This commit makes it possible to use Glog library for the debug logging.
For now only possible when using CMake and in order to use the logging
the WITH_CYCLES_LOGGING configuration variable is to be enabled.
When this option is not enabled or when using Scons there's no difference
in Cycles behavior at all, when using logging and no output to the console
impact is gonna to be minimal.
This is done in order to make it possible to have debug logging persistent
in code (without need to add it when troubleshooting some bug and removing
it afterwards).
For now actual logging is not placed yet, only all the functions needed for
the logging are written and so.
tri_shader does no longer need to a float.

Basically the same as AC2c58e96685e8, but for Mix RGB Shaders, in case we use the Mix type. This way the node can be used as texture switch for example, setting the Factor to 0.0 or 1.0, without wasting extra memory / render time.
This adds a fresnel conductive OSL preset to the Text Editor. Based on a patch by Lukas Stockner.

* Fix caustic properties, was not updated.
* Remove wrong items, leftovers from panel splitting.
* Add missing items. Even if the bundled presets do not set those, a user expects that all properties inside the panel are taken into account, when adding a new preset.
This is rather legit case which happens i.e. when having persistent images enabled
and session is updating the lookup tables.
Now device_memory keeps track of amount of memory being allocated on the device,
which makes freeing using the proper allocated size, not the CPU side buffer
size.
Before this Cycles used to try using the cache even so it knew for the
fact that reading it from the disk failed. This change doesn't make it
more stable if someone will try to trick Cycles and give malformed data
but it solves general cases when Blender crashed during the cache write
and will preserve rendering from crashing when trying to use that partial
cache.
I don't see a reason not to do this, and this also fixes update problems when 3D View rendering is running (no volume shader), and then a volume shader gets added.
There were several issues involved into triangle ribbons hair:
- Even for the viewport rendering the blender scene camera was
used for orientation. This made hair triangles oriented to
the scene camera, not to the viewport camera.
- Triangle orientation was actually supposing the camera is
perspective. Triangles weren't oriented properly for the
orthographic camera resulting in different hair width across
it's length.
This issues are solved now, but there are some related TODOs:
- Rotating viewport doesn't re-orient the triangles, so after
viewport navigation hair might not look correct. However,
with this fix toggling viewport render (to force hair sync)
makes viewport render correct.
This isn't so much trivial fix, would require making BVH
aware of the dynamic triangle orientation, so they get
properly oriented without full hair re-sync.
- Panorama camera behavior didn't change but looks like it
should, however not really sure atm what's the right thing
to do here.
The issue was caused by the changed defaults from the Cycles side.
Because of those properties being saved as an IDProp and not being
saved to the file, every change to the defaults would ruin someone's
day updating the values.
Added a bpy.app.handler.version_update which is run after the regular
do_versions() are done and could be sued by the scripts to apply
versioning code on their settings.

Issue was caused by the precision issues which made sdivm by 1 under
it's actual value. We can try to do some eps magic, but from the tests
on laptop and desktop doing integer division is not slower than using
floats here.
Thanks for Aldo Zang for the help with the fix for the panorama/fisheye
depth of field calculation and the overall math.

Now we build 2 .cubins per architecture (e.g. kernel_sm_21.cubin, kernel_experimental_sm_21.cubin).
The experimental kernel can be used by switching to the Experimental Feature Set: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Experimental_Features
This enables Subsurface Scattering and Correlated Multi Jitter Sampling on GPU, while keeping the stability and performance of the regular kernel.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D762
Patch by Sergey and myself.
Developer / Builder Note:
CUDA Toolkit 6.5 is highly recommended for this, also note that building the experimental kernel requires a lot of system memory (~7-8GB).
It can be helpful in some cases and it works properly, so no need to hide it behind the experimental flag anymore. It's only enabled for the CPU though.
