To make the scene creation process more flexible we support optional *feature flags* that can be passed at scene creation time. Feature flags are used to turn on or off some options when creating scenes.

`FeatureFlags` is a set-like object that holds the flags. There are three ways to establish a set of flags:

- Defaults (some flags will be set): `FeatureFlags.default()`
- Empty (no flags are set): `FeatureFlags()`
- Custom (exactly the specified flags are
  set): `FeatureFlags(FeatureFlags.PointCloudFeatures.MOTION_COMPENSATION)`

The `FeatureFlags` constructor takes one or more params, each of which is a flag from the lists defined below. If the argument `feature_flags` is not passed when creating a scene (i.e. `feature_flags=None`), then the default set will be used.

## Currently Supported Features
