Various fixes so sculpt_init_tool_override_channels
for shift-smooth can replicate the prior behavior:
* Brush spacing will now look up brush channel
spacing directly for sculpt, instead of relying
on copying the channel data into Brush.
* Brush spacing code will now use brush channel
pressure for sculpt. Fixes broken shift-smooth
pen pressure.
* The falloff_curve channel is now automatically
added (before it was only used internally by
command lists, the code was defaulting to
the Brush field otherwise).
* BrushCurve now has an option for custom curve
presets to have negative slopes.
* The Falloff panel now puts the type dropbox
inside the panel header.
* Falloff panel also now uses brush channel data in
sculpt mode.
* falloff_shape is now a brush channel
In a somewhat unrelated change, I also unnested the
Brush Settings subpanels. It's been driving me
insane for a very, very long time. Much more
usable this way.
We need to increase GPU memory usage a bit. Unfortunately we can't get away
with writing either reflection or transmission passes because these BSDFs may
scatter in either direction but still must be in a fixed reflection or
transmission category to match up with the color passes.
Partially reverts commit rB440a3475b8f5410e5c41bfbed5ce82771b41356f because
"optixDenoiserComputeIntensity" does not currently support input images that are not packed (the
"pixelStrideInBytes" field is not zero). As a result the intensity calculation would take into account
data from other passes in the image, some of which was scaled by the number of samples still and
therefore produce widely incorrect results that then caused artifacts in the denoised image.

The root of the problem lies in bug in OIIO which we can work around
from our side (which does not affect pack memory usage).
Thanks Brecht for finding the root cause!

Remove outdated CUDA comments for bindless textures and cleanup some HIP comments that still mentioned CUDA.

The issue was caused by splitting happening twice.
Fixed by checking for split flag which is assigned to the both states
during split.
The tricky part was to write catcher data at the moment of split: the
transparency and shadow catcher sample count is to be accumulated at
that point. Now it is happening in the `intersect_closest` kernel.
The downside is that render buffer is to be passed to the kernel, but
the benefit is that extra split bounce check is not needed now.
Had to move the passes write to shadow catcher header, since include
of `film/passes.h` causes all the fun of requirement to have BSDF
data structures available.

This patch exposes the sampling offset option to Blender. It is located in the "Sampling > Advanced" panel.
For example, this can be useful to parallelize rendering and distribute different chunks of samples for each computer to render.
---
I also had to add this option to `RenderWork` and `RenderScheduler` classes so that the sample count in the status string can be calculated correctly.

It's unclear why this fails. Maybe the size of half4 is not the expected
8 bytes and adjacent pixels are overwritten. Or there is some bug in the
HIP compiler writing a struct into global memory, which we probably don't
do elsewhere in the kernel.
Thanks to Thomas, William and Jeroen for helping investigate this.
rB3a4c8f406a3a3bf0627477c6183a594fa707a6e2 changed the macros that create the film
convert kernel entry points, but in the process accidentally changed the parameter definition
to one of those (which caused CUDA launch and misaligned address errors) and changed the
implementation as well. This restores the correct implementation from before.
In addition, the `ccl_gpu_kernel_threads` macro did not work as intended and caused the
generated launch bounds to end up with an incorrect input for the second parameter (it was
set to "thread_num_registers", rather than the result of the block number calculation). I'm
not entirely sure why, as the macro definition looked sound to me. Decided to simply go with
two separate macros instead, to simplify and solve this.
Also changed how state is captured with the `ccl_gpu_kernel_lambda` macro slightly, to avoid
a compiler warning (expression has no effect) that otherwise occurred.

The issue was that the `object_is_geometry` method was used in two different
contexts that expected the function to behave differently. So a recent change
that fixed `object_is_geometry` for one context, broke it for the other context.
The two contexts are:
* Check if a "real" object can contain a geometry to check if it has to be tagged
for sync after an update.
* Check if an object/instance actually is a geometry that cycles can work with.
I created a new `object_can_have_geometry` method for the first use case, instead
of trying to adapt the existing object_is_geometry method to serve both uses.
Additionally, I changed it so that a BObjectInfo is passed into `object_is_geometry`
to make it more explicit when this method is supposed to be used.

This patch adapts the shared kernel entrypoints so that they can be compiled as MSL (Metal Shading Language). Where possible, the adaptations avoid changes in common code.
In MSL, kernel function inputs are explicitly bound to resources. In the case of argument buffers, we declare a struct containing the kernel arguments, accessible via device pointer. This differs from CUDA and HIP where kernel function arguments are declared as traditional C-style function parameters. This patch adapts the entrypoints declared in kernel.h so that they can be translated via a new `ccl_gpu_kernel_signature` macro into the required parameter struct + kernel entrypoint pairing for MSL.
MSL buffer attribution must be applied to function parameters or non-static class data members. To allow universal access to the integrator state, kernel data, and texture fetch adapters, we wrap all of the shared kernel code in a `MetalKernelContext` class. This is achieved by bracketing the appropriate kernel headers with "context_begin.h" and "context_end.h" on Metal. When calling deeper into the kernel code, we must reference the context class (e.g. `context.integrator_init_from_camera`). This extra prefixing is performed by a set of defines in "context_end.h". These will require explicit maintenance if entrypoints change. We invite discussion on more maintainable ways to enforce correctness.
Lambda expressions are not supported on MSL, so a new `ccl_gpu_kernel_lambda` macro generates an inline function object and optionally capturing any required state. This yields the same behaviour. This approach is applied to all parallel_... implementations which are templated by operation. The lambda expressions in the film_convert... kernels don't adapt cleanly to use function objects. However, these entrypoints can be macro-generated more concisely to avoid lambda expressions entirely, instead relying on constant folding to handle the pixel/channel conversions.
A separate implementation of `gpu_parallel_active_index_array` is provided for Metal to workaround some subtle differences in SIMD width, and also to encapsulate some required thread parameters which must be declared as explicit entrypoint function parameters.

Adds a pass before denoising that calculates the intensity of the image, which can be
passed into the OptiX denoiser for more optimal results for very dark or very bright images.
In addition this also fixes a crash that sometimes occurred on exit. The OptiX denoiser object
has to be destroyed before the OptiX device context object (since it references that). But in
C++ the destructor function of a class is called before its fields are destructed, so
"~OptiXDevice" was always called before "OptiXDevice::~Denoiser" and therefore
"optixDeviceContextDestroy" was called before "optixDenoiserDestroy", hence the crash.

Adds a workaround for a driver bug in r495 that causes artifacts with OptiX denoising.
`optixDenoiserSetup` is not working properly there when called with a stream other than the
default stream, so use the default stream for now and force synchronization across the entire
context afterwards to ensure the other stream Cycles uses to enqueue the actual denoising
command cannot execute before the denoising setup has finished.

Changes:
* After hitting a shadow catcher, re-initialize the volume stack taking
into account shadow catcher ray visibility. This ensures that volume objects
are included in the stack only if they are shadow catchers.
* If there is a volume to be shaded in front of the shadow catcher, the split
is now performed in the shade_volume kernel after volume shading is done.
* Previously the background pass behind a shadow catcher was done as part of
the regular path, now it is done as part of the shadow catcher path.
For a shadow catcher path with volumes and visible background, operations are
done in this order now:
* intersect_closest
* shade_volume
* shadow catcher split
* intersect_volume_stack
* shade_background
* shade_surface
The world volume is currently assumed to be CG, that is it does not exist in
the footage. We may consider adding an option to control this, or change the
default. With a volume object this control is already possible.
This includes refactoring to centralize the logic for next kernel scheduling
in intersect_closest.h.
