Display a 360 degree video on an approximately spherical surface, useful for VR applications or skyboxes. As a subclass of Node, this allow parenting to the camera or multiple videos with different locations in the scene. This class achieves its effect with a VideoTexture and a correctly configured BackgroundMaterial on an inverted sphere. Potential additions to this helper include non-infinite distance rendering effects for VR.
Create an instance of this class and pass through the parameters to the relevant classes, VideoTexture, StandardMaterial, and Mesh.

| urlsOrVideo | string[] or HTMLVideoElement | See VideoTexture | |
| options | Object | Non optional, provide empty object at minimum to compile. | |
| options.resolution=12 | int | Lower resolutions have more artifacts at extreme fovs | |
| options.clickToPlay=false | bool | Add a click to play listener to the video, does not prevent autoplay. | |
| options.autoPlay=true | bool | Automatically attempt to being playing the video. | |
| options.loop=true | bool | Automatically loop video on end. | |
| options.size=10000 | number | Physical radius to create the dome at, defaults to approximately half the far clip plane. |
The current fov(field of view) multiplier, 0.0 - 2.0. Defaults to 1.0. Lower values "zoom in" and higher values "zoom out". Also see the options.resolution property.
