735c43390c bevy_ecs/system/commands/ folder docs pass (#18639)
- Lots of nits, formatting, and rephrasing, with the goal of making
things more consistent.
- Fix outdated error handler explanation in `Commands` and
`EntityCommands` docs.
- Expand docs for system-related commands.
- Remove panic notes if the command only panics with the default error
handler.
- Update error handling notes for `try_` variants.
- Hide `prelude` import in most doctest examples, unless the example
uses something that people might not realize is in the prelude (like
`Name`).
- Remove a couple doctest examples that (in my opinion) didn't make
sense.

765e5842cd Replace ValidationOutcome with Result (#18541)
# Objective

Make it easier to short-circuit system parameter validation.  

Simplify the API surface by combining `ValidationOutcome` with
`SystemParamValidationError`.

## Solution

Replace `ValidationOutcome` with `Result<(),
SystemParamValidationError>`. Move the docs from `ValidationOutcome` to
`SystemParamValidationError`.

Add a `skipped` field to `SystemParamValidationError` to distinguish the
`Skipped` and `Invalid` variants.

Use the `?` operator to short-circuit validation in tuples of system
params.

6caa1782d6 Define system param validation on a per-system parameter basis (#18504)
# Objective

When introduced, `Single` was intended to simply be silently skipped,
allowing for graceful and efficient handling of systems during invalid
game states (such as when the player is dead).

However, this also caused missing resources to *also* be silently
skipped, leading to confusing and very hard to debug failures. In
0.15.1, this behavior was reverted to a panic, making missing resources
easier to debug, but largely making `Single` (and `Populated`)
worthless, as they would panic during expected game states.

Ultimately, the consensus is that this behavior should differ on a
per-system-param basis. However, there was no sensible way to *do* that
before this PR.

## Solution

Swap `SystemParam::validate_param` from a `bool` to:

```rust
/// The outcome of system / system param validation,
/// used by system executors to determine what to do with a system.
pub enum ValidationOutcome {
    /// All system parameters were validated successfully and the system can be run.
    Valid,
    /// At least one system parameter failed validation, and an error must be handled.
    /// By default, this will result in1 a panic. See [crate::error] for more information.
    ///
    /// This is the default behavior, and is suitable for system params that should *always* be valid,
    /// either because sensible fallback behavior exists (like [`Query`] or because
    /// failures in validation should be considered a bug in the user's logic that must be immediately addressed (like [`Res`]).
    Invalid,
    /// At least one system parameter failed validation, but the system should be skipped due to [`ValidationBehavior::Skip`].
    /// This is suitable for system params that are intended to only operate in certain application states, such as [`Single`].
    Skipped,
}
```
Then, inside of each `SystemParam` implementation, return either Valid,
Invalid or Skipped.

Currently, only `Single`, `Option<Single>` and `Populated` use the
`Skipped` behavior. Other params (like resources) retain their current
failing

## Testing

Messed around with the fallible_params example. Added a pair of tests:
one for panicking when resources are missing, and another for properly
skipping `Single` and `Populated` system params.

## To do

- [x] get https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/18454 merged
- [x] fix the todo!() in the macro-powered tuple implementation (please
help 🥺)
- [x] test
- [x] write a migration guide
- [x] update the example comments

## Migration Guide

Various system and system parameter validation methods
(`SystemParam::validate_param`, `System::validate_param` and
`System::validate_param_unsafe`) now return and accept a
`ValidationOutcome` enum, rather than a `bool`. The previous `true`
values map to `ValidationOutcome::Valid`, while `false` maps to
`ValidationOutcome::Invalid`.

However, if you wrote a custom schedule executor, you should now respect
the new `ValidationOutcome::Skipped` parameter, skipping any systems
whose validation was skipped. By contrast, `ValidationOutcome::Invalid`
systems should also be skipped, but you should call the
`default_error_handler` on them first, which by default will result in a
panic.

If you are implementing a custom `SystemParam`, you should consider
whether failing system param validation is an error or an expected
state, and choose between `Invalid` and `Skipped` accordingly. In Bevy
itself, `Single` and `Populated` now once again skip the system when
their conditions are not met. This is the 0.15.0 behavior, but stands in
contrast to the 0.15.1 behavior, where they would panic.

27d02de375 Unify and simplify command and system error handling (#18351)
# Objective

- ECS error handling is a lovely flagship feature for Bevy 0.16, all in
the name of reducing panics and encouraging better error handling
(#14275).
- Currently though, command and system error handling are completely
disjoint and use different mechanisms.
- Additionally, there's a number of distinct ways to set the
default/fallback/global error handler that have limited value. As far as
I can tell, this will be cfg flagged to toggle between dev and
production builds in 99.9% of cases, with no real value in more granular
settings or helpers.
- Fixes #17272

## Solution

- Standardize error handling on the OnceLock global error mechanisms
ironed out in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/17215
- As discussed there, there are serious performance concerns there,
especially for commands
- I also think this is a better fit for the use cases, as it's truly
global
- Move from `SystemErrorContext` to a more general purpose
`ErrorContext`, which can handle observers and commands more clearly
- Cut the superfluous setter methods on `App` and `SubApp`
- Rename the limited (and unhelpful) `fallible_systems` example to
`error_handling`, and add an example of command error handling

## Testing

Ran the `error_handling` example.

## Notes for reviewers

- Do you see a clear way to allow commands to retain &mut World access
in the per-command custom error handlers? IMO that's a key feature here
(allowing the ad-hoc creation of custom commands), but I'm not sure how
to get there without exploding complexity.
- I've removed the feature gate on the default_error_handler: contrary
to @cart's opinion in #17215 I think that virtually all apps will want
to use this. Can you think of a category of app that a) is extremely
performance sensitive b) is fine with shipping to production with the
panic error handler? If so, I can try to gather performance numbers
and/or reintroduce the feature flag. UPDATE: see benches at the end of
this message.
- ~~`OnceLock` is in `std`: @bushrat011899 what should we do here?~~
- Do you have ideas for more automated tests for this collection of
features?

