Currently all of data encoding, SH clusterization, quantization code is in C#/Burst within Unity. That's fine for "within Unity" use cases, but e.g. if #45 is done then it would...

enhancement

Currently all splats are rendered (and sorted), just quads that are behind camera are thrown into the sea at vertex shader level. It should be possible to do some sort...

Possibly better documentation of the format is needed, outside of what already exists in the blog posts ([one](https://aras-p.info/blog/2023/09/13/Making-Gaussian-Splats-smaller/), [two](https://aras-p.info/blog/2023/09/27/Making-Gaussian-Splats-more-smaller/)).
