Eliza Velasquez 58017a0e6a Tweak documentation
This is admittedly a very nitpicky change.

For most of the changes, I went through the various Markdown files and added
language names to the source blocks for better syntax highlighting on GitHub. It
also makes it easier to copy and paste commands without copying the leading `$`.
I avoided changing anything in `third_party`.

Additionally, I added some instructions for compiling the Android samples on the
command line and fixed some typos.

Dependencies

One of our design goals is that Filament itself should have no dependencies or as few dependencies as possible. The current external dependencies of the runtime library include:

  • STL
  • robin-map (header only library)

When building with Vulkan enabled, we have a few additional small dependencies:

  • vkmemalloc
  • smol-v

Host tools (such as matc or cmgen) can use external dependencies freely.