## Benchmarks

I checked the impact of the feature flag introduced: benchmarks might
show regressions. This bears more investigation. I'm still skeptical
that there are users who are well-served by a fast always panicking
approach, but I'm going to re-add the feature flag here to avoid
stalling this out.

BevyError: Bevy's new catch-all error type (#18144)
## Objective

Fixes #18092

Bevy's current error type is a simple type alias for `Box<dyn Error +
Send + Sync + 'static>`. This largely works as a catch-all error, but it
is missing a critical feature: the ability to capture a backtrace at the
point that the error occurs. The best way to do this is `anyhow`-style
error handling: a new error type that takes advantage of the fact that
the `?` `From` conversion happens "inline" to capture the backtrace at
the point of the error.

## Solution

This PR adds a new `BevyError` type (replacing our old
`std::error::Error` type alias), which uses the "from conversion
backtrace capture" approach:

```rust
fn oh_no() -> Result<(), BevyError> {
    // this fails with Rust's built in ParseIntError, which
    // is converted into the catch-all BevyError type
    let number: usize = "hi".parse()?;
    println!("parsed {number}");
    Ok(())
}
```

This also updates our exported `Result` type alias to default to
`BevyError`, meaning you can write this instead:

```rust
fn oh_no() -> Result {
    let number: usize = "hi".parse()?;
    println!("parsed {number}");
    Ok(())
}
```

When a BevyError is encountered in a system, it will use Bevy's default
system error handler (which panics by default). BevyError does custom
"backtrace filtering" by default, meaning we can cut out the _massive_
amount of "rust internals", "async executor internals", and "bevy system
scheduler internals" that show up in backtraces. It also trims out the
first generally-unnecssary `From` conversion backtrace lines that make
it harder to locate the real error location. The result is a blissfully
simple backtrace by default:


![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7a5f5c9b-ea70-4176-af3b-d231da31c967)

The full backtrace can be shown by setting the `BEVY_BACKTRACE=full`
environment variable. Non-BevyError panics still use the default Rust
backtrace behavior.

One issue that prevented the truly noise-free backtrace during panics
that you see above is that Rust's default panic handler will print the
unfiltered (and largely unhelpful real-panic-point) backtrace by
default, in _addition_ to our filtered BevyError backtrace (with the
helpful backtrace origin) that we capture and print. To resolve this, I
have extended Bevy's existing PanicHandlerPlugin to wrap the default
panic handler. If we panic from the result of a BevyError, we will skip
the default "print full backtrace" panic handler. This behavior can be
enabled and disabled using the new `error_panic_hook` cargo feature in
`bevy_app` (which is enabled by default).

One downside to _not_ using `Box<dyn Error>` directly is that we can no
longer take advantage of the built-in `Into` impl for strings to errors.
To resolve this, I have added the following:

```rust
// Before
Err("some error")?

// After
Err(BevyError::message("some error"))?
```

We can discuss adding shorthand methods or macros for this (similar to
anyhow's `anyhow!("some error")` macro), but I'd prefer to discuss that
later.

I have also added the following extension method:

```rust
// Before
some_option.ok_or("some error")?;

// After
some_option.ok_or_message("some error")?;
```

I've also moved all of our existing error infrastructure from
`bevy_ecs::result` to `bevy_ecs::error`, as I think that is the better
home for it

## Why not anyhow (or eyre)?

The biggest reason is that `anyhow` needs to be a "generically useful
error type", whereas Bevy is a much narrower scope. By using our own
error, we can be significantly more opinionated. For example, anyhow
doesn't do the extensive (and invasive) backtrace filtering that
BevyError does because it can't operate on Bevy-specific context, and
needs to be generically useful.

Bevy also has a lot of operational context (ex: system info) that could
be useful to attach to errors. If we have control over the error type,
we can add whatever context we want to in a structured way. This could
be increasingly useful as we add more visual / interactive error
handling tools and editor integrations.

Additionally, the core approach used is simple and requires almost no
code. anyhow clocks in at ~2500 lines of code, but the impl here uses
160. We are able to boil this down to exactly what we need, and by doing
so we improve our compile times and the understandability of our code.

Deprecate insert_or_spawn function family (#18147)
# Objective

Based on #18054, this PR builds on #18035 to deprecate:

- `Commands::insert_or_spawn_batch`
- `Entities::alloc_at_without_replacement`
- `Entities::alloc_at`
- `World::insert_or_spawn_batch`
- `World::insert_or_spawn_batch_with_caller`

## Testing

Just deprecation, so no new tests. Note that as of writing #18035 is
still under testing and review.

## Open Questions

- [x] Should `entity::AllocAtWithoutReplacement` be deprecated? It is
internal and only used in `Entities::alloc_at_without_replacement`.
**EDIT:** Now deprecated.

## Migration Guide

The following functions have been deprecated:

- `Commands::insert_or_spawn_batch`
- `World::insert_or_spawn_batch`
- `World::insert_or_spawn_batch_with_caller`

These functions, when used incorrectly, can cause major performance
problems and are generally viewed as anti-patterns and foot guns. These
are planned to be removed altogether in 0.17.

Instead of these functions consider doing one of the following:

Option A) Instead of despawing entities and re-spawning them at a
particular id, insert the new `Disabled` component without despawning
the entity, and use `try_insert_batch` or `insert_batch` and remove
`Disabled` instead of re-spawning it.

Option B) Instead of giving special meaning to an entity id, simply use
`spawn_batch` and ensure entity references are valid when despawning.

Fix Component require() IDE integration (#18165)
# Objective

Component `require()` IDE integration is fully broken, as of #16575.

