These are the internal changes to Cycles, for Blender integration there are no functional changes in this commit. Images are converted to scene linear color space on file load, and on reading from the OpenImageIO texture cache. 8-bit images are compressed with the sRGB transfer function to avoid precision loss while keeping memory usages low. This also means that for common cases of 8-bit sRGB images no conversion happens at all on image loading. Initial patch by Lukas, completed by Brecht.
