Description
Here's an example: https://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID/1117798
This FBX contains a mesh named 'Collider' whose `Visibility` property is 0.
3D painter from Microsoft and FBX Review do not show this mesh as in the screenshots from the website.
However, when importing the file with Assimp, Assimp node for 'Collider' does not have `Visibility` in metadata, and I cannot figure out that this node should be hidden.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with the linked FBX and inspect how Assimp's FBX importer handles the mesh's Visibility property. Trace the imported node metadata for the mesh named 'Collider'; done means the value is exposed so consumers can determine that the mesh should be hidden.
