Description of Change(s)
Embree 3 has compiler issues with the latest versions of Clang. While we could opt to add patches in the build_usd.py to make it pass, it feels like there's better incentive to just move to newer Embree since it's not production critical, but is useful for validations.
I did consider keeping support for Embree 3 in addition to Embree 4, but for the same reason, it felt like it would just overcomplicate things given the limitations of the current Embree backend.
