This mimics behavior of default allocators in STL and allows all the routines
to catch out-of-memory exceptions and hopefully recover from that situation/
We don't have vectors re-allocation happening multiple times from inside
a loop anymore, so we can safely switch to a memory guarded allocator for
vectors and keep track on the memory usage at various stages of rendering.
Additionally, when building from inside Blender repository, Cycles will
use Blender's guarded allocator, so actual memory usage will be displayed
in the Space Info header.
There are couple of tricky aspects of the patch:
- TaskScheduler::exit() now explicitly frees memory used by `threads`.
This is needed because `threads` is a static member which destructor
isn't getting called on Blender's exit which caused memory leak print
to happen.
This shouldn't give any measurable speed issues, reallocation of that
vector is only one of fewzillion other allocations happening during
synchronization.
- Use regular guarded malloc (not aligned one). No idea why it was
made to be aligned in the first place. Perhaps some corner case tests
or so. Vector was never expected to be aligned anyway. Let's see if
we'll have actual bugs with this.

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.

The method is called vector::free_memory(). Use with care since it'll invalidate
all the pointers to vector memory, all iterators and so on.
Currently unused, but might become handy when clearing unused data.
The commit implements a guarded allocator which can be used by STL classes
such as vectors, maps and so on. This allocator will keep track of current
and peak memory usage which then can be queried.
New code for allocator is only active when building Cycles with debug flag
(WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG) and doesn't distort regular builds too much.
Additionally now we're using own subclass of std::vector which allows us
to implement shrink_to_fit() method which would ensure capacity of the
vector is as big as it should be (without this making vector smaller will
still use all previous memory allocated).
This replaces our own implementation of aligned malloc with system calls,
which depends on which operation system you're on.
This is probably really minor noticeable change, but in the same time it
might reduce amount of wasted memory.
* 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.