## Solution

This reverts us back to the previous "put the docs on Component trait"
impl. This _does_ reduce the accessibility of the required components in
rust docs, but the complete erasure of "required component IDE
experience" is not worth the price of slightly increased prominence of
requires in docs.

Additionally, Rust Analyzer has recently started including derive
attributes in suggestions, so we aren't losing that benefit of the
proc_macro attribute impl.

Update EntityCommands::trigger to check for the entity's existence (#18071)
## Objective

`EntityCommands::trigger` internally uses `Commands::trigger_targets`,
which means it gets queued using `Commands::queue` rather
`EntityCommands::queue`. This previously wouldn't have made much
difference, but now entity commands check whether the entity exists, and
that check never happens in this case.

## Solution

- Add `entity_command::trigger`, which calls the same function as before
(`World::trigger_targets_with_caller`) but through the `EntityWorldMut`
passed to entity commands.
- Change `EntityCommands::trigger` to queue the new entity command
normally.

Change Commands::get_entity to return Result and remove panic from Commands::entity (#18043)
## Objective

Alternative to #18001.

- Now that systems can handle the `?` operator, `get_entity` returning
`Result` would be more useful than `Option`.
- With `get_entity` being more flexible, combined with entity commands
now checking the entity's existence automatically, the panic in `entity`
isn't really necessary.

## Solution

- Changed `Commands::get_entity` to return `Result<EntityCommands,
EntityDoesNotExistError>`.
- Removed panic from `Commands::entity`.

Add missing unsafe to entity_command::insert_by_id and make it more configurable (#18052)
## Objective

`insert_by_id` is unsafe, but I forgot to add that to the
manually-queueable version in `entity_command`.

It also can only insert using `InsertMode::Replace`, when it could
easily be configurable by threading an `InsertMode` parameter to the
final `BundleInserter::insert` call.

## Solution

- Add `unsafe` and safety comment.
- Add `InsertMode` parameter to `entity_command::insert_by_id`,
`EntityWorldMut::insert_by_id_with_caller`, and
`EntityWorldMut::insert_dynamic_bundle`.
- Add `InsertMode` parameter to `entity_command::insert` and remove
`entity_command::insert_if_new`, for consistency with the other
manually-queued insertion commands.

Upgrade to Rust Edition 2024 (#17967)
# Objective

- Fixes #17960

## Solution

- Followed the [edition upgrade
guide](https://doc.rust-lang.org/edition-guide/editions/transitioning-an-existing-project-to-a-new-edition.html)

## Testing

- CI

---

## Summary of Changes

### Documentation Indentation

When using lists in documentation, proper indentation is now linted for.
This means subsequent lines within the same list item must start at the
same indentation level as the item.

```rust
/* Valid */
/// - Item 1
///   Run-on sentence.
/// - Item 2
struct Foo;

/* Invalid */
/// - Item 1
///     Run-on sentence.
/// - Item 2
struct Foo;
```

### Implicit `!` to `()` Conversion

`!` (the never return type, returned by `panic!`, etc.) no longer
implicitly converts to `()`. This is particularly painful for systems
with `todo!` or `panic!` statements, as they will no longer be functions
returning `()` (or `Result<()>`), making them invalid systems for
functions like `add_systems`. The ideal fix would be to accept functions
returning `!` (or rather, _not_ returning), but this is blocked on the
[stabilisation of the `!` type
itself](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.never.html), which is
not done.

The "simple" fix would be to add an explicit `-> ()` to system
signatures (e.g., `|| { todo!() }` becomes `|| -> () { todo!() }`).
However, this is _also_ banned, as there is an existing lint which (IMO,
incorrectly) marks this as an unnecessary annotation.

So, the "fix" (read: workaround) is to put these kinds of `|| -> ! { ...
}` closuers into variables and give the variable an explicit type (e.g.,
`fn()`).

```rust
// Valid
let system: fn() = || todo!("Not implemented yet!");
app.add_systems(..., system);

// Invalid
app.add_systems(..., || todo!("Not implemented yet!"));
```

### Temporary Variable Lifetimes

The order in which temporary variables are dropped has changed. The
simple fix here is _usually_ to just assign temporaries to a named
variable before use.

### `gen` is a keyword

We can no longer use the name `gen` as it is reserved for a future
generator syntax. This involved replacing uses of the name `gen` with
`r#gen` (the raw-identifier syntax).

### Formatting has changed

Use statements have had the order of imports changed, causing a
substantial +/-3,000 diff when applied. For now, I have opted-out of
this change by amending `rustfmt.toml`

```toml
style_edition = "2021"
```

This preserves the original formatting for now, reducing the size of
this PR. It would be a simple followup to update this to 2024 and run
`cargo fmt`.

### New `use<>` Opt-Out Syntax

Lifetimes are now implicitly included in RPIT types. There was a handful
of instances where it needed to be added to satisfy the borrow checker,
but there may be more cases where it _should_ be added to avoid
breakages in user code.

### `MyUnitStruct { .. }` is an invalid pattern

Previously, you could match against unit structs (and unit enum
variants) with a `{ .. }` destructuring. This is no longer valid.

### Pretty much every use of `ref` and `mut` are gone

Pattern binding has changed to the point where these terms are largely
unused now. They still serve a purpose, but it is far more niche now.

### `iter::repeat(...).take(...)` is bad

New lint recommends using the more explicit `iter::repeat_n(..., ...)`
instead.

## Migration Guide

The lifetimes of functions using return-position impl-trait (RPIT) are
likely _more_ conservative than they had been previously. If you
encounter lifetime issues with such a function, please create an issue
to investigate the addition of `+ use<...>`.

## Notes

- Check the individual commits for a clearer breakdown for what
_actually_ changed.

