Simple search for intersections became slow for larger concave ngons (100+)
Tested to work with ngons up to 75k sides, performance is approx ~6x faster then scanfill.
This is a 2D version of BLI_kdtree with modifications:
- nodes can be removed
- an index -> node map is stored (especially for tessellation)
* Added support for uchar4 attributes to Cycles' attribute system.
* This is used for Vertex Colors now, which saves some memory (4 unsigned characters, instead of 4 floats).
* GPU Texture Limit on sm_20 and sm_21 decreased from 95 to 94, because we need a new texture for the uchar4 attributes. This is no problem for sm_30 or newer.

This kernel is compiled with AVX2, FMA3, and BMI compiler flags. At the moment only Intel Haswell benefits from this, but future AMD CPUs will have these instructions as well.
Makes rendering on Haswell CPUs a few percent faster, only benchmarked with clang on OS X though.

Instead of pre-calculation and storage, we now calculate the face normal during render.
This gives a small slowdown (~1%) but decreases memory usage, which is especially important for GPUs,
where you have limited VRAM.

This makes the code a bit easier to understand, and might come in handy
if we want to reuse more Embree code.

Code by Brecht, with fixes by Lockal, Sergey and myself.
This gives around 30% of speedup for gaussian blur node.
Pretty much straightforward implementation inside the node
itself, but needed to implement some additional things:
- Aligned malloc. It's needed to load data onto SSE registers
faster. based on the aligned_malloc() from Libmv with
some additional trickery going on to support arbitrary
alignment (this magic is needed because of MemHead).
In the practice only 16bit alignment is supported because
of the lack of aligned malloc with arbitrary alignment
for OSX. Not a bit deal for now because we need 16 bytes
alignment at this moment only. Could be tweaked further
later.
- Memory buffers in compositor are now aligned to 16 bytes.
Should be harmless for non-SSE cases too. just mentioning.

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.
