            This class deals with the runtime management of
            mesh data; like other resource managers it handles
            the creation of resources (in this case mesh data),
            working within a fixed memory budget.

                Ogre loads model files from it's own proprietary
                format called .mesh. This is because having a single file
                format is better for runtime performance, and we also have
                control over pre-processed data (such as
                collision boxes, LOD reductions etc).

        Singleton template to work, but we actually only want it
        compiled into the implementation of the class based on the
        Singleton, not all of them. If we don't change this, we get
        link errors when trying to use the Singleton-based class from
        an outside dll.
        @par
        This method just delegates to the template version anyway,
        but the implementation stays in this single compilation unit,
        preventing link errors.
