Bug fixes:

• Several documentation, installation and correctness fixes including: expsumlog in soft blending replaced with torch.prod which makes soft blending backward pass stable | https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d/commit/ba11c0b59cb53d50dc5f50e0e0148b3f2e43f39f
• Fix matrix convention for rotations in Tranforms3D | https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d/commit/8301163d2466799ba932eae9ff7170110711bff6
• Rendering flipping - the y axis flip in the blending functions has been removed and the rasterization step has been updated to ensure the directions of the axes are correct in the rendered image. The documentation for the renderer has been updated with the convention for world and camera coordinates. | https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d/commit/15c72be444fab0d1ba6879d097399b12f6a2a8b0

Breaking changes

• The spelling of /Gourad/ has been fixed to /Gouraud/. | https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d/commit/9ca5489107ce887875cb4c24059c8810119ebe11
• Shaders have been renamed to make clear if they are Hard or Soft (probabilistic) | https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d/commit/f0dc65110aa9687e83712950f6d47b280761f078
