Allow downloading of source packages of Blender's dependencies, so that
it's easier to provide a "full source archive" that contains the blender
source + all dependencies archives. A `make` command for this will be
introduced soon.
This changes the deps builder slightly to be more flexible with the
origin of our source packages.
To support this a new CMake variable has been added called `PACKAGE_DIR`
where all sources archives will be stored.
default: a directory called `packages` in the build folder.
alternative-default: if a directory called `packages` exists in the
blender source folder that will be used. This is to support the "full
source archive" use case.
The download phase have been moved from the build phase to the configure
phase. Configure will download all sources validate the hashes while
downloading.
All `[depname].cmake` files have been changed to take a local
`file://[path_to_local_tarball]` path rather than a remote URI.
A second requirement was that there needed to be an option to grab the
sources from the blender SVN mirror rather than upstream. For this an
option has been added PACKAGE_USE_UPSTREAM_SOURCES (default ON). The
exact location in SVN still needs to be worked out, I tested with my
local webserver and codewise it checks out. The path that is in there
currently will not work (given there is no mirror there yet).
To build this mirror our local package caches can be used.

By default boost::python in debug configuration links the release
python libraries. Which leads to loading issues with the produced
modules in a debug blender (which does use the debug python libs)
Bjam has an option to switch this to the debug libraries but when
you switch that on it changes the library names for *all* boost
libraries, even ones that don't have anything to do with python
and even the release libraries.
therefore an alternative way has been chosen and we're dealing
with this by adding a define rather than asking bjam to do it.
This this adds the option of building boost::python
in the libs builder, in preparation for future
dependencies that require it (ie pyopenvdb)
disabled by default, can be enabled with the
`WITH_BOOST_PYTHON` cmake option.

Set of fixes which had to be made in order to have dependencies built
on own laptop:
- Require bison as a dependent software. It is required by ISPC.
On macOS it is required to be installed via Homebrew. This is because
Bison from Xcode toolchain is too old.
- Made sure Boost is compiled using clang.
Without this gcc was used, and some unsupported command line argument
was passed to it.
- Modify OGG in a way which does in fact pull fixed sized types.
They are defined in stdint.h.
Without this fix FFmpeg will not detect presence of OGG because the
test program fails to compile.
- Force disable zstd compression and make wepb optional for the TIFF
library. Without this TIFF might pick up development libraries from
Homebrew.

Boost could have picked up system-wide libbz2-dev installed and enable
this compression in iostreams. Nothing really wrong with this, but it
makes it so final Blender binary depends on bz2, which breaks default
linker flags.
This commit makes it so Boost is not using libraries which we don't
need, simplifying linking setup.

This aligns with the VFX reference platform 2020 along with the decision
to stick to Python 3.7, see T68774.
Blosc was downgraded to 1.5 as recommended by the OpenVDB documentation.
IlmBase and OpenEXR are now built together with CMake rather separately
using autoconf.

-No more hardcoded python35/36 tokens in the scripts
-disabled python module for boost, was not used
-Updated patches for python to support building with msvc2013
Note these are intended for platform maintainers, we do not intend to
support users making their own builds with these. For that precompiled
libraries from lib/ should be used.
Implemented by Martijn Berger, Ray Molenkamp and Brecht Van Lommel.
