Newer OpenSubdiv brings fixes and improvements for non-manifold meshes,
which fixes some crashes we've experienced in the recent past when using
Gregory patches.
Additionally, thing new version of OpenSubdiv brings sparse patches,
which allows to multi-thread topology refinement step.
Most of the source tarballs are retrieved via http, but a few remain
that are still downloaded via ftp. This causes some pain with corporate
firewalls, so moving the last two URIs to http helps ease the build process.

Note that this is turned off by default and must be enabled at build time with the CMake WITH_CYCLES_EMBREE flag.
Embree must be built as a static library with ray masking turned on, the `make deps` scripts have been updated accordingly.
There, Embree is off by default too and must be enabled with the WITH_EMBREE flag.
Using Embree allows for much faster rendering of deformation motion blur while reducing the memory footprint.
TODO: GPU implementation, deduplication of data, leveraging more of Embrees features (e.g. tessellation cache).

This involved getting SSL compiled from sources first, ensuring
it is a static library placement independent code. Configuration
is based on what Debian is using. CFlags required to have own
configuration file, which i didn't find a better place that next
to the corresponding CMake file.
It is OpenSSL btw.
It is set to Python via --with-openssl= configuration argument.
This works fine in a clean chroot, but having libssl-dev installed
might make Python to prefer system wide library, This was worked
around by using libssl_pic.a name for the library and modifying
setup.py. Would be cool to ensure system wide libraries are not
a problem, but official release builder is safe against this,
since it will catch possible non-static dependencies.
There is also a new map file which shadows bunch of Python
symbols. Without this Python's shared libraries might bring
conflicting symbols to Blender namespace at runtime.
Hopefully this doesn't break other platforms.
-Moved from dynamic link to static on windows
-gained lcms/tinyxml/yamlcpp deps, since we need a little more control over the build flags than the build-in options will provide.
seems like the openexr 2.3.0 release tarball has broken cmake support, latest from git works
we'll have to revisit this once they get a new release out.
-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.
