Make USD and OBJ importers consistent for all properties, change hand…

…ling of material assignments, fix bugs, add option to triangulate.

Non-backward compatible changes to OBJ importer, including:
  - renamed vertex_normals to normals and fixed doc
  (this value is normals array is not num_verts x 3, but num_normals x 3)
  - renamed face_normals to face_normals_idx, which is more accurate
  - changed material_order to material_assignments tensor with material_id per face
  - materials are now returned in alphabetical order
  - fixed handling of materials for non-homogeneous meshes
  - fixed skip handling of non-homogeneous meshes

Other changes to OBJ importer:
  - added option to triangulate
  - added handler to fill in missing materials
  - added material_name to materials

Non-backward compatible changes to USD importer, including:
  - changes material_order to material_assignments tensor with material_id per face
  (this is original USD repersentation)
  - materials are now returned in alphabetical order
  - removed deprecated handlers in kaolin.io.usd

Other changes to USD importer:
  - major refactoring of the USD importer code; multiple bug fixes; more robust tests
  - added material_name to materials
  - added option to triangulate
  - fixed a bug in USD importer handling of uvs in non-homogeneous meshes

Other changes:
  - deprecated heterogeneous_mesh_handler_naive_homogenize, renaming it mesh_handler_naive_triangulate
  (as it is not specific to heterogeneous mesh handling)
  - material assignments are now properly handled during triangulation
  - modified and simplified notebooks, given changes to API
  - added multi-object multi-material test file: amsterdam.obj, amsterdam.usd
  - modified notebooks and recipes to be more robust to missing data (e.g. shapenet)
  and to run both locally and on CI
  - added IO consistency checks for OBJ/USD for the new amsterdam mesh
  - removed heterogeneous_mesh_handler_empty, as we will no longer be able to support it with Mesh API
