 - Fixed an issue where editing the Look Dev default profile would not reflect directly in the Look Dev window.
 - Fixed an issue where manipulating the color wheels in a volume component would reset the cursor every time.
 - Fixed an issue where static sky lighting would not be updated for a new scene until it's reloaded at least once.
+- Fixed missing include guards in shadow hlsl files.
