Fixed an H18 regression in Mantra that caused deforming agent shapes to be rendered incorrectly if the shape binding was attached to a joint with a non-identity transform.

Make hou.SopNode.inputGeometryAtFrame() consistent with hou.SopNode.geometryAtFrame() so that it returns a frozen copy of the geometry, with data id's cloned. This may break backwards compatibility.

There's a new VEX function (importance_remap) which will remap uv coordinates to new uv coordinates based on the important (bright) areas of texture maps. This can be used to re-distribute texture coordinates to based on texture map values.
