[PLM] Converged lightmap results are not cached

Progressive Lightmapper

-

In Progressive Lightmapper, converged lightmaps with Auto mode enabled are not written to GI cache. Therefore all the lightmaps need to be re-baked when editor is closed and re-launched instead of fetching them from GI cache. Compared to Enlighten, this is a disruptive workflow.

Steps for reproduction:
1) In a new scene, create a plane and a cube
2) Mark your GameObjects as `lightmap static`
3) Ensure that your light source is marked as `Baked` or `Mixed`
4) Ensure that Auto mode is enabled
5) Once the bake is done, save the scene and close Unity
6) Re-launch Unity
7) Observe that lightmaps are baked from scratch. Instead, intermediary results should be written to disk and fetched from cache.

    i think the cache system needs to have some kind of front end GUI, so you can see what scenes are cached, selecting and utilizing specific caches etc.
