Alaska c8340cf754 Cycles: Remove AMD and Intel GPU support from Metal backend
This is because with the addition of new features to Cycles, these GPUs
experienced significant performance regressions and bugs, all stemming
from bugs in the Metal GPU driver/compiler. The only reasonable way to
work around these issues was to disable parts of Cycles code on
these GPUs to avoid the driver/compiler bugs.

This resulted in increased development time maintaining these platforms
while being unable to deliver feature parity with other
GPU backends.

It has been decided that this development time is better spent
maintaining platforms that are still actively maintained by
hardware/software vendors, and so AMD and Intel GPU support will be
removed from the Metal backend for Cycles.