Encapsulate cfg(feature = "track_location") in a type. (#17602)
# Objective

Eliminate the need to write `cfg(feature = "track_location")` every time
one uses an API that may use location tracking. It's verbose, and a
little intimidating. And it requires code outside of `bevy_ecs` that
wants to use location tracking needs to either unconditionally enable
the feature, or include conditional compilation of its own. It would be
good for users to be able to log locations when they are available
without needing to add feature flags to their own crates.

Reduce the number of cases where code compiles with the `track_location`
feature enabled, but not with it disabled, or vice versa. It can be hard
to remember to test it both ways!

Remove the need to store a `None` in `HookContext` when the
`track_location` feature is disabled.

## Solution

Create an `MaybeLocation<T>` type that contains a `T` if the
`track_location` feature is enabled, and is a ZST if it is not. The
overall API is similar to `Option`, but whether the value is `Some` or
`None` is set at compile time and is the same for all values.

Default `T` to `&'static Location<'static>`, since that is the most
common case.

Remove all `cfg(feature = "track_location")` blocks outside of the
implementation of that type, and instead call methods on it.

When `track_location` is disabled, `MaybeLocation` is a ZST and all
methods are `#[inline]` and empty, so they should be entirely removed by
the compiler. But the code will still be visible to the compiler and
checked, so if it compiles with the feature disabled then it should also
compile with it enabled, and vice versa.

## Open Questions

Where should these types live? I put them in `change_detection` because
that's where the existing `MaybeLocation` types were, but we now use
these outside of change detection.

While I believe that the compiler should be able to remove all of these
calls, I have not actually tested anything. If we want to take this
approach, what testing is required to ensure it doesn't impact
performance?

## Migration Guide

Methods like `Ref::changed_by()` that return a `&'static
Location<'static>` will now be available even when the `track_location`
feature is disabled, but they will return a new `MaybeLocation` type.
`MaybeLocation` wraps a `&'static Location<'static>` when the feature is
enabled, and is a ZST when the feature is disabled.

Existing code that needs a `&Location` can call `into_option().unwrap()`
to recover it. Many trait impls are forwarded, so if you only need
`Display` then no changes will be necessary.

If that code was conditionally compiled, you may instead want to use the
methods on `MaybeLocation` to remove the need for conditional
compilation.

Code that constructs a `Ref`, `Mut`, `Res`, or `ResMut` will now need to
provide location information unconditionally. If you are creating them
from existing Bevy types, you can obtain a `MaybeLocation` from methods
like `Table::get_changed_by_slice_for()` or
`ComponentSparseSet::get_with_ticks`. Otherwise, you will need to store
a `MaybeLocation` next to your data and use methods like `as_ref()` or
`as_mut()` to obtain wrapped references.

Improved Spawn APIs and Bundle Effects (#17521)
## Objective

A major critique of Bevy at the moment is how boilerplatey it is to
compose (and read) entity hierarchies:

```rust
commands
    .spawn(Foo)
    .with_children(|p| {
        p.spawn(Bar).with_children(|p| {
            p.spawn(Baz);
        });
        p.spawn(Bar).with_children(|p| {
            p.spawn(Baz);
        });
    });
```

There is also currently no good way to statically define and return an
entity hierarchy from a function. Instead, people often do this
"internally" with a Commands function that returns nothing, making it
impossible to spawn the hierarchy in other cases (direct World spawns,
ChildSpawner, etc).

Additionally, because this style of API results in creating the
hierarchy bits _after_ the initial spawn of a bundle, it causes ECS
archetype changes (and often expensive table moves).

Because children are initialized after the fact, we also can't count
them to pre-allocate space. This means each time a child inserts itself,
it has a high chance of overflowing the currently allocated capacity in
the `RelationshipTarget` collection, causing literal worst-case
reallocations.

We can do better!

## Solution

The Bundle trait has been extended to support an optional
`BundleEffect`. This is applied directly to World immediately _after_
the Bundle has fully inserted. Note that this is
[intentionally](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/16920)
_not done via a deferred Command_, which would require repeatedly
copying each remaining subtree of the hierarchy to a new command as we
walk down the tree (_not_ good performance).

This allows us to implement the new `SpawnRelated` trait for all
`RelationshipTarget` impls, which looks like this in practice:

```rust
world.spawn((
    Foo,
    Children::spawn((
        Spawn((
            Bar,
            Children::spawn(Spawn(Baz)),
        )),
        Spawn((
            Bar,
            Children::spawn(Spawn(Baz)),
        )),
    ))
))
```

`Children::spawn` returns `SpawnRelatedBundle<Children, L:
SpawnableList>`, which is a `Bundle` that inserts `Children`
(preallocated to the size of the `SpawnableList::size_hint()`).
`Spawn<B: Bundle>(pub B)` implements `SpawnableList` with a size of 1.
`SpawnableList` is also implemented for tuples of `SpawnableList` (same
general pattern as the Bundle impl).

There are currently three built-in `SpawnableList` implementations:

```rust
world.spawn((
    Foo,
    Children::spawn((
        Spawn(Name::new("Child1")),   
        SpawnIter(["Child2", "Child3"].into_iter().map(Name::new),
        SpawnWith(|parent: &mut ChildSpawner| {
            parent.spawn(Name::new("Child4"));
            parent.spawn(Name::new("Child5"));
        })
    )),
))
```

We get the benefits of "structured init", but we have nice flexibility
where it is required!

Some readers' first instinct might be to try to remove the need for the
`Spawn` wrapper. This is impossible in the Rust type system, as a tuple
of "child Bundles to be spawned" and a "tuple of Components to be added
via a single Bundle" is ambiguous in the Rust type system. There are two
ways to resolve that ambiguity:

1. By adding support for variadics to the Rust type system (removing the
need for nested bundles). This is out of scope for this PR :)
2. Using wrapper types to resolve the ambiguity (this is what I did in
this PR).

