-Split VariationList into .h/cpp files.
--Make VariationList.cpp the only place where the variations files are included from. This speeds up the build, but variations can no longer be directly instantiated.
--Variations are no longer exported.
-Allow for pausing the renderer in the main window. This makes is more efficient when entering many parameters, such as when following a tutorial.
-Add support for new variations: erf, gamma, jac_cn, jac_dn, jac_sn, logDB, pressure_wave, pRose3D, splits3D, w, waves2b, x, xerf, y, z.
-Inform user of the start and stop of file parsing in EmberAnimate because the files could potentially be very large.
-Move the follwing fields to a new table called Animation: Interpolation, Affine Interpolation, Temporal Samples, Temporal Filter Width, Temporal Filter Type.
-These currently have no effect on the interactive renderer and instead are used when running flames through EmberGenome to generate sequences, and then animating them in Fractorium or EmberAnimate.
-Add new parameter overrides for EmberRender and EmberAnimate which directly assign values to all flames being rendered, rather than scale:
--quality
--demin
--demax
--Bug fixes
-Left pad instead of right pad names of sequence outputs from EmberGenome.
-Unique file naming was broken for files which already had an underscore in them.
-Properly report that png is the default format of EmberRender and EmberAnimate output instead of erroneously claiming it was jpg.
-Make command line programs search these folders in this order for the palette file:
./
~/.fractorium
~/.config/fractorium
/usr/share/fractorium
/usr/local/share/fractorium
-Fix possible bad values in hexes.
-Better assignment of Z variables.
-Fix boarders due to use of poorly implemented rint() function from flam3. Use std::rint() now.
-wedge_sph was completely wrong due to having accidentally swapped the mapping of two parameters.
-Make juliascope juliascope_power parameter be of type REAL_NONZERO since it's used as a denominator.
-Make Z assignment compatible with the originals in:
-arch, bcircle, bCollide, bent, bent2, bisplit, blob, blur_linear, blur_square, bMod, boarders, boarders2, bSwirl, bTransform, butterfly, cardioid, cell, circleblur, circlize, circlize2, circus, collideoscope, cos, cosine, cosh, coth, cpow, cpow2, crescents, cropn, csc, csch, curl, curve, dc_gridout, deltaa, diamond, disc2, eclipse, eCollide, edisc, eJulia, elliptic, eMod, eMotion, ennepers, epispiral, ePush, eRotate, eScale, eSwirl, ex, exp, expo, exponential, fan, fdisc, fibonacci, fibonacci2, fisheye, flipcircle, flipy, flower, flux, funnel, glynnia, GlynnSim1, GlynnSim2, GlynnSim3, gridout, handkerchief, heart, hole, idisc, julia, julian2, juliaNab, kaleidoscope, lazyTravis, Lissajous, mask, MobiusN, mobius_strip, modulus, murl, murl2, npolar, ortho, oscilloscope, parabola, perspective, petal, phoenix_julia, pie (was also inconsistent between cpu and gpu), poincare, popcorn, popcorn2, power, pow_block, rational3, rays, rblur, rings, rippled, roundspher, sec, secant2, sigmoid, sin, sineblur, sinh, sinusgrid, sphericaln, spiralwing, spirograph, split, squarize, squirrel, squish, sschecks, starblur, stripes, stwin, super_shape, tan, tancos, tangent, tanh, TwinTrian, twoface, unpolar, waves, wavesn, wedge_julia, whorl, xheart, zblur, zscale.
--Code changes
-Generalize Variation::PrecalcHelper() and rename to PrePostPrecalcHelper().
--Do the same for the OpenCL version and rename it PrePostPrecalcOpenCLString().
-Rename Variation::m_AssignType to m_PrePostAssignType since it's only relevant to pre/post variations.
-Add new variations: crackle, dc_perlin.
-Make default palette interp mode be linear instead of step.
-Make summary tab the selected one in the Info tab.
-Allow for highlight power of up to 10. It was previously limited to 2.
--Bug fixes
-Direct color calculations were wrong.
-Flattening was not applied to final xform.
-Fix "pure virtual function call" error on shutdown.
--Code changes
-Allow for array precalc params in variations by adding a size member to the ParamWithName class.
-In IterOpenCLKernelCreator, memcpy precalc params instead of a direct assign since they can now be of variable length.
-Add new file VarFuncs to consolidate some functions that are common to multiple variations. This also contains texture data for crackle and dc_perlin.
-Place OpenCL versions of these functions in the FunctionMapper class in the EmberCL project.
-Add new Singleton class that uses CRTP, is thread safe, and deletes after the last reference goes away. This fixes the usual "delete after main()" problem with singletons that use the static local function variable pattern.
-Began saving files with AStyle autoformatter turned on. This will eventually touch all files as they are worked on.
-Add missing backslash to CUDA include and library paths for builds on Nvidia systems.
-Add missing gl.h include for Windows.
-Remove glew include paths from Fractorium, it's not used.
-Remove any Nvidia specific #defines and build targets, they are no longer needed with OpenCL 1.2.
-Fix bad paths on linux build.
-General cleanup.
-Add support for multiple GPU devices.
--These options are present in the command line and in Fractorium.
-Change scheme of specifying devices from platform,device to just total device index.
--Single number on the command line.
--Change from combo boxes for device selection to a table of all devices in Fractorium.
-Temporal samples defaults to 100 instead of 1000 which was needless overkill.

