llCastRay - Add RC_DETECT_PROBES (Default FALSE)

The use cases for detecting reflection probes in llCastRay are very limited. I would argue that a raycast detecting a reflection probe is more than likely unwanted interference the vast majority of the time.
Existing creations that use llCastRay were built before reflection probes were a thing are likely to break in subtle ways as users begin to place reflection probes everywhere.
I propose adding a new flag, RC_DETECT_PROBES, which defaults to FALSE, only if the creator manually sets this to TRUE shall raycasts pick up probe volumes.

I can hit the probe using RC_DETECT_PHANTOM, Thanks for the request, Extrude Ragu !

Not sure what would be the use case for wanting to detect the probes. LL are probably more likely to fix it by not letting cast ray detects the probe at all. This really should be more of a bug report than a suggestion.

Vincent NaconThere maybe instance where you want to detect if a probe exists or not, having the option is better than not.