For the single-entity spawn cases, `Children::spawn_one` does also
exist, which removes the need for the wrapper:

```rust
world.spawn((
    Foo,
    Children::spawn_one(Bar),
))
```

## This works for all Relationships

This API isn't just for `Children` / `ChildOf` relationships. It works
for any relationship type, and they can be mixed and matched!

```rust
world.spawn((
    Foo,
    Observers::spawn((
        Spawn(Observer::new(|trigger: Trigger<FuseLit>| {})),
        Spawn(Observer::new(|trigger: Trigger<Exploded>| {})),
    )),
    OwnerOf::spawn(Spawn(Bar))
    Children::spawn(Spawn(Baz))
))
```

## Macros

While `Spawn` is necessary to satisfy the type system, we _can_ remove
the need to express it via macros. The example above can be expressed
more succinctly using the new `children![X]` macro, which internally
produces `Children::spawn(Spawn(X))`:

```rust
world.spawn((
    Foo,
    children![
        (
            Bar,
            children![Baz],
        ),
        (
            Bar,
            children![Baz],
        ),
    ]
))
```

There is also a `related!` macro, which is a generic version of the
`children!` macro that supports any relationship type:

```rust
world.spawn((
    Foo,
    related!(Children[
        (
            Bar,
            related!(Children[Baz]),
        ),
        (
            Bar,
            related!(Children[Baz]),
        ),
    ])
))
```

## Returning Hierarchies from Functions

Thanks to these changes, the following pattern is now possible:

```rust
fn button(text: &str, color: Color) -> impl Bundle {
    (
        Node {
            width: Val::Px(300.),
            height: Val::Px(100.),
            ..default()
        },
        BackgroundColor(color),
        children![
            Text::new(text),
        ]
    )
}

fn ui() -> impl Bundle {
    (
        Node {
            width: Val::Percent(100.0),
            height: Val::Percent(100.0),
            ..default(),
        },
        children![
            button("hello", BLUE),
            button("world", RED),
        ]
    )
}

// spawn from a system
fn system(mut commands: Commands) {
    commands.spawn(ui());
}

// spawn directly on World
world.spawn(ui());
```

## Additional Changes and Notes

* `Bundle::from_components` has been split out into
`BundleFromComponents::from_components`, enabling us to implement
`Bundle` for types that cannot be "taken" from the ECS (such as the new
`SpawnRelatedBundle`).
* The `NoBundleEffect` trait (which implements `BundleEffect`) is
implemented for empty tuples (and tuples of empty tuples), which allows
us to constrain APIs to only accept bundles that do not have effects.
This is critical because the current batch spawn APIs cannot efficiently
apply BundleEffects in their current form (as doing so in-place could
invalidate the cached raw pointers). We could consider allocating a
buffer of the effects to be applied later, but that does have
performance implications that could offset the balance and value of the
batched APIs (and would likely require some refactors to the underlying
code). I've decided to be conservative here. We can consider relaxing
that requirement on those APIs later, but that should be done in a
followup imo.
* I've ported a few examples to illustrate real-world usage. I think in
a followup we should port all examples to the `children!` form whenever
possible (and for cases that require things like SpawnIter, use the raw
APIs).
* Some may ask "why not use the `Relationship` to spawn (ex:
`ChildOf::spawn(Foo)`) instead of the `RelationshipTarget` (ex:
`Children::spawn(Spawn(Foo))`)?". That _would_ allow us to remove the
`Spawn` wrapper. I've explicitly chosen to disallow this pattern.
`Bundle::Effect` has the ability to create _significant_ weirdness.
Things in `Bundle` position look like components. For example
`world.spawn((Foo, ChildOf::spawn(Bar)))` _looks and reads_ like Foo is
a child of Bar. `ChildOf` is in Foo's "component position" but it is not
a component on Foo. This is a huge problem. Now that `Bundle::Effect`
exists, we should be _very_ principled about keeping the "weird and
unintuitive behavior" to a minimum. Things that read like components
_should be the components they appear to be".

## Remaining Work

* The macros are currently trivially implemented using macro_rules and
are currently limited to the max tuple length. They will require a
proc_macro implementation to work around the tuple length limit.

## Next Steps

* Port the remaining examples to use `children!` where possible and raw
`Spawn` / `SpawnIter` / `SpawnWith` where the flexibility of the raw API
is required.

## Migration Guide

Existing spawn patterns will continue to work as expected.

Manual Bundle implementations now require a `BundleEffect` associated
type. Exisiting bundles would have no bundle effect, so use `()`.
Additionally `Bundle::from_components` has been moved to the new
`BundleFromComponents` trait.

```rust
// Before
unsafe impl Bundle for X {
    unsafe fn from_components<T, F>(ctx: &mut T, func: &mut F) -> Self {
    }
    /* remaining bundle impl here */
}

// After
unsafe impl Bundle for X {
    type Effect = ();
    /* remaining bundle impl here */
}

unsafe impl BundleFromComponents for X {
    unsafe fn from_components<T, F>(ctx: &mut T, func: &mut F) -> Self {
    }
}
```

Harden proc macro path resolution and add integration tests. (#17330)
This pr uses the `extern crate self as` trick to make proc macros behave
the same way inside and outside bevy.

# Objective

- Removes noise introduced by `crate as` in the whole bevy repo.
- Fixes #17004.
- Hardens proc macro path resolution.

## TODO

- [x] `BevyManifest` needs cleanup.
- [x] Cleanup remaining `crate as`.
- [x] Add proper integration tests to the ci.

## Notes

- `cargo-manifest-proc-macros` is written by me and based/inspired by
the old `BevyManifest` implementation and
[`bkchr/proc-macro-crate`](https://github.com/bkchr/proc-macro-crate).
- What do you think about the new integration test machinery I added to
the `ci`?
  More and better integration tests can be added at a later stage.
The goal of these integration tests is to simulate an actual separate
crate that uses bevy. Ideally they would lightly touch all bevy crates.

