JavaScript utilities to create .XKT files

/**
 * @desc Creates wireframe text-shaped geometry arrays.
 *
 * ## Usage
 *
 * In the example below we'll create an {@link XKTModel}, then create an {@link XKTMesh} with a text-shaped {@link XKTGeometry}.
 *
 * [[Run this example](http://xeokit.github.io/xeokit-sdk/examples/#geometry_builders_buildVectorTextGeometry)]
 *
 * ````javascript
 * const xktModel = new XKTModel();
 *
 * const text = buildVectorTextGeometry({
 *      origin: [0,0,0],
 *      text: "On the other side of the screen, it all looked so easy"
 * });
 *
 * const xktGeometry = xktModel.createGeometry({
 *      geometryId: "textGeometry",
 *      primitiveType: text.primitiveType, // Will be "lines"
 *      positions: text.positions,
 *      indices: text.indices
 * });
 *
 * const xktMesh = xktModel.createMesh({
 *      meshId: "redTextMesh",
 *      geometryId: "textGeometry",
 *      position: [-4, -6, -4],
 *      scale: [1, 3, 1],
 *      rotation: [0, 0, 0],
 *      color: [1, 0, 0],
 *      opacity: 1
 * });
 *
 * const xktEntity = xktModel.createEntity({
 *      entityId: "redText",
 *      meshIds: ["redTextMesh"]
 *  });
 *
 * xktModel.finalize();
 * ````
 *
