The formula was not consistent across Blender and behaved strangely, now it is
a simple linear blend between color1 and min(color1, color2).

This can for example be useful if you want to manually terminate the path at
some point and use a color other than black.

All textures are sampled bi-linear currently with the exception of OSL there texture sampling is fixed and set to smart bi-cubic.
This patch adds user control to this setting.
Added:
- bits to DNA / RNA in the form of an enum for supporting multiple interpolations types
- changes to the image texture node drawing code ( add enum)
- to ImageManager (this needs to know to allocate second texture when interpolation type is different)
- to node compiler (pass on interpolation type)
- to device tex_alloc this also needs to get the concept of multiple interpolation types
- implementation for doing non interpolated lookup for cuda and cpu
- implementation where we pass this along to osl ( this makes OSL also do linear untill I add smartcubic to the interface / DNA/ RNA)

This does not support staying fixed while the surface deforms, but for static
meshes it should match up with the surface texture coordinates. Implemented
as a matrix transform from objects space to mesh texture space.
Making this work for deforming surfaces would be quite complicated, you might
need something like harmonic coordinates as used in the mesh deform modifier,
probably will not be possible anytime soon.
* Henyey-Greenstein scattering closure implementation.
* Rename transparent to absorption node and isotropic to scatter node.
* Volume density is folded into the closure weights.
* OSL support for volume closures and nodes.
* This commit has no user visible changes, there is no volume render code yet.
This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.
A new hair bsdf node, with two closure options, is added. These closures allow the generation of the reflective and transmission components of hair. The node allows control of the highlight colour, roughness and angular shift.
Llimitations include:
-No glint or fresnel adjustments.
-The 'offset' is un-used when triangle primitives are used.
give a result more similar to the Compatible falloff option. The scale is x2
though to keep the perceived scatter radius roughly the same while changing the
sharpness. Difference with compatible will be mainly on non-flat geometry.
* Added a new sky model by Hosek and Wilkie: "An Analytic Model for Full Spectral Sky-Dome Radiance" http://cgg.mff.cuni.cz/projects/SkylightModelling/
Example render:

Documentation:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/Textures#Sky_Texture
Details:
* User can choose between the older Preetham and the new Hosek / Wilkie model via a dropdown. For older files, backwards compatibility is preserved. When we add a new Sky texture, it defaults to the new model though.
* For the new model, you can specify the ground albedo (see documentation for details).
* Turbidity now has a UI soft range between 1 and 10, higher values (up to 30) are still possible, but can result in weird colors or black.
* Removed the limitation of 1 sky texture per SVM stack. (Patch by Lukas Tönne, thanks!)
Thanks to Brecht for code review and some help!
This is part of my GSoC 2013 project, SVN merge of r59214, r59220, r59251 and r59601.
* OSL rendered Black with Compatible Fallof option, fixed.
Note: OSL uses compatible scattering when "Compatible" or "Bicubic" is selected. I guess compatible will be removed later? If not we need to fix this properly.
New features:
* Bump mapping now works with SSS
* Texture Blur factor for SSS, see the documentation for details:

Work in progress for feedback:
Initial implementation of the "BSSRDF Importance Sampling" paper, which uses
a different importance sampling method. It gives better quality results in
many ways, with the availability of both Cubic and Gaussian falloff functions,
but also tends to be more noisy when using the progressive integrator and does
not give great results with some geometry. It works quite well for the
non-progressive integrator and is often less noisy there.
This code may still change a lot, so unless you're testing it may be best to
stick to the Compatible falloff function.
Skin test render and file that takes advantage of the gaussian falloff:

* Remove code for the unused Wave texture variations.
We have quite some unused code in the texture area, I guess it doesn't harm to clean a bit up here.
We can always get the code back from SVN if we need something.
* Added a node to convert a temperature in Kelvin to an RGB color. This can be used e.g. for lights, to easily find the right color temperature.
= Some common temperatures =
Candle light: 1500 Kelvin
Sunset/Sunrise: 1850 Kelvin
Studio lamps: 3200 Kelvin
Horizon daylight: 5000 Kelvin

* Added a Ray Depth output to the Light Path node, which gives the user access to the current bounce.
This can be used to limit the maximum ray bounce on a per shader basis. Another use case is to restrict light influence with this, to have a lamp only contribute to the direct lighting.

* Reshuffle SSE #ifdefs to try to avoid compilation errors enabling SSE on 32 bit.
* Remove CUDA kernel launch size exception on Mac, is not needed.
* Make OSL file compilation quiet like c/cpp files.
* First (brute force) implementation for SVM. This works and delivers the same result as OSL, but it's slow.
* Code inside svm_blackbody.h inspired by a patch by Philipp Oeser (#35698), thanks.
Ideas:
* Use a lookup table to perform the calculations on render/ level.
* Implement it as a RNA property only, and do the calculation like Sun/Sky precompute.
* Added a node to convert wavelength (in nanometers, from 380nm to 780nm) to RGB values. This can be useful to match real world colors easier.
* Code cleanup:
** Moved color functions (xyz and hsv) into dedicated utility files.
** Remove svm_lerp(), use interp() instead.

Also fix broken button to compile OSL from the text editors, this got broken after
