asymmetry for userdata vs attributes with ShadingSystemImpl::getattribute

[etheory]

Problem

In

OpenShadingLanguage/src/liboslexec/shadingsys.cpp

Line 1927 in bd7fd4c

 ShadingSystemImpl::getattribute(ShaderGroup* group, string_view name, 

we have:

• num_userdata
• userdata_names
• userdata_types
• userdata_offsets
• userdata_derivs

but only:

• num_attributes_needed
• attributes_needed
• attribute_scopes
• unknown_attributes_needed

which is missing a types, offsets and derivs for attributes.

This issue is to log the need for parity across these.

The mis-matching names are already a little bit confusing, so some kind of homogenization would also make sense.

Expected behavior:

I expect userdata and attributes to provide the same abilities for query during llvm compilation.

Actual behavior:

I don't have parity for userdata and attribute queries.

Steps to Reproduce

NA

NOTE

I know this should be a PR, which I'll try and get to, but for the moment, I figured an issue would make sense.

Thanks!
