[Radiance-general] Interpolate BSDFs

Hi German,

there will be no light loss. However interpolation does not increase resolution. Think of it as if you were taking a picture with a smartphone from the 90's - the overall average luminance may be correct, but you will never be able to add information on detail in between the pixels by interpolation. So if you want / need high resolution, run genBSDF accordingly.

Cheers, Lars.
