For curve-heavy scenes, memory consumption regressed when we switched from MetalRT to bvh2. Allow users to opt in to MetalRT to workaround this.

This patch adds the Metal host-side code:
- Add all core host-side Metal backend files (device_impl, queue, etc)
- Add MetalRT BVH setup files
- Integrate with Cycles device enumeration code
- Revive `path_source_replace_includes` in util/path (required for MSL compilation)
This patch also includes a couple of small kernel-side fixes:
- Add an implementation of `lgammaf` for Metal [Nemes, Gergő (2010), "New asymptotic expansion for the Gamma function", Archiv der Mathematik](https://users.renyi.hu/~gergonemes/)
- include "work_stealing.h" inside the Metal context class because it accesses state now

Remove prefix of filenames that is the same as the folder name. This used
to help when #includes were using individual files, but now they are always
relative to the cycles root directory and so the prefixes are redundant.
For patches and branches, git merge and rebase should be able to detect the
renames and move over code to the right file.
