The idea is to make include statements more explicit and obvious where the
file is coming from, additionally reducing chance of wrong header being
picked up.
For example, it was not obvious whether bvh.h was refferring to builder
or traversal, whenter node.h is a generic graph node or a shader node
and cases like that.
Surely this might look obvious for the active developers, but after some
time of not touching the code it becomes less obvious where file is coming
from.
This was briefly mentioned in T50824 and seems @brecht is fine with such
explicitness, but need to agree with all active developers before committing
this.
Please note that this patch is lacking changes related on GPU/OpenCL
support. This will be solved if/when we all agree this is a good idea to move
forward.

This is to help debug and track memory usage for generic buffers. We
have similar for textures already since those require a name, but for
buffers the name is only for debugging proposes.
The Progress system in Cycles had two limitations so far:
- It just counted tiles, but ignored their size. For example, when rendering a 600x500 image with 512x512 tiles, the right 88x500 tile would count for 50% of the progress, although it only covers 15% of the image.
- Scene update time was incorrectly counted as rendering time - therefore, the remaining time started very long and gradually decreased.
This patch fixes both problems:
First of all, the Progress now has a function to ignore time spans, and that is used to ignore scene update time.
The larger change is the tile size: Instead of counting samples per tile, so that the final value is num_samples*num_tiles, the code now counts every sample for every pixel, so that the final value is num_samples*num_pixels.
Along with that, some unused variables were removed from the Progress and Session classes.

Now pass_filter is modified to have exactly the flags for the light components
that need to be baked, based on the shader type. This simplifies the logic.
The combined pass is built with the contributions the user finds fit.
It is useful for lightmap baking, as well as non-view dependent effects
baking.
The manual will be updated once we get closer to the 2.77 release.

Combine all the highpoly pixel arrays into a single array with a lookup
object_id for each of the highpoly objects.
Note: This changes the Bake API, external engines should refer to the
bake_api.c for the latest API.
Many thanks for Sergey Sharybin for the complete review, changes
suggestion and feedback. (you rock!)

This problem was introduced in 983cbafd1877f8dbaae60b064a14e27b5b640f18
Basically the issue is that we were not getting a unique index in the
baking routine for the RNG (random number generator).

It now uses the tile size to split the job. For CPU this may add
overhead, but for GPU this is highly needed.

Note: RNA API can't use size_t at the moment. Once it does this patch
can be tweaked a bit to fully benefit from size_t larger dimensions.
(right now num_pixels is passed as int)

Baking progress preview is not possible, in parts due to the way the API
was designed. But at least you get to see the progress bar while baking.

Now baking does one AA sample at a time, just like final render. There is
also some code for shader antialiasing that solves T40369 but it is disabled
for now because there may be unpredictable side effects.
Expand Cycles to use the new baking API in Blender.
It works on the selected object, and the panel can be accessed in the Render panel (similar to where it is for the Blender Internal).
It bakes for the active texture of each material of the object. The active texture is currently defined as the active Image Texture node present in the material nodetree. If you don't want the baking to override an existent material, make sure the active Image Texture node is not connected to the nodetree. The active texture is also the texture shown in the viewport in the rendered mode.
Remember to save your images after the baking is complete.
Note: Bake currently only works in the CPU
Note: This is not supported by Cycles standalone because a lot of the work is done in Blender as part of the operator only, not the engine (Cycles).
