Summary:
- Updated the C++/CUDA mesh rasterization kernels to handle the clipped faces. In particular this required careful handling of the distance calculation for faces which are cut into a quadrilateral by the image plane and then split into two sub triangles i.e. both sub triangles can't be part of the top K faces.
- Updated `rasterize_meshes.py` to use the utils functions to clip the meshes and convert the fragments back to in terms of the unclipped mesh
- Added end to end tests

Summary:
There are a couple of options for supporting non square images:
1) NDC stays at [-1, 1] in both directions with the distance calculations all modified by (W/H). There are a lot of distance based calculations (e.g. triangle areas for barycentric coordinates etc) so this requires changes in many places.
2) NDC is scaled by (W/H) so the smallest side has [-1, 1]. In this case none of the distance calculations need to be updated and only the pixel to NDC calculation needs to be modified.
I decided to go with option 2 after trying option 1!
API Changes:
- Image size can now be specified optionally as a tuple
TODO:
- add a benchmark test for the non square case.

Summary:
This diff integrates the pulsar renderer source code into PyTorch3D as an alternative backend for the PyTorch3D point renderer. This diff is the first of a series of three diffs to complete that migration and focuses on the packaging and integration of the source code.
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`.
Tasks addressed in the following diffs:
* Add the PyTorch3D interface,
* Add notebook examples and documentation (or adapt the existing ones to feature both interfaces).

Summary:
Fix default setting of `max_faces_per_bin` and update mesh rasterization benchmark tests.
The previous setting of `max_faces_per_bin` was wrong and for larger mesh sizes and batch sizes it was causing a significant slow down due to an unecessarily large intermediate tensor being created.

Summary: The shebang line `#!<path to interpreter>` is only required for Python scripts, so remove it on source files for class or function definitions. Additionally explicitly mark as executable the actual Python scripts in the codebase.
