Description

Updating CesiumJS support for vector tiles to match the current draft specifications.

3D Tiles extensions

glTF extensions

Overview

For now I've kept backward compatibility with earlier (internal) drafts, e.g. CESIUM_mesh_vector, but I expect we'll drop that support after the 1.142 release.

Issue number and link

Testing plan

Updated unit tests, sample data, and sandcastle demo. Any existing datasets and sandcastles should remove unaffected and backward-compatible, until support for CESIUM_mesh_vector (which is not part of the current/upcoming Vector Tiles direction) is removed after v1.142.

@danielzhong this is ready for another review, but (if the PR otherwise looks ready to you) please do not merge this one yet, I would like to double-check on the release timing with the tilers.
