This is a new navigation mode for QgsCameraController which is meant to work
just like the terrain-based navigation mode, but for 3D scenes with globe.
Initially, the new navigation mode can handle:
- zooming in/out with mouse wheel
- orbit around globe when dragging with left mouse button pressed
- left/right/up/down keys to orbit around globe
- shift + left/right keys to change heading angle
- shift + up/down keys to change pitch angle
- page up/page down keys to increase/decrease elevation
For camera pose, we use QgsCameraPose as for "flat" scenes, but the QCamera
is positioned/rotated slightly differently - the main change is that in case
of globe, we use ECEF coordinates of the camera pose's center point, convert
them to lat/lon coordinates in order to set up initial rotation of the camera
so that it is perpendicular to the tangent plane at the given ECEF coordinate.
This introduces a new class QgsGeoTransform (derived from QTransform)
that keeps chunk's translation vector as a QgsVector3D (i.e. in double
coordinates) and if there is a shift of the origin, 3D map scene and
chunk entities react to it by adjusting the underlying QTransform.
Create a small, cheap to copy (non-qobject) class
Qgs3DMapSettingsSnapshot which is designed to store
just cheap properties of Qgs3DMapSettings. Then use this
object wherever possible to avoid accessing the (non-thread
safe) Qgs3DMapSettings object for retrieval of simple
map properties (eg crs, extent, ...)

The 3D scene's CRS is not necessarily the same as the project's
CRS. For example, it can be "EPSG:3857" if the project's CRS is
geographic.
The stored extent in the settings is always the 3D scene's extent.
