Adds internal API for creating and managing OpenXR actions at the
GHOST and WM layers. Does not bring about any changes for users since
XR action functionality is not yet exposed in the Python API (will be
added in a subsequent patch).
OpenXR actions are a means to communicate with XR input devices and
can be used to retrieve button/pose states or apply haptic feedback.
Actions are bound to device inputs via a semantic path binding
(https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenXR/specs/1.0/html/xrspec.html#semantic-path-interaction-profiles),
which serves as an XR version of keymaps.
Main features:
- Abstraction of OpenXR action management functions to GHOST-XR,
WM-XR APIs.
- New "xr_session_start_pre" callback for creating actions at
appropriate point in the XR session.
- Creation of name-identifiable action sets/actions.
- Binding of actions to controller inputs.
- Acquisition of controller button states.
- Acquisition of controller poses.
- Application of controller haptic feedback.
- Carefully designed error handling and useful error reporting
(e.g. action set/action name included in error message).

This issue originates from a missing BVH packing for visibility data
when it is modified.
To fix this, this adds update flags to the managers to carry the
modified visibility information from the Objects' modified flag to the
GeometryManager.
Another set of flags is added to determine which data need to be packed:
geometry, vertices, or visibility. Those flags are then used when
packing the primivites.

Was causing calculation issues later on in the kernel.
This change catches the most obvious case: missing attribute. The old
code was trying to set tangent to 0, but because it was transformed as
a normal it got converted to non-finite value. This change makes it so
that no transform is involved and 0 is written directly to the SVM
stack.
To cover all cases it will require using safe_normalize() in this node
and in the normal transform function. This is more involved change from
performance point of view, would be nice to verify whether we really want
to go this route.
I've left asserts in the BSDF allocation functions. Don't have strong
connection to them, but think they are handy and are not different from
having an assert in the path radiance checks.

It is possible that BSDF allocation will advance pointer in the
allocation "pool" but will return null pointer if the weight is
too small.
One artist-measurable issue this change fixes is random issues
with denoising: normal pass for denoising could have accessed
non-initialized normal of a closure.

There need to be more cleanup for ffmpeg 4.5 (ffmpeg master branch).
However this now compiles on ffmpeg 4.4 without and deprication

The render session is keeping track of the scene update, which includes
kernel loading time.
This fixes negative render times reported when CUDA kernels are compiled
at runtime.
A bit fragile logic, can be re-implemented using some user-counted
scope utility classes, so that only outer-most time skip is applied.
This precomputes vertex normals in the procedural and caches them in case none
are found in the archive. This only applies to polygon meshes, as subdivision
meshes are yet to be subdivided, so it is useless to do this computation.
The goal here is to speed up data updates between frames, as computing normals
shows up in profiles even for large objects. This saves around 16% of update time
for a production file.
This splits the data reading logic from the AlembicObject class and moves it to
separate files to better enforce a separation of concern. The goal was to simplify
and improve the logic to read data from an Alembic archive.
Since the procedural loads data for the entire animation, this requires looping
over the frame range and looking up data for each frame. Previously those loops
would be duplicated over the entire code causing divergences in how we might
skip or deduplicate data across frames (if only some data change over time and
not other on the same object, e.g. vertices and triangles might not have the
same animation times), and therefore, bugs.
Now, we only use a single function with callback to loop over the geometry data
for each requested frame, and another one to loop over attributes. Given how
attributes are accessed it is a bit tricky to simplify further and only use a
ingle function, however, this is left as a further improvement as it is not
impossible.
To read the data, we now use a set of structures to hold which data to read.
Those structures might seem redundant with the Alembic schemas as they are
somewhat a copy of the schemas' structures, however they will allow us in the
long run to treat the data of one object type as the data of another object
type (e.g. to ignore subdivision, or only loading the vertices as point clouds).
For attributes, this new system allows us to read arbitrary attributes, although
with some limitations still:
* only subdivision and polygon meshes are supported due to lack of examples for
curve data;
* some data types might be missing: we support float, float2, float3, booleans,
normals, uvs, rgb, and rbga at the moment, other types can be trivially added
* some attribute scopes (or domains) are not handled, again, due to lack of example
files
* color types are always interpreted as vertex colors
Shaders are only compiled if they are used by some other Node (Geometry, Light, etc.).
This usage detection is done before updating the Scene, however it fails at detecting
Shaders used by Procedurals not known to Cycles (e.g. ones defined by third party
applications), as Procedurals are only updated after the shaders are compiled.
To remedy this, we now use the Node reference counting mechanism to detect whether a
Shader is used and therefore should be compiled.
This removes `ShaderManager::update_shaders_used` as it is not needed anymore, however,
since it would also update the Shader ids, this is now performed in
`ShaderManager::device_update`, and a new virtual `device_update_specific` method was
added to handle device updates for SVM and OSL.

This adds a reference count to Nodes which is incremented or decremented
whenever they are added to or removed from a socket, which will help us
track used Nodes throughout the scene graph generically without having to
add an explicit count or flag on specific Node types. This is especially
useful to track Nodes defined through Procedurals out of Cycles' control.
This also modifies the order in which nodes are deleted to ensure that
upon deletion, a Node does not attempt to decrement the reference
count of another Node which was already freed or deleted.
This is not currently used, but will be in the next commit.

Keep track of clog_refs so we can null the pointers when calling
CLG_exit. Otherwise we will run into issues where the code will try to
access freed data.
