        /** This class allows you to plug in new ways to define the camera setup when
                rendering and projecting shadow textures.
        @remarks
                The default projection used when rendering shadow textures is a uniform
                frustum. This is pretty straight forward but doesn't make the best use of 
                the space in the shadow map since texels closer to the camera will be larger, 
                resulting in 'jaggies'. There are several ways to distribute the texels
                in the shadow texture differently, and this class allows you to override
                that. 
        @par
                Ogre is provided with several alternative shadow camera setups, including
                LiSPSM (LiSPSMShadowCameraSetup) and Plane Optimal (PlaneOptimalShadowCameraSetup).
                Others can of course be written to incorporate other algorithms. All you 
                have to do is instantiate one of these classes and enable it using 
                SceneManager::setShadowCameraSetup (global) or Light::setCustomShadowCameraSetup
                (per light). In both cases the instance is wrapped in a SharedPtr which means
                it will  be deleted automatically when no more references to it exist.
        @note
        Shadow map matrices, being projective matrices, have 15 degrees of freedom.
                3 of these degrees of freedom are fixed by the light's position.  4 are used to
                affinely affect z values.  6 affinely affect u,v sampling.  2 are projective
                degrees of freedom.  This class is meant to allow custom methods for 
                handling optimization.
