Currently in fractal_noise functions, each subsequent octave doubles the
frequency and reduces the amplitude by half. This patch introduces Roughness
input to Noise and Wave nodes. This multiplier determines how quickly the
amplitudes of the subsequent octaves decrease.
Value of 0.5 will be the default, generating identical noise we had before.
Values above 0.5 will increase influence of each octave resulting in more
"rough" noise, most interesting pattern changes happen there. Values below
0.5 will result in more "smooth" noise.

This patch extends perlin noise to operate in 1D, 2D, 3D, and 4D
space. The noise code has also been refactored to be more readable.
The Color output and distortion patterns changed, so this patch
breaks backward compatibility. This is due to the fact that we
now use random offsets as noise seeds, as opposed to swizzling
and constants offsets.
