that's range sigma. this bilateral filter is a 5d gaussian blur with 5
standard deviations sigma_x, sigma_y (spatial sigmas) and the range
sigmas sigma_{r,g,b}. the first two we keep in sync, so that's only
exposed as a single radius. so the first two units are pixels, the
other three are color differences in linear camera raw rgb.

ah, sorry. i was off by a factor of 1000 or so. the important bit is the ratio.

with the green slider in the bilateral denoise module.
