Quite trivial idea -- just pass tread ID to the texture sampling function.
Implemented as a TLS to avoid passing huge amount of extra contexts around.
Should be working on all platforms, but compilation test is required.

Basically filtering was happening twice, first time by applying weights of EWA
filter itself and then by applying subpixel offset while reading pixel values.

Implemented Features
====================

* Cameras
* Plane
* Volume
Compositor
* View Switch Node
* Image Node Multi-View OpenEXR support
Sequencer
* Image/Movie Strips 'Use Multiview'
UV/Image Editor
* Option to see Multi-View images in Stereo-3D or its individual images
* Save/Open Multi-View (OpenEXR, Stereo3D, individual views) images
I/O
* Save/Open Multi-View (OpenEXR, Stereo3D, individual views) images
Scene Render Views
* Ability to have an arbitrary number of views in the scene
Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

Input constants are to be connected before removing proxies,
otherwise node groups might give totally different result.
This is a regression and to be put into final release.
The functionality was got lost when new compositor system was landed
and it wasn't always clear what's causing the hicucps. Now it's nicely
reported to the stats line.
It was actually an old issue with wrong conversion happening for muted
nodes, which wasn't visible before memory optimization commit.
This is to be backported to the final release.
This commit makes some preliminary fixes and tweaks aimed to make blender
compilable with C++11 feature set. This includes:
- Build system attribute to enable C++11 featureset.
It's for sure default OFF, but easy to enable to have a play around with
it and make sure all the stuff is compilable before we go C++11 for real.
- Changes in Compositor to use non-named cl_int structure fields.
This is because __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined by default by GCC and OpenCL
does not use named fields in this case.
- Changes to TYPE_CHECK() related on lack of typeof() in C++11
This uses decltype() instead with some trickery to make sure returned type
is not a reference.
- Changes for auto_ptr in Freestyle
This actually conditionally switches between auto_ptr and unique_ptr since
auto_ptr is deprecated in C++11. Seems to be not strictly needed but still
nice to be ready for such an update anyway/
This all based on changes form depsgraph_refactor branch apart from the weird
changes which were made in order to support MinGW compilation. Those parts of
change would need to be carefully reviewed again after official move to gcc49
in MinGW.
Tested on Linux with GCC-4.7 and Clang-3.5, other platforms are not tested and
likely needs some more tweaks.

This was a regression caused by attempts to fix T42844 and there were
some red-herrings which lead me to the wrong way to fix it. It's some
deeper issue than just interpolation offset, it's mainly how the node
resolution is being mapped to each other.
It could be actually a part of canvas awareness project..
Different interpolation methods in compositor could lead to 0.5 pixel offset in
final renders. This is because of some inconsistency in integer coordinates
which might mean pixel corner or pixel center.
Should be all fine now.
The compostor used a fixed size of 4 floats to hold pixel data. this
patch will select size of a pixel based on its type.
It uses 1 float for Value, 3 float for vector and 4 floats for color
data types.
When benchmarking on shots (opening shot of caminandes) we get a
reduction of memory of 30% and a tiny speedup as less data
transformations needs to take place (but these are negligable.

Thanks for Sergey for his indept review.
The title says it all, move the EWA filter to BLI (currently it's
math_interp.c) and use the function from both BI renderer and the
compositor.
This makes more central place of the algorithm, allowing to have
fixes and optimizaitons synchronized across the two usages.
This also fixes T41440: Displacement in compositing creates holes

For now it was mainly about OpenCL wrangler being duplicated
between Cycles and Compositor, but with OpenSubdiv work those
wranglers were gonna to be duplicated just once again.
This commit makes it so Cycles and Compositor uses wranglers
from this repositories:
- https://github.com/CudaWrangler/cuew
- https://github.com/OpenCLWrangler/clew
This repositories are based on the wranglers we used before
and they'll be likely continued maintaining by us plus some
more players in the market.
Pretty much straightforward change with some tricks in the
CMake/SCons to make this libs being passed to the linker
after all other libraries in order to make OpenSubdiv linked
against those wranglers in the future.
For those who're worrying about Cycles being less standalone,
it's not truth, it's rather more flexible now and in the future
different wranglers might be used in Cycles. For now it'll
just mean those libs would need to be put into Cycles repository
together with some other libs from Blender such as mikkspace.
This is mainly platform maintenance commit, should not be any
changes to the user space.

This allows adding a "fake" sun beam effect, simulating crepuscular rays
from light being scattered in a medium like the atmosphere or deep water.
Such effects can be created also by renderers using volumetric lighting,
but the compositor feature is a lot cheaper and is independent from 3D
rendering. This makes it ideally suited for motion graphics.
The implementation uses am optimized accumulation method for gathering
color values along a line segment. The inner buffer loop uses fixed
offset increments to avoid unnecessary multiplications and avoids
variables by using compile-time specialization (see inline comments
for further details).
