cutealien 6b2a0fab78 Fix tessellation numbers in createCylinderMesh, createConeMesh, createArrowMesh
Double tessellation numbers for these 3 functions in your code to get same results as in Irrlicht 1.8

I noticed in last commit those all tessellated semi-circles instead of circles. I just documented it there, but it's annoying as that bug doesn't allow odd numbered tessellation. So for example one couldn't create a triangle pyramid. 
I considered adding another parameter to describe what this number means, but... just too ugly. And it was always documented otherwise, so this could be considered a bug. Sorry if this changes the look of existing apps.

Also cleaned up code in CGeometryCreator::createCylinderMesh. No idea what the idea behind old code was. Aside from creating twice the tessellation numbers.

Note: UV's go always from 0 to 1. Which can produce wrong colors at edges with texture filtering.
Fixing UV's depends on texture-size (have to be moved half a pixel towards the inside, so 0.5f/texure_size as then the pixel center is exactly on the border)
Easier solution is usually to set TextureWrapU and TextureWrapV to ETC_CLAMP_TO_EDGE in the Material.
