Regular rendering now works tiled, and supports save buffers to save memory
during render and cache render results.

Various bug fixes by Sergey and Campbell.
* Fix for reading freed memory in some node setups.
* Fix incorrect memory read when synchronizing mesh motion.
* Fix crash appearing when direct light usage is different on different layers.
* Fix for vector pass gives wrong result in some circumstances.
* Fix for wrong resolution used for rendering Render Layer node.
* Option to cancel rendering when doing initial synchronization.
* No more texture limit when using CPU render.
* Many fixes for new tiled rendering.
* Location: Basically the same as the location from Object Info node for object instances on particles, but in principle there could be additional offsets for dupli objects, so included for completeness.
* Size: Single float scale of the particle. Also directly translates to object scale for current dupli objects, but handy to have as a single float to start with instead of a scale vector (currently not even exposed in Object Info).
* Rotation: This is a quaternion, which are not yet supported by Cycles nodes. The float4 is copied to internal Cycles data and stored in the particles texture data, but the node doesn't have a socket for it yet and the data is not yet written to the stack. Code is just commented out so could be enabled quickly if/when rotation support is added to cycles.
* Velocity: Linear velocity vector of particles.
* Angular Velocity: Angular velocity around principle axes.
The texture data is currently packed tightly into the particles texture, which saves a few bytes, but requires an additional texture lookup for some vector attributes which spread over two float4s. Could also add another float4 to particle size to avoid this.
The reason is that the per-node updates used for Reroute node type inheritance are not supposed to be looking at connected nodes, they are purely for "local" updates. For this sort of "global" update which requires depth-first search, the update function on the node tree level must be used instead.
The image format for the node and sockets were not properly initialized. The file output node only supports image types (not movies), so it needs to check for proper format type after copying from the render settings.
Issue was caused by threading conflict between compositor output node which
is freeing buffers used by render result image and image draw code which
could use buffers at the same time as compositor frees this buffers.
Solved by adding adding lock around viewer image invalidation and image
drawing.
Use renamed LOCK_PREVIEW mutex for this, which si not called LOCK_DRAW_IMAGE.
With new compositor locking for preview is not needed so it could be removed.
Added the same lock around viewer operation which also frees buffers used
by viewer image. It's actually quite difficult to check whether this is
indeed needed. This code seems to be using acquire/release technique, but
somehow acquiring ImBuf before invalidating it in compositor operation
doesn't resolve the issue, so probably it's not actually locking acquire
and things should be checked deeper.
- Fixed issues with calculating matte with balance != 0.5
It used to be used concave combination of minimal and maximal
channel values which could be inpredictable.
Use concave combination of two non-major channels sorted
by their index, so such combination would always use the same
coefficients for particular non-major channels.
- Added despill balance slider which defines balance between
non-major channels used for calculating average of two
colors. Difference between average value and pixel value of
major screen channel defines amount of despill. Balance of
0.5 gives the same behavior as it was before this slider
was added.
