a8c81ffa83 Cycles: Add half precision float support for volumes with NanoVDB
This patch makes it possible to change the precision with which to
store volume data in the NanoVDB data structure (as float, half, or
using variable bit quantization) via the previously unused precision
field in the volume data block.
It makes it possible to further reduce memory usage during
rendering, at a slight cost to the visual detail of a volume.

2890c11cd7 Cycles: add support for volume motion blur
This adds support for rendering motion blur for volumes, using their
velocity field. This works for fluid simulations and imported VDB
volumes. For the latter, the name of the velocity field can be set per
volume object, with automatic detection of velocity fields that are
split into 3 scalar grids.

A new parameter is also added to scale velocity for more artistic control.

Like for Alembic and USD caches, a parameter to set the unit of time in
which the velocity vectors are expressed is also added. For Blender gas
simulations, the velocity unit should always be in seconds, so this is
only exposed for volume objects which may come from external OpenVDB
files.

These parameters are available under the `Render` panels for the fluid
domain and the volume object data properties respectively.

c434782e3a File headers: SPDX License migration
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.

Follow the SPDX license specification: https://spdx.org/licenses

- CMake, GNUmakefile

While most of the source tree has been included

- `./extern/` was left out.
- `./intern/cycles` & `./intern/atomic` are also excluded because they
  use different header conventions.

doc/license/SPDX-license-identifiers.txt has been added to list SPDX all
used identifiers.

See P2788 for the script that automated these edits.

f137022f99 Liquid Simulation Display Options (GSoC 2020)
All the changes made in the branch `soc-2020-fluid-tools` are included in this patch.

**Major changes:**

=== Viewport Display ===

- //Raw voxel display// or //closest (nearest-neighbor)// interpolation for displaying the underlying voxel data of the simulation grids more clearly.
- An option to display //gridlines// when the slicing method is //single//.

==== Grid Display ====

- Visualization for flags, pressure and level-set representation grids with a fixed color coding based on Manta GUI.

==== Vector Display ====

- //**M**arker **A**nd **C**ell// grid visualization options for vector grids like velocity or external forces.
- Made vector display options available for external forces.

==== Coloring options for //gridlines// ====

- Range highlighting and cell filtering options for displaying the simulation grid data more precisely.
- Color gridlines with flags.

- Also, made slicing and interpolation options available for Volume Object.

91694b9b58 Code Style: use "#pragma once" in source directory
This replaces header include guards with `#pragma once`.
A couple of include guards are not removed yet (e.g. `__RNA_TYPES_H__`),
because they are used in other places.

This patch has been generated by P1561 followed by `make format`.

b0a1cf2c9a Objects: add Volume object type, and prototypes for Hair and PointCloud
Only the volume object is exposed in the user interface. It is based on OpenVDB
internally. Drawing and rendering code will follow in another commit.
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Objects/Volume
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Reference/Release_Notes/2.83/Volumes

Hair and PointCloud object types are hidden behind a WITH_NEW_OBJECT_TYPES
build option. These are unfinished, and included only to make it easier to
cooperate on development in the future and avoid tricky merges.
