Philip Rideout 7fcd3e1a4f Java clients can now get material instances from renderables. 
Discussed this feature with Mathias, we decided to create
MaterialInstance Java wrappers on the fly, and create Material Java
wrappers lazily. This is simple and avoids caching the wrapper objects,
which might otherwise lead to complexity and bugs.

Note that gltfio creates material instances behind the scenes, so this
feature is particularly useful for gltfio clients.

Filament Release Notes log

This file contains one line summaries of commits that are worthy of mentioning in release notes. A new header is inserted each time a tag is created.

Release notes

  • Added getMaterialInstanceAt to the Java version of RenderableManager.
  • Fix JNI bindings for setting values in parameter arrays.
  • Added JNI bindings for the gltfio library.
  • Fix support for parameter arrays in .mat files.
  • Added support for RGB_11_11_10
  • Removed support for RGBM (warning: source compatibility breakage)
  • IBL cubemap can now be of any size

sceneform-1.9pr3

  • Added Scene.addEntities() to the Java / Kotlin bindings.
  • Improved robustness in the tangents utility for meshes that have tangents and normals.
  • Introduced RenderTarget API that allows View to reference an offscreen render target.
  • Added lucy_bloom sample to demonstrate the new RenderTarget API.
  • Added Screen Space Ambient Occlusion support (SAO)
  • New blending modes: multiply and screen
  • Fixed an issue when sorting blended objects with different blending modes
  • The material property curvatureToRoughness has been replaced with specularAntiAliasing. This new specular anti-aliasing solution offers more control via two new properties: specularAntiAliasingVariance and specularAntiAliasingThreshold. They can also be set on material instances if needed
  • Added specular ambient occlusion to compute a new AO term applied to specular reflections (see specularAmbientOcclusion property in materials)
  • Added multi-bounce ambient occlusion to brighten AO and preserve local color (see multiBounceAmbientOcclusion property in materials)
  • Micro-shadowing is now applied to material ambient occlusion
  • Use a smaller 64x64 DFG LUT on mobile to reduce binary size
  • Added a distance field generator to libimage.
  • JavaScript MaterialInstance now supports vec4 colors.
  • Further reduced filamat binary size by removing reliance on stdlib.
  • Added a new, smaller, version of the filamat library, filamat_lite. Material optimization and compiling for non-OpenGL backends have been removed in favor of a smaller binary size.
  • Implemented hard fences for the Metal backend, enablying dynamic resolution support.
  • Improved SurfaceOrientation robustness when using UVs to generate tangents.
  • Created a RELEASE_NOTES.md file, to be updated with significant PRs.
