Description
## Desired behavior
Allow SDFormat to load a DEM that uses the [GDAL virtual filesystem format](https://gdal.org/user/virtual_file_systems.html).
## Alternatives considered
* Skip SDF, write a custom plugin
## Implementation suggestion
```xml
false
gdal:://vsizip/vsicurl/https://terrain.ardupilot.org/SRTM1/ap_srtm1.zip/ap_srtm1.vrt
```
## Additional context
