Camera::_viewProjectionUpdated is not initialised in constructor. Should be initialised to false.
This can lead to redundant visibility checks if _viewProjectionUpdated happens to resolve true.
As Camera::visit() is never called, _viewProjectionUpdated is never actually updated, resulting in no visibility tests when the camera transform changes.
Fixes#16404
* Fix LNK4098 warnings

```
warning: LNK4098: defaultlib 'MSVCRT' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library

```
