Subject: [PATCH] fix: pass fileType to SplatLoader in
 PackedSplats.asyncInitialize

When using a URL without a recognizable file extension (e.g. blob URLs),
the fileType option passed to SplatMesh/PackedSplats was not forwarded
to the internal SplatLoader instance, causing 'Unknown splat file type'
error.
