Assume geometry is always potentially animated, since we can't use our heuristic
to detect if the object is potentially animated by looking at modifiers on the
object.
The main original reason for this check was to avoid evaluating subdivision
surfaces for many static objects, which is not happening here anyway.
Partially reverts rB46ae0831134 now that we have a new version of
OSL/OIIO that supports <UVTILE> directly.

It was wrongly writing passes twice, for both the surface entry and exit points.
We can skip code for filtering closures, emission and holdout also, as these do
nothing with only a subsurface diffuse closure present.
OptiX 7.4 adds support for splitting the costly creation of an OptiX
module into smaller tasks that can be executed in parallel on a
thread pool.
This is only really relevant for the "shader_raytrace" kernel variant
as the main one is small and compiles fast either way. It sheds of
a few seconds there (total gain is not massive currently, since it is
difficult for the compiler to split up the huge shading entry point
that is the primary one taking up time, but it is still measurable).

evice_update_preprocess is supposed to detect modified attributes and flag the
device_vector for a copy through device_update_flags. However, since object
attributes are only created in device_update_attributes afterwards, they can't
be included in that check.
Change the function that actually updates the device_vector to tag it as
modified as soon as its content gets updated.

A shader node setup accidentally used the bump normal as emission. Bump
mapping nodes are excluded from light shader evaluation to reduce kernel size
and register pressure, but in that case should write zero instead of leaving
memory uninitialized.
Thanks to Lukas for helping identify the cause.
Inspired by D12936 and D12929, this patch adds general purpose
"Combine Color" and "Separate Color" nodes to Geometry, Compositor,
Shader and Texture nodes.
- Within Geometry Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB" and
"Separate RGB" nodes.
- Within Compositor Nodes, it replaces the existing
"Combine RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA" and "Separate RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA"
nodes.
- Within Texture Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGBA" and
"Separate RGBA" nodes.
- Within Shader Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB/HSV" and
"Separate RGB/HSV" nodes.
Python addons have not been updated to the new nodes yet.
**New shader code**
In node_color.h, color.h and gpu_shader_material_color_util.glsl,
missing methods hsl_to_rgb and rgb_to_hsl are added by directly
converting existing C code. They always produce the same result.
**Old code**
As requested by T96219, old nodes still exist but are not displayed in
the add menu. This means Python scripts can still create them as usual.
Otherwise, versioning replaces the old nodes with the new nodes when
opening .blend files.

The Multiscatter GGX code was missing the same-side checks for incoming and
outgoing directions w.r.t. to shading and geometry normal.
Should not be needed for the Glass variant since it intentionally has both
reflection and transmission.
Add "stageMetersPerUnit" render setting for USD files that have that set to
something other than the default (e.g. exported by Blender).
And fix a crash when an application creates a Hydra render pass on a thread
that does not have an OpenGL context current.
Long term, this should replace the XML format. This reuses the Hydra render
delegate implementation, and so supports the same features. The same command
line options and GUI work for both XML and USD also.
The implementation of this is still disabled, waiting for some refactoring of
USD library linking. However we want the Cycles code to be in sync between
repositories for the 3.2 release.
Ref T96731
* Leave code for building the render delegate against other applications and
their USD libraries to the Cycles repository, since this is not a great fit.
In the Blender repository, always use Blender's USD libraries now that they
include Hydra support.
* Hide non-USD symbols from the hdCycles shared library, to avoid library
version conflicts.
* Share Apple framework linking between the standalone app and plugin.
* Add cycles_hydra module, to be shared between the standalone app and plugin.
* Bring external libs code in sync with standalone repo, adding various missing
libraries.
* Move some cmake include directories to the top level cycles source folder
because we need to control their global order, to ensure we link against the
correct headers with mixed Blender libraries and external USD libraries.
* Float/double promotion warnings were mainly meant for avoiding slow
operatiosn in the kernel. Limit it to that to avoid hard to fix warnings
in Hydra.
* Const warnings in Hydra iterators.
* Unused variable warnings when building without glog.
* Wrong camera enum comparisons in assert.
* PASS_UNUSED is not a pass type, only for pass offsets.
Currently, the `eval` and `pdf` are not explicitly set to zero when a BSDF sample is invalid (e.g., below the upper hemisphere), when calling
`bsdf_sample` or `bsdf_eval`. It is assumed that `eval` and `pdf` are set to zero before these functions are called, which can cause problems if not.
This patch fixes this potential problem by explicitly setting `eval` and `pdf` to zero when the sampled direction is invalid.
I also added a sanity check if `eval` and `pdf` are valid (i.e., >= 0.f).
The check is activated when build in debug mode and with the `WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG` set to `ON`.

When converting from XYZ to RGB it can happen, in some sky models, that the resulting RGB values are negative.
Atm, this is not considered and the returned values for the sky model can be negative.
This patch clamps the returned RGB values to be `= 0.f`

This is a stripped down version of D14645 without the scene specialisation optimisations.
The two major changes in this patch are:
- Enables more aggressive inlining on Apple Silicon resulting in a 1.1x speedup and 10% reduction in spill, at the cost of longer pipeline build times
- Revival of shader binary archives through a new ShaderCache which is shared between MetalDevice instances using the same physical MTLDevice. This mitigates the extra compile times via explicit caching (rather than, as before, relying on the implicit system shader cache which can be purged without notice)
