[X3D-Ecosystem] ANARI Demo Viewer

[John Carlson]

I found that pynari was a good fit, and it does refraction and reflection
out of the box.  Now if only the conversion tools I use could understood
X3D better, I could convert to X3D easily.  Like not putting a fromNode
attribute in a connect statement.

Grr!
