Was caused by some safety things of making sure we've for NULL
terminator for the buffer when doing mbs<->wcs conversion, but
it turns out this simply confuses str::string and it can no
longer have proper .size(). Let's assume behavior of string
allocation is same all over the std, and we can avoid having
that extra null-terminator allocated.
There are several fixes in here, which hopefully will make the shader
working correct without too much magic in there.
First of all, this commit brings BURLEY_TRUNCATE down from 30 to 16
which reduces noise a lot. It's still higher than original truncate
from Brecht, but this reduces PDF value at a cutoff distance by an
order of magnitude (now it's 0.008387, previously it was 0.063521
for the albedo of 0.8 and radius 1.0). This should converge to a
proper result faster and don't have artifacts.
This kind of reverts fix for T47356, but after additional thinking
came to conclusion Burley is not being totally smooth, it is about
giving less waxy results which it's kind of doing in the file.
Second of all, this commit fixes burley_eval() to use normalized
diffusion reflectance. This matches the way we calculate CDF and
solves numeric instability close to 0, making PDF profile looking
closer to other SSS profiles:

C++ requires specific alignment of the allocations which was not an
issue when using GCC but uncovered issue when using Clang on OSX.
Perhaps some versions of Clang might show errors on other platforms
as well.
On undo, sculpting regular meshes would update _all_ GPU VBO's.
Avoiding the update gives noticeably faster undo.
This is also a fix/workaround for strange behavior with NVidia's driver (T47232),
Where locking and unlocking all buffers for updating
slows down redraw speed permanently after the first undo.
However the problem isn't avoided entirely since a single brush stroke might modify most of the mesh.
CLAMP was conflicting between Common.h and BLI_utildefines.h
Ideally we would use macro from BLI, but it's a bit involved change
to make it working with C++, will keep it for later.
We don't have vectors re-allocation happening multiple times from inside
a loop anymore, so we can safely switch to a memory guarded allocator for
vectors and keep track on the memory usage at various stages of rendering.
Additionally, when building from inside Blender repository, Cycles will
use Blender's guarded allocator, so actual memory usage will be displayed
in the Space Info header.
There are couple of tricky aspects of the patch:
- TaskScheduler::exit() now explicitly frees memory used by `threads`.
This is needed because `threads` is a static member which destructor
isn't getting called on Blender's exit which caused memory leak print
to happen.
This shouldn't give any measurable speed issues, reallocation of that
vector is only one of fewzillion other allocations happening during
synchronization.
- Use regular guarded malloc (not aligned one). No idea why it was
made to be aligned in the first place. Perhaps some corner case tests
or so. Vector was never expected to be aligned anyway. Let's see if
we'll have actual bugs with this.

Basically the idea is to make code robust against extending
enum options in the future by falling back to a known safe
default setting when RNA is set to something unknown.
While this approach solves the issues similar to T47377,
but it wouldn't really help when/if any of the RNA values
gets ever deprecated and removed. There'll be no simple
solution to that apart from defining explicit mapping from
RNA value to Cycles one.
Another part which isn't so great actually is that we now
have to have some enum guards and give some explicit values
to the enum items, but we can live with that perhaps.

Since Cmd + A works elsewhere, it should work during font objects editing as well.
There is still a mysterious issue with Cmd + Z not working for UNDO the edited
text in OSX (probably GHOST related).
When pasting text, the style (bold, material, ...) is maintained, if it was originally copied from Blender.
This fixes the issue of missing copy/paste options for font objects
(they were present back in Blender 2.49)

Now take into account `dupli_offset` of groups.
Also fixed another issue related to objects renderability, previous code was giving
bad results due to added temp objects to generate previews (camera, lamp...).
Was only trying to install $BOOST_VERSION or higher boost - being fairly recent
this always failed. We can live with older versions too, so now using
*BOOST_VERSION_MIN as with other distros.