## Testing

- Needs RA test
- Needs testing from other users
- Others need to run at least `cargo run -p ci integration-test` and
verify that they work.

Improved Entity Mapping and Cloning (#17687)
Fixes #17535

Bevy's approach to handling "entity mapping" during spawning and cloning
needs some work. The addition of
[Relations](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/17398) both
[introduced a new "duplicate entities" bug when spawning scenes in the
scene system](#17535) and made the weaknesses of the current mapping
system exceedingly clear:

1. Entity mapping requires _a ton_ of boilerplate (implement or derive
VisitEntities and VisitEntitesMut, then register / reflect MapEntities).
Knowing the incantation is challenging and if you forget to do it in
part or in whole, spawning subtly breaks.
2. Entity mapping a spawned component in scenes incurs unnecessary
overhead: look up ReflectMapEntities, create a _brand new temporary
instance_ of the component using FromReflect, map the entities in that
instance, and then apply that on top of the actual component using
reflection. We can do much better.

Additionally, while our new [Entity cloning
system](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/16132) is already pretty
great, it has some areas we can make better:

* It doesn't expose semantic info about the clone (ex: ignore or "clone
empty"), meaning we can't key off of that in places where it would be
useful, such as scene spawning. Rather than duplicating this info across
contexts, I think it makes more sense to add that info to the clone
system, especially given that we'd like to use cloning code in some of
our spawning scenarios.
* EntityCloner is currently built in a way that prioritizes a single
entity clone
* EntityCloner's recursive cloning is built to be done "inside out" in a
parallel context (queue commands that each have a clone of
EntityCloner). By making EntityCloner the orchestrator of the clone we
can remove internal arcs, improve the clarity of the code, make
EntityCloner mutable again, and simplify the builder code.
* EntityCloner does not currently take into account entity mapping. This
is necessary to do true "bullet proof" cloning, would allow us to unify
the per-component scene spawning and cloning UX, and ultimately would
allow us to use EntityCloner in place of raw reflection for scenes like
`Scene(World)` (which would give us a nice performance boost: fewer
archetype moves, less reflection overhead).

## Solution

### Improved Entity Mapping

First, components now have first-class "entity visiting and mapping"
behavior:

```rust
#[derive(Component, Reflect)]
#[reflect(Component)]
struct Inventory {
    size: usize,
    #[entities]
    items: Vec<Entity>,
}
```

Any field with the `#[entities]` annotation will be viewable and
mappable when cloning and spawning scenes.

Compare that to what was required before!

```rust
#[derive(Component, Reflect, VisitEntities, VisitEntitiesMut)]
#[reflect(Component, MapEntities)]
struct Inventory {
    #[visit_entities(ignore)]
    size: usize,
    items: Vec<Entity>,
}
```

Additionally, for relationships `#[entities]` is implied, meaning this
"just works" in scenes and cloning:

```rust
#[derive(Component, Reflect)]
#[relationship(relationship_target = Children)]
#[reflect(Component)]
struct ChildOf(pub Entity);
```

Note that Component _does not_ implement `VisitEntities` directly.
Instead, it has `Component::visit_entities` and
`Component::visit_entities_mut` methods. This is for a few reasons:

1. We cannot implement `VisitEntities for C: Component` because that
would conflict with our impl of VisitEntities for anything that
implements `IntoIterator<Item=Entity>`. Preserving that impl is more
important from a UX perspective.
2. We should not implement `Component: VisitEntities` VisitEntities in
the Component derive, as that would increase the burden of manual
Component trait implementors.
3. Making VisitEntitiesMut directly callable for components would make
it easy to invalidate invariants defined by a component author. By
putting it in the `Component` impl, we can make it harder to call
naturally / unavailable to autocomplete using `fn
visit_entities_mut(this: &mut Self, ...)`.

`ReflectComponent::apply_or_insert` is now
`ReflectComponent::apply_or_insert_mapped`. By moving mapping inside
this impl, we remove the need to go through the reflection system to do
entity mapping, meaning we no longer need to create a clone of the
target component, map the entities in that component, and patch those
values on top. This will make spawning mapped entities _much_ faster
(The default `Component::visit_entities_mut` impl is an inlined empty
function, so it will incur no overhead for unmapped entities).

### The Bug Fix

To solve #17535, spawning code now skips entities with the new
`ComponentCloneBehavior::Ignore` and
`ComponentCloneBehavior::RelationshipTarget` variants (note
RelationshipTarget is a temporary "workaround" variant that allows
scenes to skip these components. This is a temporary workaround that can
be removed as these cases should _really_ be using EntityCloner logic,
which should be done in a followup PR. When that is done,
`ComponentCloneBehavior::RelationshipTarget` can be merged into the
normal `ComponentCloneBehavior::Custom`).

### Improved Cloning

* `Option<ComponentCloneHandler>` has been replaced by
`ComponentCloneBehavior`, which encodes additional intent and context
(ex: `Default`, `Ignore`, `Custom`, `RelationshipTarget` (this last one
is temporary)).
* Global per-world entity cloning configuration has been removed. This
felt overly complicated, increased our API surface, and felt too
generic. Each clone context can have different requirements (ex: what a
user wants in a specific system, what a scene spawner wants, etc). I'd
prefer to see how far context-specific EntityCloners get us first.
* EntityCloner's internals have been reworked to remove Arcs and make it
mutable.
* EntityCloner is now directly stored on EntityClonerBuilder,
simplifying the code somewhat
* EntityCloner's "bundle scratch" pattern has been moved into the new
BundleScratch type, improving its usability and making it usable in
other contexts (such as future cross-world cloning code). Currently this
is still private, but with some higher level safe APIs it could be used
externally for making dynamic bundles
* EntityCloner's recursive cloning behavior has been "externalized". It
is now responsible for orchestrating recursive clones, meaning it no
longer needs to be sharable/clone-able across threads / read-only.
* EntityCloner now does entity mapping during clones, like scenes do.
This gives behavior parity and also makes it more generically useful.
* `RelatonshipTarget::RECURSIVE_SPAWN` is now
`RelationshipTarget::LINKED_SPAWN`, and this field is used when cloning
relationship targets to determine if cloning should happen recursively.
The new `LINKED_SPAWN` term was picked to make it more generically
applicable across spawning and cloning scenarios.

