The volpath integrators currently seem to have a small epsilon issue due to the use of
ref_interaction.spawn_rayinstead ofref_interaction.spawn_ray_to. The latter computes a better/more generous shadow epsilon. Therefore, replacing this call and the use of the previous shadow epsilon fixes the epsilon issue.For renderings showcasing the problem, see #678 (towards the bottom of the thread)
