Test examples to render UILabels in AR on iOS

UILabel testing with ARKit

1. The problem is that UILabels have trouble rendering when presented in AR. I think this is because when they are far away from the camera, or at a particular angle, then the text won't render properly, so the label doesn't get attached to its SCNPlane.

2. The hack is to convert each UILabel to a UIImage, and then render that instead.

Relevant class is ImageFromLabel
