Updated sample scenes

Moved sample scenes to new location - Assets/Plugins/Zibra/Common/Samples
Added Terrain collider to desktop samples
Added Smoke & Fire to desktop samples
Changed scale to better match expected values

Changed liquid render to be opaque

Now transparent objects render correctly together with liquids
