This is the same as blender internal's texture mapping from another object,
so this way it's possible to control texture space of one object by another.
Quite straightforward change apart from the workaround for the stupidness of
the dependency graph. Now shader has flag telling that it depends on object
transform. This is the simplest way to know which shaders needs to be tagged
for update when object changes. This might give some false-positive tags now
but reducing them should not be priority for Cycles and rather be a priority
to bring new dependency graph.
Also GLSL preview does not support using other object for mapping.
This is actually correct for BI shading as well and to be addressed as
a part of general GLSL viewport improvements since it's not really clear
how to support this in GLSL.

This way Cycles finally becomes feature-full on image projections
compared to Blender Internal and Gooseberry Project Team could
finally finish the movie.
* If a Background node is set to a black color or zero strength,
it now gets removed from the shader graph.
* In case the graph is empty (no background node), the kernel will skip
evaluating it and save some rendertime. This can help quite a bit in scenes,
where the majority of the image consists of a black background.
Example: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=82650
In this case the render is ~16% faster.

* Anisotropic BSDF now supports GGX and Beckmann distributions, Ward has been
removed because other distributions are superior.
* GGX is now the default distribution for all glossy and anisotropic nodes,
since it looks good, has low noise and is fast to evaluate.
* Ashikhmin-Shirley is now available in the Glossy BSDF.
* Ashikhmin-Shirley anisotropic BSDF was added as closure
* Anisotropic BSDF node now has two distributions

This means packed images and movies are now supported when using OSL
backend for material shading.
Uses special file name to distinguish whether image is builtin or not.
This part might become a bit smarted or optimized a bit, but it's good
enough with this implementation already.
This can for example be useful if you want to manually terminate the path at
some point and use a color other than black.

These are internally stored as a 3D image textures, but accessible like e.g.
UV coordinates though the attribute node and getattribute().
This is convenient for rendering e.g. smoke objects where data like density is
really a property of the mesh, and it avoids having to specify the smoke object
in a texture node, instead the material will work with any smoke domain.
All textures are sampled bi-linear currently with the exception of OSL there texture sampling is fixed and set to smart bi-cubic.
This patch adds user control to this setting.
Added:
- bits to DNA / RNA in the form of an enum for supporting multiple interpolations types
- changes to the image texture node drawing code ( add enum)
- to ImageManager (this needs to know to allocate second texture when interpolation type is different)
- to node compiler (pass on interpolation type)
- to device tex_alloc this also needs to get the concept of multiple interpolation types
- implementation for doing non interpolated lookup for cuda and cpu
- implementation where we pass this along to osl ( this makes OSL also do linear untill I add smartcubic to the interface / DNA/ RNA)

This does not support staying fixed while the surface deforms, but for static
meshes it should match up with the surface texture coordinates. Implemented
as a matrix transform from objects space to mesh texture space.
Making this work for deforming surfaces would be quite complicated, you might
need something like harmonic coordinates as used in the mesh deform modifier,
probably will not be possible anytime soon.
* Henyey-Greenstein scattering closure implementation.
* Rename transparent to absorption node and isotropic to scatter node.
* Volume density is folded into the closure weights.
* OSL support for volume closures and nodes.
* This commit has no user visible changes, there is no volume render code yet.
This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.
This code can't actually be enabled for building and is incomplete, but it's
here because we know we want to support this at some point and there's not much
reason to have it in a separate branch if a simple #ifdef can disable it.
* Add a "Normal" Input to the Fresnel node.
* Fix for the Fresnel GLSL code (normalize the Incoming vector).
Patch #37384 by Philipp Oeser (lichtwerk) , thanks!
to standard nodes where the Blender socket names can differ from associated Cycles names and may require additional indices to make them unique. Script node sockets are already unique and exact due to
being generated from the script function parameters.
scale and rotation in mapping node, there would be shearing, and the only way
to avoid that was to add 2 mapping nodes. This is because to transform the
texture, the inverse transform needs to be done on the texture coordinate
Now the mapping node has Texture/Point/Vector/Normal types to transform the
vector for a particular purpose. Point is the existing behavior, Texture is
the new default that behaves more like you might expect.
normal and point parameter types of OSL shaders are creating SOCK_VECTOR sockets in the script node. When these sockets are in turn used to define the fixed input values for these parameters they get
converted as OSL vector always, losing the distinction of vector/normal/point. To prevent OSL rejecting the value due to type mismatch, explicitly define the parameter defaults in the OSL script node
compiler function as vector, normal and point (unused types will simply be ignored).
A new hair bsdf node, with two closure options, is added. These closures allow the generation of the reflective and transmission components of hair. The node allows control of the highlight colour, roughness and angular shift.
Llimitations include:
-No glint or fresnel adjustments.
-The 'offset' is un-used when triangle primitives are used.
give a result more similar to the Compatible falloff option. The scale is x2
though to keep the perceived scatter radius roughly the same while changing the
sharpness. Difference with compatible will be mainly on non-flat geometry.
* Clamp theta sky coordinates, to prevent a negative solarElevation.
Note: This means that you cannot get absolute night with the new model, but this is not supported anyway. So when you reach the maximum sunset, use the World Strength to further decrease the light.
* Added a new sky model by Hosek and Wilkie: "An Analytic Model for Full Spectral Sky-Dome Radiance" http://cgg.mff.cuni.cz/projects/SkylightModelling/
Example render:

Documentation:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/Textures#Sky_Texture
Details:
* User can choose between the older Preetham and the new Hosek / Wilkie model via a dropdown. For older files, backwards compatibility is preserved. When we add a new Sky texture, it defaults to the new model though.
* For the new model, you can specify the ground albedo (see documentation for details).
* Turbidity now has a UI soft range between 1 and 10, higher values (up to 30) are still possible, but can result in weird colors or black.
* Removed the limitation of 1 sky texture per SVM stack. (Patch by Lukas Tönne, thanks!)
Thanks to Brecht for code review and some help!
This is part of my GSoC 2013 project, SVN merge of r59214, r59220, r59251 and r59601.
New features:
* Bump mapping now works with SSS
* Texture Blur factor for SSS, see the documentation for details:

Work in progress for feedback:
Initial implementation of the "BSSRDF Importance Sampling" paper, which uses
a different importance sampling method. It gives better quality results in
many ways, with the availability of both Cubic and Gaussian falloff functions,
but also tends to be more noisy when using the progressive integrator and does
not give great results with some geometry. It works quite well for the
non-progressive integrator and is often less noisy there.
This code may still change a lot, so unless you're testing it may be best to
stick to the Compatible falloff function.
Skin test render and file that takes advantage of the gaussian falloff:

* Replaced the Preetham model with the newer Hosek / Wilkie model:
"An Analytic Model for Full Spectral Sky-Dome Radiance" http://cgg.mff.cuni.cz/projects/SkylightModelling/
* We use the sample code data, which comes with the paper, but removed some unnecessary parts, we only need the xyz version.
* New "Albedo" UI paraemeter, to control the ground albedo (between 0 and 1).
* Works with SVM only atm (CPU and CUDA).
Example render:

ToDo / Open Questions:
* OSL still uses the old model, will be done later. In the meantime it's useful to compare the two models this way.
* The new model needs a much weaker Strength value (0.01), otherwise it's white. Can this be fixed?
* Code cleanup.
