Add an argsort_direction() function to chroma.tools and use it to
group photons so that they take similar paths on the GPU.
argsort_direction() morton-orders an array of normalized direction
vectors according to their spherical coordinates. Photons sorted in
this way tend to follow similar paths through a detector geometry,
which enhances cache locality. As a result, get_node() uses the GPU
L1 cache again, with good results.
