Conversation
- Added a `isAdskUsdComponentCreatorAvailable` helper function. - Added a menu item to create a component in the layer editor in the Maya session state implementation. - Made the menu item conditional on the availability of the component creator. - Added a `hasComponentCreator` helper MEL function. - Added `createComponent` Python function to create an empty component. - Added `mayaUsdCreateComponent` and `mayaUsdCreateComponentOptions` Maya run-time commands, calling the Python function. - Changed the exception catching when importing the Python component creator module to catch all exceptions, since the CC might not be loaded for other reasons too, for example the DLL might not be found or might not match the USD version.
