For some reason when building with gcc-7.2 (which is default
in previous Ubuntu LTS) the guarded allocator is not being
properly instantiated.
Doesn't happen with newer version of gcc-7 which is 7.3, and
also doesn't happen with gcc-6 and gcc-8.
Would be nice to know what is wrong, but for the time being
committing workaround which keeps Blender users happy.
While we shouldn't have logic in an entry point, and since one should
not be making typos when moving lines around, there is bigger entanglement
issue with BVH host code using kernel function. This is bad violation,
but is tricky to get solved moments before the weekly.
In order to keep things in a (less) broken state than before own cleanup
reverting the changes.
This reverts commit 2bad10be96540ff50a149230d656e599775b3f47.

Currently this is possible after built-in images are loaded in memory.
Allows to save memory used by dependency graph and copy-on-write.
In practice this lowers peak system memory usage from 52GB to 42GB on
a production file of spring 03_035_A.lighting.
Note, that this only applies to F12 and command line renders.
Bigger note, that this optimization is currently only possible if
there are no grease pencil objects to be rendered.
Now it shows more compact info below the view/object name. Render time and
memory usage is left out, as in most cases this is not so important. These
could be added back optionally if needed.
Note that this is turned off by default and must be enabled at build time with the CMake WITH_CYCLES_EMBREE flag.
Embree must be built as a static library with ray masking turned on, the `make deps` scripts have been updated accordingly.
There, Embree is off by default too and must be enabled with the WITH_EMBREE flag.
Using Embree allows for much faster rendering of deformation motion blur while reducing the memory footprint.
TODO: GPU implementation, deduplication of data, leveraging more of Embrees features (e.g. tessellation cache).

It mainly contains properties that affect the final render/viewport and it's handy
to see if it's enabled or not while going through the render settings.
Only affects internal API, bout could be exposed as an option for
the compatibility reasons with other software.
Is a part of some ongoing development of multires, but might or
might not be used.
