Order copyright immediately after the license block,
this was done almost everywhere with a few exceptions.
Remove authors from a few files (we had already removed "Contributors"
section however with old patches being applied this gets added back in).
Also move descriptive text into the doxygen comment block under \file.
In some cases remove the text as it was accidentally copied.
- Nest compositor pages under the compositor module
- Nest GUI, DNA/RNA & externformats modules under Blender.
- Remove modules from intern which no longer exist.
- Add intern modules (atomic, eigen, glew-mx, libc_compat, locale,
numaapi, rigidbody, sky, utfconv).
- Use 'intern_' prefix for intern modules since some of the modules
use generic terms such as locale & atomic.
This allows to use fewer evaluations (30 msec down to 23 for me) while giving more accurate results (3x-10x less relative absolute error) compared to classic ray marching.
Not a massive difference, but meh, it's better. For Cycles the speedup doesn't really matter much, but I also have a patch for Eevee support.
I've also tried Gauss-Legendre and Gauss-Lobatto - the latter was always worse, while the former was slightly better at 2deg elevation but notably worse on 15deg.
Unfortunately the same approach can't be used for the integration along the primary ray, since there we also need the accumulated transmission so far at every integration point, not just the total result.

The sky will appear brighter than before by default. To compensate for this,
lower exposure in the Film panel. The default altitude was also changed from
90 to 15 degrees.

I'm not sure if the Sky was deliberately left out or was just waiting for a
better moment, but so many I was disappointed that Sky in EEVEE is
completely white.
There are already 2 implementations (osl and gpu) so this is the third one.
Looking at other cases it seems that we are not supposed to share sources
between cycles and the rest? So the new util_sky_model files are just
copies of what is already in cycles, except that the data file uses the RGB
variant of the Hosek/Wilkie model, because we output RGB anyway (but can be
easily changed to XYZ if desired - the results are nearly identical).
I am not sure if it is okay to pass 3*9 float values as 3 mat4 uniforms (I
wanted to use mat3 but it does not work).
Also, should I cache the sky model data between renders if the parameters
do not change?
