big lamps and sharp glossy reflections. This was already supported for mesh
lights and the background, so lamps should do it too.
This is not for free and it's a bit slower than I hoped even though there is
no extra BVH ray intersection. I'll try to optimize it more later.
* Area lights look a bit different now, they had the wrong shape before.
* Also fixes a sampling issue in the non-progressive integrator.
* Only enabled for the CPU, will test on the GPU later.
* An option to disable this will be added for situations where it does not help.

The 'use_panorama' option is now part of a new Camera type: 'Panorama'.
Created two other panorama cameras:
- Equisolid: most of lens in the market simulate this lens - e.g. Nikon, Canon, ...)
this works as a real lens up to an extent. The final result takes the
sensor dimensions into account also.
.:. to simulate a Nikon DX2S with a 10.5mm lens do:
sensor: 23.7 x 15.7
fisheye lens: 10.5
fisheye fov: 180
render dimensions: 4288 x 2848
- Equidistant: this is not a real lens model. Although the old equidistant lens simulate
this lens. The result is always as a circular fisheye that takes the whole sensor
(in other words, it doesn't take the sensor into consideration).
This is perfect for fulldomes ;)
For the UI we have 10 to 360 as soft values and 10 to 3600 as hard values (because we can).

Note, this is not a real simulation of the light path through the lens.
The ideal solution would be this:

Thanks Brecht for the fix, suggestions and code review.
Kudos for the dome community for keeping me stimulated on the topic since 2009 ;)
Patch partly implemented during lab time at VisGraf, IMPA - Rio de Janeiro.
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.
environment map, by enabling the Panorama option in the camera.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Camera#Panorama
The focal length or sensor settings are not used, the UI can be tweaked still to
communicate this, also panorama should probably become a proper camera type like
perspective or ortho.
* Reduce kernel arguments size, helps compile for apple nvidia.
* Fix use of unitialized variable in displace kernel.
* Use build flags in opencl kernel md5 hash.
* Reorganize code for kernel feature #defines a bit.
* Passes renamed to samples
* Camera lens radius renamed to aperature size/blades/rotation
* Glass and fresnel nodes input is now index of refraction
* Glossy and velvet fresnel socket removed
* Mix/add closure node renamed to mix/add shader node
* Blend weight node added for shader mixing weights
There is some version patching code for reading existing files, but it's not
perfect, so shaders may work a bit different.
