Right now a tile points to an external tileset with a content uri. But is this how we should do it in the future? Conceptually an external tileset is at the tile granularity not the content granularity. CC #583

@lilleyse The confusion between content and tilesets was a great challenge for us in our implementation. It would be great to differentiate those better. See also CesiumGS/cesium#9356 .

With implicit tiling, there is actually no need for sub-tilesets at all with the approach I describe in #589.
