452a52575c Cycles material preview: fix for generated/packed/movie files
Issue was caused by cycles trying to find builtin images in a main
database and in case of preview render images are not in database,
they're just referenced by shader node tree.

Now builtin images in cycles have got void* pointer to store data
needed to load builtin images.

In case ob blender session, this pointer will store pointer from
PointerRNA for image datablock and used later to construct Image
class based on this pointer.

This also saves database lookup for final render which is nice :)

7a90af7b5a Packed and generated images support for Cycles
This commit adds support of packed and generated images
for Cycles when using SVM backend. Movies are still not
supported. This changes also doesn't touch OSL which is
much less trivial to adopt for any images which are not
saved to disk.

Implementation details:

- When adding images to Image Manager is now possible
  to mark image as builtin. Builtin images will bypass
  OIIO loader and will use special loading callbacks.

- Callbacks are set by Blender Session and they're
  using C++ RNA interface to obtain needed data (pixels,
  dimensions, is_float flag).

- Image Manager assumes file path is used as reference
  to a builtin images, but in fact currently image
  datablock name is used for reference. This makes it
  easy to find an image in BlendData database.

- Added some extra properties to Image RNA:
  * channels, which denotes actual number of channels
    in ImBuf. This is needed to treat image's pixels
    correct (before it wasn't possible because API
    used internal number of channels for pixels which
    is in fact doesn't correlate with image depth)
  * is_float, which is truth if image is stored in
    float buffer of ImBuf.

- Implemented string lookup for C++ RNA collections
  for cases there's no manual lookup function.

OSL is not supported because it used own image loading
and filtering routines and there's seems to be no API
to feed pre-loaded pixels directly to the library.

Think we'll either need to add some API to support
such kind of feeding or consider OSL does not have
support of packed images at all.

Movies are not supported at this moment because of lack
of RNA API to load specified frame. It's not difficult
to solve, just need to consider what to best here:
* Either write some general python interface for ImBuf
  and use it via C++ API, or
* Write a PY API function which will return pixels for
  given frame, or
* Use bad-level BKE_* call

Anyway, small steps, further improvements later.

540c9d4208 Cycles: fix crash rendering textured objects in OpenCL
Issue was caused by changed order of texture slots -- float textures
have got lower slots indices than byte textures. OpenCL was still assuming
byte textures goes before float.

16e6b7b867 cycles changes:
- images that can't be loaded because of the limit are printed in the console.
- textures that can't be found show up as pink (so we know somethings wrong).

8103381ded Cycles: threading optimizations
* Multithreaded image loading, each thread can load a separate image.
* Better multithreading for multiple instanced meshes, different threads can now
  build BVH's for different meshes, rather than all cooperating on the same mesh.
  Especially noticeable for dynamic BVH building for the viewport, gave about
  2x faster build on 8 core in fairly complex scene with many objects.
* The main thread waiting for worker threads can now also work itself, so
  (num_cores + 1) threads will be working, this supposedly gives better
  performance on some operating systems, but did not measure performance for
  this very detailed yet.

9fba458a7f Cycles: float texture support. Due to GPU limitations there are now 95 byte,
and 5 float image textures. For CPU render this limit will be lifted later
on with image cache support. Patch by Mike Farnsworth.

Also changed color space option in image/environment texture node, to show
options Color and Non-Color Data, instead of sRGB and Linear, this is more
descriptive, and it was not really correct to equate Non-Color Data with
Linear.
