Shutter curve now can be controlled using curve mapping widget in the motion
blur panel in Render buttons. Only mapping from 0..1 by x axis are allowed,
Y values will be normalized to fill in 0..1 space as well automatically.
Y values of 0 means fully closed shutter, Y values of 1 means fully opened
shutter.
Default mapping is set to old behavior when shutter opens and closes instantly.
This shutter mapping curve could easily be used by any other render engine by
accessing scene.render.motion_blur_shutter_curve.

Previously shutter was instantly opening, staying opened for the shutter time
period of time and then instantly closing. This isn't quite how real cameras
are working, where shutter is opening with some curve. Now it is possible to
define user curve for how much shutter is opened across the sampling period
of time.
This could be used for example to make motion blur trails softer.
Load driver dynamically at runtime instead of weak-linking the
3Dconnexion framework. Driver no longer needed at build time!
Works with really old drivers (as in PowerMac old), more recent
versions, and the latest which allows us to process events on a
separate thread.
It was possible to miss some intersection caused by wrong barycentric
coordinates sign.
Cases when one of the coordinate is zero and other are negative was not
handled correct.
This adds an option to control at what time relative to the current frame
the shutter is fully opened. Supported options are:
- Shutter is starting to open at the current frame
- Shutter is fully opened at the current frame
- Shutter is fully closed at the current frame
Custom shutter time offset is possible, same as custom curve for shutter
openness but those are considered nice things to have rather than something
crucial.

It turns out libGL from Intel crashes when calling glxewInit (where mesa, nvidia work fine),
unfortunately the only option without making larger changes to glew,
is to inline the parts of glew we're using - before the glx context is created.
Title says it all, based on feedback of artists from gooseberry team.
This mainly affects cases when going to a local view from layers setup
when some lamps were on invisible layers. Those lights are no longer
becoming visible to the object in local view.

The issue was caused by non-continuous tangent space calculated for triangles.
This commit adds a Tangent input to Hair BSDF node which can be used to hook up
Tangent calculated form UV as an input to the node in order to make sure the
tangent space is continuous.
Doing this as an input instead of using default tangent layer from UV because of
several reasons:
- This way it's really easy to preserve compatibility with existing setups.
- Default UV map is not necessarily giving continuous space, one might want to
use other tangent space sources or distort the space for some artistic
decision.

Currently only image loading benefits of this and will give magenta color
when image manager detects it's running out of memory.
This isn't ideal solution and can't handle all cases. For example, OOM
killer might kill process before it realized it run out of memory, but
in other cases this could prevent some crashes.

Currently OpenCL devices are packing images into a single texture,
which means technically number of textures is not limited here.
Now OpenCL will use same number of textures as CPU. If we want
to bump number of textures further, this values are to be modified
in sync.
NOTE OpenCL still does not support float textures.
Original patch from a guy called bliblubli in the tracker with
some own modifications.

Ray direction is assumed to be normalized in such areas as scaling intersection
distance on instance push/pop when doing ray-scene intersection, but it was
possible that some closures wouldn't give normalized direction which could cause
wrong intersection checks.
Now normalization will happen on surface bounce, which could be a bit of a waste
if closure actually gives normalized direction, but currently only transparent
BSDF seems to give guaranteed normalized direction.
Issue was caused by wrong intersection distance scaling on instance pop,
which could cause intersection distance to become zero, confusing following
intersection checks.
This commit exposes the interpolation parameter for environment textures (requested by DolpheenDream on IRC), just as it already is for image textures.
