I added a CMake flag that searches for a prebuilt version of OSPRay. You just download and add the directory to the path. Also added instructions in the doc.

I made this change so I can use a local build of OSPRay so I can edit and recompile separately, but it looks like it works with prebuilt binaries. We may be able to use this to replace the default action of compiling OSPRay from scratch with just a simple binary download and link. We also wouldn't need to fork and edit for each version release.

This would be very useful.

Can you define this disjunction in CMake? Then no C++ files need to change.

WITH_OSPRAY --> BUILD_OSPRAY
WITH_OSPRAY_LOCAL --> PREBUILT_OSPRAY
Then add cmake for WITH_OSPRAY = BUILD_OSPRAY || PREBUILT_OSPRAY
A few cmake files will need to change, but no C++
