OSL setmessage/getmessage support

Please, add normal setmessage/getmessage support into OSL. Currently, there only one use case for getmessage: getting trace data. The missing part is saving small values for object and retrieve them in another sample points/shaders.

This is higly needed to do custom caching of per-object calcualtions in OSL shader

I'd like to see support in Cycles for strings in the node graph, to plug into texture names or shader settings. This could be how get/set message manifests itself in Cycles.
