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:
None of the current test_build tests make sense during `conda build`.
Also remove the unnecessary dependency on the `six` library.

Summary: The conda build process generates some files of its own, which we don't want to catch in our test for copyright notices.

Summary: Run linter after recent changes. Fix long comment in knn.h which clang-format has reflowed badly. Add crude test that code doesn't call deprecated `.type()` or `.data()`.
