WebGLInfo does not include the scene background geometry

[WestLangley]

In the renderer.info stats, the scene background is additive to memory.textures and programs, but not to memory.geometry.

And even after this bug is corrected, this still can be confusing when trying to understand or keep track of gpu memory.

I'm thinking it would be better if we listed the background separately. Something like this:

renderer.info.background
	geometries: 1 // currently this displays as 0
	textures: 1
	programs: [WebGLProgram]

renderer.info.gpu
	geometries: 3
	textures: 2
	programs: [WebGLProgram, WebGLProgram...]

Why not ensure that memory.geometry is also update by the background? I think we just have to use WebGLGeometries.get() right before WebGLGeometries.update() is called in WebGLBackground.

And yes, this is a bug from my point of view.

Yes, we have to do that.

I am often wondering why there seems to be more geometries, materials, and programs listed than I have in my scene.

It is because of the background, which is not part of the scene. I find this confusing.

We could add background to the scene.

Recall, the background is included in the renderer.info.render stats.

Thank you, @Mugen87.
