7537cad576 Volumes: add render settings for volume datablock
* Space: volume density and step size in object or world space
* Step Size: override automatic step size
* Clipping: values below this are ignored for tighter volume bounds

The last two are Cycles only currently.

fd53b72871 Objects: Eevee and workbench rendering of new Volume, Hair, PointCloud
Only the volume drawing part is really finished and exposed to the user. Hair
plugs into the existing hair rendering code and is fairly straightforward. The
pointcloud drawing is a hack using overlays rather than Eevee and workbench.

The most tricky part for volume rendering is the case where each volume grid
has a different transform, which requires an additional matrix in the shader
and non-trivial logic in Eevee volume drawing. In the common case were all the
transforms match we don't use the additional per-grid matrix in the shader.

b0a1cf2c9a Objects: add Volume object type, and prototypes for Hair and PointCloud
Only the volume object is exposed in the user interface. It is based on OpenVDB
internally. Drawing and rendering code will follow in another commit.

Hair and PointCloud object types are hidden behind a WITH_NEW_OBJECT_TYPES
build option. These are unfinished, and included only to make it easier to
cooperate on development in the future and avoid tricky merges.
