUDA, for AMD split kernel the extra code was already there.
