Add support for AssetGenerator #666

Closed sebjf closed 5 months ago

sebjf commented 9 months ago

Description

We want to replace Unity AssetBundles with our own transport format that will bypass the WASM VM, and load faster. These assets will be built by a separate library.

Goals

[x] AssetGenerator is an optional dependency
[x] Control is based on a CMake argument
[x] Bundles are built using the AssetGenerator library and written to the database

Tasks

[x] Add AssetGenerator as a git submodule
[x] Update AssetsList so that it can support different assets

Things to discuss:

How to determine assets lists?

Currently unityAssets reads the document in .stash.unity3d for the revision, which contains all the assets as well as the offset.
For SRCs, the response is built dynamically by iterating each mesh in .stash.3drepo and adding the offset from the revision (we have discussed removing the stash however...)
