Add an example displaying Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles:

I've tried to display these tiles in iTowns, I had to do some workaround but the result is nice and probably worth the integration: We need to;

• Implement a new C3DTilesSource (like what was done with C3DTilesIonSource). It's necessary to request the Google tiles by giving the API key and sessionId for each call.
• Implement a GLTFParser and a C3DTGLTFExtension to handle 3DTILES_content_gltf
• Don't forget to enableDracoLoader

I did a quick test of the implementation but my work is not good enough for a PR, the tiles are not correclty loaded, some faulty behaviors. But I believe that it could be implementable without too much effort. Faulty loading of tiles:

Cool thanks! Regarding "faulty loading of tiles", it looks like some tiles may be under the ground, we can try to offset each tile a little bit to verify if it's not the cause of the wrong display

You were right, by hiding the globe layer, we can see that the tiles are loaded . Still unstable though.

that may come from the bounding boxes that are considered axis aligned while they should not. I'm currently working on that

@jailln perhaps fixing this issue you'll find the reason why Cesium renders sphere boxes more stable than itowns does. Previously it was mentioned in these issues: 1, 2, 3