--Remove some unused variables.
-EmberGenome, EmberRender:
--Support multi-GPU processing that alternates full frames between devices.

--Remove bucketT template parameter, and hard code float in its place.
-EmberRender:

-EmberCLPch.h:
--#pragma once only on Windows.
--#include <atomic>.
-IterOpenCLKernelCreator.h: Add new kernel for summing two histograms. This is needed for multi-GPU.

--Add members to cache the values of global memory size and max allocation size.
-RendererCL.h/cpp:
--Redesign to accomodate multi-GPU.

--Remove DumpErrorReport() function, it's handled in the base.
--ClearBuffer(), ReadPoints(), WritePoints(), ReadHist() and WriteHist() now optionally take a device index as a parameter.

-EmberOptions.h:
--Remove --platform option, it's just sequential device number now with the --device option.
--Make --out be OPT_USE_RENDER instead of OPT_RENDER_ANIM since it's an error condition when animating. It makes no sense to write all frames to a single image.
--Add Devices() function to parse comma separated --device option string and return a vector of device indices.
--Make int and uint types be 64-bit, so intmax_t and size_t.

-FinalRenderDialog.h/cpp:

-Misc: Convert almost everything to size_t for unsigned, intmax_t for signed.
-Add motion support from Simon Detheridge at the ember level instead of just individual xforms:
Add the ability to manipulate camera pitch, yaw and other goodies during flame rotation using a new element specified at the top-level of the flame.
Create a new 'saw' motion function, so that these values can effectively be looped (e.g. yaw -1 to +1) over the course of a rotation.
Add an offset to existing motion elements, to start them partway through their cycle. This would (for example) enable creating circular motion of xform affines, by combining two offset sine waves, one with an offset of 0.25 or 0.75.
Fix loops in EmberGenome (they only had an on/off effect - this was broken in flame-genome as well) and make the loop count floating-point as well. For sequence animations, it's not necessary for clips to loop precisely if they're not designed specifically for the ES project.
Similarly, there's no need for motion_frequency to be an integer value either so this was changed to allow motion that doesn't necessarily start or end at the loop boundary.
I've attempted to keep each bit of functionality in its own commit.
There's an argument as to whether to call the new flame motion elements <flame_motion/> (to differentiate programmatically) or just <motion/> (for consistency within the file) -- I opted for the former because it was easier to modify the xml parser that way.
--Code changes
-Change FlameMotion.h to EmberMotion.h to keep the naming convention consistent.
-Made elements of EmberMotion.m_MotionParams into their own type, MotionParam, which allows for CopyVec() to work.
-Change m_FlameMotionElements to m_EmberMotionElements in Ember.
-Use CopyVec() for EmberMotion instead of manual copy in copy constructors.
-Add exports in Ember.cpp for EmberMotion.
-Format eEmberMotionParam enum with one entry per line since it has many entries.
-Use fabs() in XmlToEmber instead of glm::abs.
-Minor formatting.
This avoids clang error in release mode: atom not found in symbolIndex(__ZN7EmberNs11EmberReport23StaticErrorReportStringERKNSt3__16vectorINS1_12basic_stringIcNS1_11char_traitsIcEENS1_9allocatorIcEEEENS6_IS8_EEEE) for architecture x86_64
