Textures in 16 bit integer format are sometimes used for displacement, bump and normal maps and can be exported by tools like Substance Painter. Without this patch, Cycles would promote those textures to single precision floating point, causing them to take up twice as much memory as needed.

This commit contains the minimum to make clang build/work with blender, asan and ninja build support is forthcoming
Things to note:
1) Builds and runs, and is able to pass all tests (except for the freestyle_stroke_material.blend test which was broken at that time for all platforms by the looks of it)
2) It's slightly faster than msvc when using cycles. (time in seconds, on an i7-3370)

3) clang on windows uses a drop in replacement for the Microsoft cl.exe (takes some of the Microsoft parameters, but not all, and takes some of the clang parameters but not all) and uses ms headers + libraries + linker, so you still need visual studio installed and will use our existing vc14 svn libs.
4) X64 only currently, X86 builds but crashes on startup.
5) Tested with llvm/clang 6.0.0
6) Requires visual studio integration, available at https://github.com/LazyDodo/llvm-vs2017-integration
7) The Microsoft compiler spawns a few copies of cl in parallel to get faster build times, clang doesn't, so the build time is 3-4x slower than with msvc.
8) No openmp support yet. Have not looked at this much, the binary distribution of clang doesn't seem to include it on windows.
9) No ASAN support yet, some of the sanitizers can be made to work, but it was decided to leave support out of this commit.

Our own implementation was behaving different comparing to OSL and GPU,
namely on the border pixels OSL and CUDA was doing interpolation with
black, but we were clamping coordinate.
This partially fixes issue reported in T53452.
Similar change should also be done for 3D interpolation perhaps, but this
is to be investigated separately.
* Use common TextureInfo struct for all devices, except CUDA fermi.
* Move image sampling code to kernels/*/kernel_*_image.h files.
* Use arrays for data textures on Fermi too, so device_vector<Struct> works.
This patch allows for an unlimited number of textures in Cycles where the hardware allows. It replaces a number static arrays with dynamic arrays and changes the way the flat_slot indices are calculated. Eventually, I'd like to get to a point where there are only flat slots left and textures off all kinds are stored in a single array.
Note that the arrays in DeviceScene are changed from containing device_vector<T> objects to device_vector<T>* pointers. Ideally, I'd like to store objects, but dynamic resizing of a std:vector in pre-C++11 calls the copy constructor, which for a good reason is not implemented for device_vector. Once we require C++11 for Cycles builds, we can implement a move constructor for device_vector and store objects again.
The limits for CUDA Fermi hardware still apply.

Now we have the 4 component ones first (float4, byte4, half4) followed by the 1 component ones (float, byte, half).
Makes code a bit more consistent and also reduces code a bit when enabling half support on GPU in next commit.
This also exposed a typo in half CPU images for 3D textures, which wasn't used yet, but good to have that one fixed anyway.
This is an initial commit for half texture support in Cycles.
It adds the basic infrastructure inside of the ImageManager and support for these textures on CPU.
Supported:
* Half Float OpenEXR images (can be used for e.g HDRs or Normalmaps) now use 1/2 the memory, when loaded via disk (OIIO).
ToDo:
Various things like support for inbuilt half textures, GPU... will come later, step by step.
Part of my GSoC 2016.
Compile time per kernel increased alot after recent image commits, re-shuffle some code to fix this.
Patch by "LazyDodo".
