Better performance for `RenderableOrbitalKepler` when running `Trails`, `Points` or `Points+Trails`.
Trails optimized by culling non-visible line strips.
Points optimized by changing a lot of calculations from double to float.
A passover of all the Parameters descriptions and PropertyInfo descriptions of the renderables in the code base to make then more consistently and concisely formatted. Also fixed some small issues and added or updated descriptions.
* Start rephrasing propertyinfos for more consistency
* Update eclipse cone propertyinfos
* Update `RenderableFov` property infos and group colors in UI
* `RenderableGalaxy` and `RenderableGlobe`
* Update more descriptions
* Moore descriptions
* Update docs for `RenderableShadowCylinder` and add properties
* `RenderableSkyTarget`, and spheres (`ImageOnline` and `ImageLocal`)
* `RnederableSphericalGrid`, and update line width info of other types, for consistency
* `RenderableStars` and `RenderableTimeVaryingSphere`
* Update more propertyinfos
* Fix inconsistent mentioning of true/false
* change some phrasings for increased consistency
* Update Renderbin description to include Sticker bin and remove extra property
* Rename `OutlineWeight` -> `OutlineWidth`
* Extend description about enable depth test for models
* Clarify what relative values mean for `RenderableNodeArrow`
* Elaborate on `RenderableLabel` size property

Fixes following issues: #625 , #1067 , #1212 , #1472 , #2072 , #2235, #2964
- Trails in `renderableTrailTrajectory` now goes through the spacecraft when using `AccurateTrailPositions`.
- Trail fading controls have been improved for classes using the `renderableTrail` class.
- `renderableOrbitalKepler` (asteroids/satellites) can now be rendered as both trails and points (or both at once). Solution implements similar functionality/controls as `renderablePointCloud`.
- Default setting for SweepChunking has been changed from `true` to `false` (iterative calculations of `renderableTrailTrajectory`).
- Some fixes related to missing points or off-by-one errors related to trail rendering
