    /** 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.
