What problem(s) does this PR solve?
Currently to use particle animation in 3D, you need to set bilboard mode to PARTICLES_BILBOARD.
However it's not always desired. The current workaround is to convert the material to shader and remove the bilboard code.
This PR adds a new property for that, so it's easier to set up.
For compatibility reasons, the bilboard mode still enables animation.
