CloseReturns a ray going from camera through a screen point.
Resulting ray is in world space, starting on the near plane of the camera and going through
position's (x,y) pixel coordinates on the screen (position.z is ignored).
Screenspace is defined in pixels. The bottom-left of the screen is (0,0); the right-top is (pixelWidth,pixelHeight).
