gnu: Add blender@2.79b.
Restore blender@2.79b, the last version that does not require OpenGL 3,
and therefore the last version to work on many older computers.  Note
that this commit relies on blender-2.79-newer-ffmpeg.patch and
blender-2.79-python-3.7-fix.patch, which were left in the tree when
blender@2.79b was previously removed in commit
1f14453eedfede4626a78321c66a009c9997bee4.

* gnu/packages/patches/blender-2.79-gcc8.patch,
gnu/packages/patches/blender-2.79-gcc9.patch,
gnu/packages/patches/blender-2.79-oiio2.patch,
gnu/packages/patches/blender-2.79-python-3.8-fix.patch: New files.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add them.
* gnu/packages/graphics.scm (blender-2.79): New variable.

+commit e6d803fd4a383cecf8c643095f093a31c944b785
+Author: Robert-André Mauchin <zebob.m@gmail.com>
+Date:   Wed Apr 3 01:36:52 2019 +0200
+
+    Fix for GCC9 new OpenMP data sharing
+    
+    GCC 9 started implementing the OpenMP 4.0 and later behavior. When not using
+    default clause or when using default(shared), this makes no difference, but
+    if using default(none), previously the choice was not specify the const
+    qualified variables on the construct at all, or specify in firstprivate
+    clause. In GCC 9 as well as for OpenMP 4.0 compliance, those variables need
+    to be specified on constructs in which they are used, either in shared or
+    in firstprivate clause. Specifying them in firstprivate clause is one way to
+    achieve compatibility with both older GCC versions and GCC 9,
+    another option is to drop the default(none) clause.
+    
+    This patch thus drops the default(none) clause.
+    
+    See https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-9/porting_to.html#ompdatasharing
