v0.3.1: Read File Optimizations - mmap

AssetKit now provides an option to read files with mmap (Windows also supported). This options is enabled as default. To disable mmap

ak_opt_set(AK_OPT_USE_MMAP, false);

New Features:

• New Option: AK_OPT_USE_MMAP boolean, default is true.
• Expose mmap api to usable externally
• mmap-ed memories can be attached to a memory node, unmap will be called before memory node is free-ed
  • ak_mmap_rdonly(int fd, size_t size) - map file as READONLY
  • ak_unmap(void *file, size_t size)- unmap file
  • ak_mmap_attach(void *obj, void *mapped, size_t sized) - attach mmap to memory to unmap automatically
  • ak_unmmap_attached(void *obj) - unmap all attached mmap files

Bugfixes and Improvements:

• fix ak_strtok_count_fast for READONLY memory
• util: remove modes from ak_readfile and make it "rb" globally
• dae: fix writing READONLY memory
• memory: fix URL memory extension
• some other improvements

v0.3.0: PLY (Binary + ASCII) + Bugfixes and Improvements

New Features:

• AssetKit now supports PLY (both ASCII and Binary) files
• endian helper to read binary data; use common endian header for all formats (endian.h)
• documentation

Bugfixes and Improvements:

• wobj: fix loading wavefront object if there is no NORMAL (position + texture case)
• wobj: improve switching between objects (use triangle object if the target is not poly)
• wobj: join group and object separations
• add new compare func for ivec3
• wobj: group/separate primitives by usemtl: mesh primitives created for each usemtl, base buffers and accessors are shared between them
• reuse postscript functions and files
• use short names for input semantics; remove _SEMANTIC from enum constants
• improve byte swap operations and make cross platform
• rename _assetkit_hide macros to AK_HIDE
• add common strpool to avoid duplications
• stl: fix loading normals in Binary STL
• dae: fix load skin controllers
• dae: move controller postscripts to separate file
• drop stb image, let user load images themselves
• provide callbacks for loading images
• move dependencies from lib/ folder to deps/
• remove unused files, suppress warnings, update README
• remove sample-model sub repo for tests

IO: New Formats (.obj, .mtl, .stl)

AssetKit now supports Wavefront Object (.obj), Wavefront Object Material (.mtl), STL (both ASCII and Binary)

v0.1.0: Initial Release

AssetKit can glTF 2.0, COLLADA 1.4/1.4.1 and COLLADA 1.5 with single interface. It makes it easy and fast to load 3D scene to GPU.
