Houdini Solaris DomeLight_1 type seems to be unsupported. #2145

Describe the bug
I noticed my domelights were not rendering on Deadline using the sick executable to render a USD file exported from Solaris. I found that the prim type of a domelight node in Solaris is DomeLight_1 rather than just DomeLight. What I found I could do is use a ConfigurePrimitive Lop node to change the prim type from DomeLight_1 to DomeLight, then sick will recognize the domelight and render it properly.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a Sphere prim and a DomeLight Lop in Solaris.
  2. Create an ArnoldRenderSettings Lop.
  3. Export a USD file.
  4. Use sick to render the USD file.
  5. The domelight will not be rendered.

Expected behavior
Arnold-usd should recognize / translate DomeLight_1 prim types to Arnold Skydomes.
