Summary

Only copy required part of volume stack instead of entire stack.

Solves time regression introduced by D12759 and avoids need in
implementing volume stack calculation to exactly match what the
path tracing will do (as well as potentially makes scenes with
a lot of volumes ans a tiny bit of deeply nested ones render
faster).

Still need to look into memory aspect of the regression, but
that is for separate patch.
