Brecht Van Lommel 0731d78d00 Cycles: remove shadow pass
This was not working well in non-trivial scenes before the light tree, and now
it is even harder to make it work well with the light tree. It would average the
with equal weight for every light object regardless of intensity or distance, and
be quite noisy due to not working with multiple importance sampling.

We may restore this if were enough good use cases for the previous implementation,
but let's wait and see what the feedback is.

Some uses cases for this have been replaced by the shadow catcher passes, which
did not exist when this was added.
