It seems that the QUALITY mode env baker is unstable on MacOS when using the ANGLE on metal backend.
This might be the same issue that affects the iOS backend.
As a quick workaround we should default the env baker to always use the FAST path and remove the AUTO path entirely.
After some tests it seems to me that the quality difference between FAST and QUALITY is not so drastic, and FAST has the added bonus of using a constant number of samples no matter how big the env map is.
So it is overall a better default IMO.
