Shadow generator and TransformNode

Hi,

I use TransformNode as parent for my meshes and would like to add all children to ShadowGenerator, like this `addShadowCaster(node, true)` but it accepts just AbstractMesh as input there, what about changing type to TransformNode ?

Like this:

 public addShadowCaster(mesh: TransformNode, includeDescendants = true): ShadowGenerator {
            if (!this._shadowMap) {
                return this;
            }

            if (!this._shadowMap.renderList) {
                this._shadowMap.renderList = [];
            }
            // Need to check if is real mesh
            if (mesh instanceof AbstractMesh) {
                this._shadowMap.renderList.push(mesh);
            }
            if (includeDescendants) {
                this._shadowMap.renderList.push(...mesh.getChildMeshes());
            }

            return this;
        }

for `removeShadowCaster` similar

public removeShadowCaster(mesh: TransformNode, includeDescendants = true): ShadowGenerator {
            if (!this._shadowMap || !this._shadowMap.renderList) {
                return this;
            }
            // check if real mesh
            if (mesh instanceof AbstractMesh) {
                var index = this._shadowMap.renderList.indexOf(mesh);

                if (index !== -1) {
                    this._shadowMap.renderList.splice(index, 1);
                }
            }

            if (includeDescendants) {
                // use getChildMeshes instead of getChildren to support nested TransformNodes
                for (var child of mesh.getChildMeshes(true)) {
                    this.removeShadowCaster(<any>child);
                }
            }

            return this;
        }

Any objections on this ? I haven't tested / profiled change impact so its just an idea now :)

Would like to hear feedback, as maybe I am missing something here :)
