BufferAttribute.dynamic: revisited

See original GitHub issue

This discussion also applies to InterleavedBuffer.dynamic.

It seems that the dynamic property is being used for multiple purposes:

as a hint as to how frequently the data will be updated, [docs], and
as a flag, that when true, allows the updating of only a sub-rage, as specified in the updateRange property. [code].

The examples are not consistent here. Even in examples in which the entire range is being updated each frame, sometimes the dynamic property is set to true, and sometimes it is not.

This has been discussed before, and the purpose of the property was modified at that time.

What should we advise users to do in setting this property?

@Mugen87 Yay! Have a go. 😃

Rename BufferAttribute.dynamic to BufferAttribute.usage and introduce all respective WebGL constants

Actually, I would prefer to say .dynamic has been removed, and a new property .usage has been added. To say it was “renamed” would imply the behavior has not changed.
