Blender 2.8 .ies / ldt. file importer

Since Blender 2.8 has a build-in ies-texture i decided to speed up the process of adding an ies light to the scene by coding a plugin.

This addon generates a Shader tree and loads the ies as a textfile.

UPDATE: The importer now supports .ldt files.

.ldt files will be converted on loading into .ies files. All symmetries are supported. Colortemperature will be taken from file.

Custom widget added for better light orientation.

use: shift+a -> ies light

Help me make this plugin better !

If you have any issue feel free to contact me.

I would like to cooperate on this addon and develop it further if the community should need it.
