Subpools are for grouping components by some criterion. Any component
that has a rangeid callback will be grouped with other components that
return the same render id. Note that the ordering of components within a
group will be affected by adding a component into a group that comes
before that group (or removing a component).
Component pools can have multiple groups, added and removed dynamically,
but removing a group should (currently) be done only when empty.
There's now a main ecs.h file that includes the sub-system headers,
removing the need to explicitly include several header files, but the
sub-systems are a less cluttered.
This means that the component id used for hierarchy references must be
passed to Hierarchy_New and Hierarchy_Copy, but does all an entity to
have more than one hierarchy, which is useful for canvases (hierarchies
of views) in the 3d world (the canvas root would have a 3d hierarchy
reference and a 2d (view) hierarchy reference).
It should have always been here, but when I first created the hierarchy
and transform objects, I didn't know where things would go. Having two
chunks of code for setting an entity's parent was too already too much,
and I expect to have other hierarchy types. Doesn't fix the issues
encountered with sbar, of course.
While the libraries are probably getting a little out of hand, the
separation into its own directory is probably a good thing as an ECS
should not be tied to scenes. This should make the ECS more generally
useful.
