Bug description:
  Version bump for ogre-next to version 2.3.3, well tested by Open
  Robotics under the Gazebo simulator.

   * Package PPA:
    - https://code.launchpad.net/~j-rivero/+archive/ubuntu/ogre-next-recipe
   * Git ubunut/devel branch
     - https://code.launchpad.net/~j-rivero/ubuntu/+source/ogre-next/+git/ogre-next

  [Justification]

  ogre-next current version is 2.2.5 and was released in 2021. It does not support vulkan which probably make the release not interesting for the vast majority of current rendering developers. The bump also fixes
  LP: #1987207 and LP: #2003346.

  [Changelog]
  Upstream does not provide a Changelog file nor a NEWS file nor other
  updated mechanism that is not the GitHub release information notes.
  The list of bugfixes and features listed from 2.2.5 is simply huge:
  https://github.com/OGRECave/ogre-next/releases

  [Other Info]

  The package is not included in Debian. The version bump to 2.3.1 has been used by the Gazebo simulator team for the latest releases of Gazebo during several years and I've included the patches that has proven to be necessary, specially for vulkan support. Many of the
  Open Robotics patches has been merged upstream.

  [Dependencies]

  There is one direct dependency of ogre-next, ignition-rendering. Given
  that the version in Debian/Ubuntu is too old and probably a candidate
  to be removed, I've uploaded a new version of ignition-rendering that
  drops the support for ogre-next. It is still useful since it can use
  ogre-1.9.

   * Same package PPA with ogre-next
    - https://code.launchpad.net/~j-rivero/+archive/ubuntu/ogre-next-recipe
   * Git and code for 6.1.0+ds-0ubuntu3:
     - https://code.launchpad.net/~j-rivero/ubuntu/+source/ignition-rendering/+git/ignition-rendering/+ref/ubuntu/devel

  There is another package that deal with ogre-next in an indirect
  manner providing build helpers: ignition-cmake. I've also patched this
  package to improve the ogre-next patch:

   * Same package PPA with ogre-next 2.17.1-2ubuntu2
    - https://code.launchpad.net/~j-rivero/+archive/ubuntu/ogre-next-recipe
   * Git and code for
