[Papervision3D] Help with basic collada loading

[Trevor Burton]

The Collada class was the parser used to load and parse COLLADA (.dae) files
prior to papervision3d 2.0 - since 2.0 (which is the GreatWhite branch)
collada files have been parsed using TIm Knip's ascollada code - and use the
DAE class as the entry point for this behaviour.... so if you're using 1.5or
1.9 use Collada.as - if you're using 2.0 use the DAE class.

Remember, though, that GreatWhite(2.0) is alpha - so subject to change, so
if you're working on a production project it's probably best to avoid it for
now. If you're just learning, however, go for it - cause in the next few
months it will become the trunk of the project.
