Noticed that normal maps (bump maps) are incorrectly loaded as the 'Height' type textures.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Get a model with a bump/normal map.
2. Load it and observe that the normal map is of 'Height' type, rather than 
'Normals'. Note that 'Height' type should contain a displacement map if any.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect normal maps to be loaded as Normals textures.
Normal maps are loaded as Height textures.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Well, the one before the latest. Cannot get the latest to work at the moment 
due to the Tesla problem.

Please provide any additional information below.
Attaching sample DAE model on which you can easily repro the issue.

A quick look at the material code and I don't see a typo with the texture 
types. A quick google search yields some discussions on the Assimp SF forum 
(and others) that apparently Assimp uses the Height map tex type to store bump 
maps. Seems to be on the unmanaged importer end.

I had this thought at the back of my mind, should have checked it rather than 
posting a new issue. Thanks!
That contradicts their documentation... Strange no one has done anything about 
it.

Closing this since its a cooky behavior of the assimp collada importer.
