039e02601d examples and docs.
Summary: This diff updates the documentation and tutorials with information about the new pulsar backend. For more information about the pulsar backend, see the release notes and the paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.07484). For information on how to use the backend, see the point cloud rendering notebook and the examples in the folder docs/examples.

d330765847 Website and docs updates
Summary:
- Added sbranson's fit mesh tutorial to the website
- Updated rendering docs with info about texturing and new shader types.

TODO:
- add pointcloud rendering tutorial to the website as well (https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d/blob/master/docs/tutorials/render_colored_points.ipynb)
- docs for camera
- update some tutorials which depended on the Textures from structures.

9ef1ee8455 coarse rasterization bug fix
Summary:
Fix a bug which resulted in a rendering artifacts if the image size was not a multiple of 16.
Fix: Revert coarse rasterization to original implementation and only update fine rasterization to reverse the ordering of Y and X axis. This is much simpler than the previous approach!

Additional changes:
- updated mesh rendering end-end tests to check outputs from both naive and coarse to fine rasterization.
- added pointcloud rendering end-end tests

d01e722849 Fix coordinate system conventions in point cloud renderer
Summary:
Applying the changes added for mesh rasterization to ensure that +Y is up and +X is left so that the coordinate system is right handed.

Also updated the diagram in the docs to indicate that (0,0) is in the top left hand corner.

15c72be444 Fix coordinate system conventions in renderer
Summary:
## Updates

- Defined the world and camera coordinates according to this figure. The world coordinates are defined as having +Y up, +X left and +Z in.

{F230888499}

- Removed all flipping from blending functions.
- Updated the rasterizer to return images with +Y up and +X left.
- Updated all the mesh rasterizer tests
    - The expected values are now defined in terms of the default +Y up, +X left
    - Added tests where the triangles in the meshes are non symmetrical so that it is clear which direction +X and +Y are

## Questions:
- Should we have **scene settings** instead of raster settings?
    - To be more correct we should be [z clipping in the rasterizer based on the far/near clipping planes](https://github.com/ShichenLiu/SoftRas/blob/master/soft_renderer/cuda/soft_rasterize_cuda_kernel.cu#L400) - these values are also required in the blending functions so should we make these scene level parameters and have a scene settings tuple which is available to the rasterizer and shader?