## Next Steps

* I think we should adapt EntityCloner to support cross world cloning. I
think this PR helps set the stage for that by making the internals
slightly more generalized. We could have a CrossWorldEntityCloner that
reuses a lot of this infrastructure.
* Once we support cross world cloning, we should use EntityCloner to
spawn `Scene(World)` scenes. This would yield significant performance
benefits (no archetype moves, less reflection overhead).

Track callsite for observers & hooks (#15607)
# Objective

Fixes #14708

Also fixes some commands not updating tracked location.


## Solution

`ObserverTrigger` has a new `caller` field with the
`track_change_detection` feature;
hooks take an additional caller parameter (which is `Some(…)` or `None`
depending on the feature).

## Testing

See the new tests in `src/observer/mod.rs`

---

## Showcase

Observers now know from where they were triggered (if
`track_change_detection` is enabled):
```rust
world.observe(move |trigger: Trigger<OnAdd, Foo>| {
    println!("Added Foo from {}", trigger.caller());
});
```

## Migration

- hooks now take an additional `Option<&'static Location>` argument

Change World::try_despawn and World::try_insert_batch to return Result (#17376)
## Objective

Most `try` methods on `World` return a `Result`, but `try_despawn` and
`try_insert_batch` don't. Since Bevy's error handling is advancing,
these should be brought in line.

## Solution

- Added `TryDespawnError` and `TryInsertBatchError`.
- `try_despawn`, `try_insert_batch`, and `try_insert_batch_if_new` now
return their respective errors.
- Fixed slightly incorrect behavior in `try_insert_batch_with_caller`.
- The method was always meant to continue with the rest of the batch if
an entity was missing, but that only worked after the first entity; if
the first entity was missing, the method would exit early. This has been
resolved.

## Migration Guide
- `World::try_despawn` now returns a `Result` rather than a `bool`.
- `World::try_insert_batch` and `World::try_insert_batch_if_new` now
return a `Result` where they previously returned nothing.

Move Resource trait to its own file (#17469)
# Objective

`bevy_ecs`'s `system` module is something of a grab bag, and *very*
large. This is particularly true for the `system_param` module, which is
more than 2k lines long!

While it could be defensible to put `Res` and `ResMut` there (lol no
they're in change_detection.rs, obviously), it doesn't make any sense to
put the `Resource` trait there. This is confusing to navigate (and
painful to work on and review).

## Solution

- Create a root level `bevy_ecs/resource.rs` module to mirror
`bevy_ecs/component.rs`
- move the `Resource` trait to that module
- move the `Resource` derive macro to that module as well (Rust really
likes when you pun on the names of the derive macro and trait and put
them in the same path)
- fix all of the imports

## Notes to reviewers

- We could probably move more stuff into here, but I wanted to keep this
PR as small as possible given the absurd level of import changes.
- This PR is ground work for my upcoming attempts to store resource data
on components (resources-as-entities). Splitting this code out will make
the work and review a bit easier, and is the sort of overdue refactor
that's good to do as part of more meaningful work.

## Testing

cargo build works!

## Migration Guide

`bevy_ecs::system::Resource` has been moved to
`bevy_ecs::resource::Resource`.

Relationships (non-fragmenting, one-to-many) (#17398)
This adds support for one-to-many non-fragmenting relationships (with
planned paths for fragmenting and non-fragmenting many-to-many
relationships). "Non-fragmenting" means that entities with the same
relationship type, but different relationship targets, are not forced
into separate tables (which would cause "table fragmentation").

Functionally, this fills a similar niche as the current Parent/Children
system. The biggest differences are:

1. Relationships have simpler internals and significantly improved
performance and UX. Commands and specialized APIs are no longer
necessary to keep everything in sync. Just spawn entities with the
relationship components you want and everything "just works".
2. Relationships are generalized. Bevy can provide additional built in
relationships, and users can define their own.

**REQUEST TO REVIEWERS**: _please don't leave top level comments and
instead comment on specific lines of code. That way we can take
advantage of threaded discussions. Also dont leave comments simply
pointing out CI failures as I can read those just fine._

## Built on top of what we have

Relationships are implemented on top of the Bevy ECS features we already
have: components, immutability, and hooks. This makes them immediately
compatible with all of our existing (and future) APIs for querying,
spawning, removing, scenes, reflection, etc. The fewer specialized APIs
we need to build, maintain, and teach, the better.

## Why focus on one-to-many non-fragmenting first?

1. This allows us to improve Parent/Children relationships immediately,
in a way that is reasonably uncontroversial. Switching our hierarchy to
fragmenting relationships would have significant performance
implications. ~~Flecs is heavily considering a switch to non-fragmenting
relations after careful considerations of the performance tradeoffs.~~
_(Correction from @SanderMertens: Flecs is implementing non-fragmenting
storage specialized for asset hierarchies, where asset hierarchies are
many instances of small trees that have a well defined structure)_
2. Adding generalized one-to-many relationships is currently a priority
for the [Next Generation Scene / UI
effort](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/14437).
Specifically, we're interested in building reactions and observers on
top.

