7b873b0662 Add safe_normalize to cycles, avoid checking length first
This won't give any big speedup,
just avoids redundant sqrtf and may be useful in future.

44d1c92e60 Cycles: add ptex face ID and UV attributes.
Not the most memory efficient way to store these things but it's simple and
implementing it better requires some work to natively support subd grids as
a primitive in some way.

731ffd3cd4 Cycles: remove approximate subdivision surface with gregory patches code.
It was never fully implemented and will be replaced by OpenSubdiv. Only linear
subdivision remains now. Also includes some refactoring in the split/dice code,
adding a SubdParams struct to pass around parameters more easily.

9e4914e055 Cycles:
* Revert r57203 (len() renaming)
There seems to be a problem with nVidia OpenCL after this and I haven't figured out the real cause yet. 
Better to selectively enable native length() later, after figuring out what's wrong. 

This fixes [#35612].

c5ed6765b9 Cycles / Math functions:
* Rename some math functions:
len -> length
len_squared -> length_squared
normalize_len -> normalize_length

* This way OpenCL uses its inbuilt length() function, rather than our own. The other two functions have been renamed for consistency. 
* Tested CPU, CUDA and OpenCL compile, should be no functional changes.

57cf48e7c6 Cycles Hair: refactoring to support generic attributes for hair curves. There
should be no functional changes yet. UV, tangent and intercept are now stored
as attributes, with the intention to add more like multiple uv's, vertex
colors, generated coordinates and motion vectors later.

Things got a bit messy due to having both triangle and curve data in the same
mesh data structure, which also gives us two sets of attributes. This will get
cleaned up when we split the mesh class.

1d8c798188 Cycles: support for motion vector and UV passes.
Most of the changes are related to adding support for motion data throughout
the code. There's some code for actual camera/object motion blur raytracing
but it's unfinished (it badly slows down the raytracing kernel even when the
option is turned off), so that code it disabled still.

Motion vector export from Blender tries to avoid computing derived meshes
when the mesh does not have a deforming modifier, and it also won't store
motion vectors for every vertex if only the object or camera is moving.

da376e0237 Cycles render engine, initial commit. This is the engine itself, blender modifications and build instructions will follow later.
Cycles uses code from some great open source projects, many thanks them:

* BVH building and traversal code from NVidia's "Understanding the Efficiency of Ray Traversal on GPUs":

* Open Shading Language for a large part of the shading system:
http://code.google.com/p/openshadinglanguage/
* Blender for procedural textures and a few other nodes.
* Approximate Catmull Clark subdivision from NVidia Mesh tools:
