Interface IMixedRealitySceneSystem

Interface for managing scenes in Unity. Scenes are divided into three categories: Manager, Lighting and Content.

The Manager scene is loaded first and remains loaded for the duration of the app. Only one Manager scene is ever loaded, and no scene operation will ever unload it.

The Lighting scene is a largely empty scene which controls lighting settings. Ambient lighting, skybox, sun direction, etc. A default lighting scene is loaded on initialization. After that the active lighting scene may be changed at any time via SetLightingScene. Only one lighting scene can ever be loaded at a time.

Content scenes are everything else. These can be loaded and unloaded at will in any combination.

The scene actions provided improve on unity's SceneManagement events by ensuring that scenes are considered valid before the action is invoked.
