for now subtype is not defined, but once we start parsing the metadata we can set texture inputs as FILEPATH
also, it takes relative strings and convert to absolute for all strings (which is arguably a good solution, but
should work for now)

These changes require an OSL build from this repository:
https://github.com/DingTo/OpenShadingLanguage
The lib/ OSL has not been updated yet, so you might want to keep OSL disabled
until that is done.
Still todo:
* Auto update for external .osl files not working currently, press update manually
* Node could indicate better when a refresh is needed
* Attributes like UV or generated coordinates may be missing when requested from
an OSL shader, need a way to request them to be loaded by cycles
* Expose string, enum and other non-socket parameters
* Scons build support
Thanks to Thomas, Lukas and Dalai for the implementation.
transmission pass and filter glossy option.
The BSDF closure class is now more similar to the SVM closures, and includes
some flags and labels that are needed to properly categorize the BSDF's for
render passes. Phong closure is gone for the moment, needs to be adapated to
the new structure still.
The sampled color ramp data is passed to OSL as a color array. This has to be done as actual float[3] array though, since the Cycles float3 type actually contains 4 floats, leading to shifting color components in the array.
Additional parameter set functions for arrays have been added to the Cycles OSL interface for this purpose.
decided it's better to render objects as either surface or volume.
This may break the volume rendering patch, but shaders with volume closures still
get tagged as having volume closures, so it should be fixable without too many
changes.
