The three times we say "identity transform" we mean "identity matrix".

To fix this search for the first string in the source resource and replace it with the second.

FWIW in mathematics I recall these being used fairly interchangeably; i.e. transforms are matrices. But I can see how it would be clearer to make the substitution here, so I agree this is a good change to make.

Previously we used a mix of "identity matrix" and "identity transform".

Closes #3426.
