 * 
 * Lists are deferred until load time so that models that use the same course may all use the same extraction
 * 
 * Note ensure that the buffers passed to LoadModelList are big enough for the requested data.
 * 
 * This class should only be ran once.

 * 
 * Usage:
 * 
 *     ModelLoader::LoadModelList bowserStatueList = {
        .course = gBowsersCastle,
        .gfxBuffer = &gBowserStatueGfx[0],

        .vtxBuffer = &gBowserStatueVtx[0],
        .vtxBufferSize = 717,
        .vtxStart = 1942,
