Read metadata properties from a HEIC .dae/.3ds/.stl/.fbx format

using (Metadata metadata = new Metadata("D:\sample.dae"))
     {
         var root = metadata.GetRootPackage<DaePackage>();
    
         Console.WriteLine(root.Name);
     
         foreach (var node in root.DaePackage.Nodes)
         {
             Console.WriteLine(node.Name);
         }
     }

using (Metadata metadata = new Metadata("D:\sample.3ds"))
     {
         var root = metadata.GetRootPackage<ThreeDSPackage>();
    
         Console.WriteLine(root.Name);
     
         foreach (var node in root.ThreeDSPackage.Nodes)
         {
             Console.WriteLine(node.Name);
         }
     }

using (Metadata metadata = new Metadata("D:\sample.fbx"))
     {
         var root = metadata.GetRootPackage<FbxPackage>();
    
         Console.WriteLine(root.Name);
     
         foreach (var node in root.FbxPackage.Nodes)
         {
             Console.WriteLine(node.Name);
         }
     }

using (Metadata metadata = new Metadata("D:\sample.dae"))
     {
         var root = metadata.GetRootPackage<StlPackage>();
    
         Console.WriteLine(root.Name);
     
         foreach (var node in root.StlPackage.Nodes)
         {
