20.0.350

Moved initialization of HUDs by states from construction to entry. Python states can use a new onCreateHUD() handler to explicitly do this, but any changes requested through hou.SceneViewer.hudInfo() during construction of a state will be automatically delayed until the appropriate time.

Fixed errors in the detection of time varying stage data in the bounds auto collection. Removed the Frame parameter from Set Extents, and added a toggle to control whether manual bounds are specifying world or local space bounds. Added multisampling parameter to the Loft Payload Info LOP, and the parts of the Configure Primitives LOP that can be meaningfully time sampled (extents, visibility, and card draw mode texture maps).
