Cycles: Implement better ellipse sampling for area lights
Update:
- Axes are now consistent across samples to solve the noise boundary artifacts
- Eigensolver is replaced with an efficient 3x3 symmetric implementation
I've also looked into…

Quick comparison is attached, note the artifacts in the solid-angle version.
Cycles: Implement better ellipse sampling for area lights
Update: The code implements the numerical (non-lookup-based) solid angle sampling now.
TODOs:
- There are numerical issues are grazing angles (and sometimes domain exceptions in
ellint_3
) -…

Found the issue: During viewport navigation, the number of samples would be set to 4 even if the configured number was lower. In this case, the configured number was 1, so `blue_noise_sequence_leng…