## The changes

This PR does the following:

1. Adds a generic one-to-many Relationship system
3. Ports the existing Parent/Children system to Relationships, which now
lives in `bevy_ecs::hierarchy`. The old `bevy_hierarchy` crate has been
removed.
4. Adds on_despawn component hooks
5. Relationships can opt-in to "despawn descendants" behavior, meaning
that the entire relationship hierarchy is despawned when
`entity.despawn()` is called. The built in Parent/Children hierarchies
enable this behavior, and `entity.despawn_recursive()` has been removed.
6. `world.spawn` now applies commands after spawning. This ensures that
relationship bookkeeping happens immediately and removes the need to
manually flush. This is in line with the equivalent behaviors recently
added to the other APIs (ex: insert).
7. Removes the ValidParentCheckPlugin (system-driven / poll based) in
favor of a `validate_parent_has_component` hook.

## Using Relationships

The `Relationship` trait looks like this:

```rust
pub trait Relationship: Component + Sized {
    type RelationshipSources: RelationshipSources<Relationship = Self>;
    fn get(&self) -> Entity;
    fn from(entity: Entity) -> Self;
}
```

A relationship is a component that:

1. Is a simple wrapper over a "target" Entity.
2. Has a corresponding `RelationshipSources` component, which is a
simple wrapper over a collection of entities. Every "target entity"
targeted by a "source entity" with a `Relationship` has a
`RelationshipSources` component, which contains every "source entity"
that targets it.

For example, the `Parent` component (as it currently exists in Bevy) is
the `Relationship` component and the entity containing the Parent is the
"source entity". The entity _inside_ the `Parent(Entity)` component is
the "target entity". And that target entity has a `Children` component
(which implements `RelationshipSources`).

In practice, the Parent/Children relationship looks like this:

```rust
#[derive(Relationship)]
#[relationship(relationship_sources = Children)]
pub struct Parent(pub Entity);

#[derive(RelationshipSources)]
#[relationship_sources(relationship = Parent)]
pub struct Children(Vec<Entity>);
```

The Relationship and RelationshipSources derives automatically implement
Component with the relevant configuration (namely, the hooks necessary
to keep everything in sync).

The most direct way to add relationships is to spawn entities with
relationship components:

```rust
let a = world.spawn_empty().id();
let b = world.spawn(Parent(a)).id();

assert_eq!(world.entity(a).get::<Children>().unwrap(), &[b]);
```

There are also convenience APIs for spawning more than one entity with
the same relationship:

```rust
world.spawn_empty().with_related::<Children>(|s| {
    s.spawn_empty();
    s.spawn_empty();
})
```

The existing `with_children` API is now a simpler wrapper over
`with_related`. This makes this change largely non-breaking for existing
spawn patterns.

```rust
world.spawn_empty().with_children(|s| {
    s.spawn_empty();
    s.spawn_empty();
})
```

There are also other relationship APIs, such as `add_related` and
`despawn_related`.

## Automatic recursive despawn via the new on_despawn hook

`RelationshipSources` can opt-in to "despawn descendants" behavior,
which will despawn all related entities in the relationship hierarchy:

```rust
#[derive(RelationshipSources)]
#[relationship_sources(relationship = Parent, despawn_descendants)]
pub struct Children(Vec<Entity>);
```

This means that `entity.despawn_recursive()` is no longer required.
Instead, just use `entity.despawn()` and the relevant related entities
will also be despawned.

To despawn an entity _without_ despawning its parent/child descendants,
you should remove the `Children` component first, which will also remove
the related `Parent` components:

```rust
entity
    .remove::<Children>()
    .despawn()
```

This builds on the on_despawn hook introduced in this PR, which is fired
when an entity is despawned (before other hooks).

## Relationships are the source of truth

`Relationship` is the _single_ source of truth component.
`RelationshipSources` is merely a reflection of what all the
`Relationship` components say. By embracing this, we are able to
significantly improve the performance of the system as a whole. We can
rely on component lifecycles to protect us against duplicates, rather
than needing to scan at runtime to ensure entities don't already exist
(which results in quadratic runtime). A single source of truth gives us
constant-time inserts. This does mean that we cannot directly spawn
populated `Children` components (or directly add or remove entities from
those components). I personally think this is a worthwhile tradeoff,
both because it makes the performance much better _and_ because it means
theres exactly one way to do things (which is a philosophy we try to
employ for Bevy APIs).

As an aside: treating both sides of the relationship as "equivalent
source of truth relations" does enable building simple and flexible
many-to-many relationships. But this introduces an _inherent_ need to
scan (or hash) to protect against duplicates.
[`evergreen_relations`](https://github.com/EvergreenNest/evergreen_relations)
has a very nice implementation of the "symmetrical many-to-many"
approach. Unfortunately I think the performance issues inherent to that
approach make it a poor choice for Bevy's default relationship system.

## Followup Work

* Discuss renaming `Parent` to `ChildOf`. I refrained from doing that in
this PR to keep the diff reasonable, but I'm personally biased toward
this change (and using that naming pattern generally for relationships).
* [Improved spawning
ergonomics](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/16920)
* Consider adding relationship observers/triggers for "relationship
targets" whenever a source is added or removed. This would replace the
current "hierarchy events" system, which is unused upstream but may have
existing users downstream. I think triggers are the better fit for this
than a buffered event queue, and would prefer not to add that back.
* Fragmenting relations: My current idea hinges on the introduction of
"value components" (aka: components whose type _and_ value determines
their ComponentId, via something like Hashing / PartialEq). By labeling
a Relationship component such as `ChildOf(Entity)` as a "value
component", `ChildOf(e1)` and `ChildOf(e2)` would be considered
"different components". This makes the transition between fragmenting
and non-fragmenting a single flag, and everything else continues to work
as expected.
* Many-to-many support
* Non-fragmenting: We can expand Relationship to be a list of entities
instead of a single entity. I have largely already written the code for
this.
* Fragmenting: With the "value component" impl mentioned above, we get
many-to-many support "for free", as it would allow inserting multiple
copies of a Relationship component with different target entities.

Fixes #3742 (If this PR is merged, I think we should open more targeted
followup issues for the work above, with a fresh tracking issue free of
the large amount of less-directed historical context)
Fixes #17301
Fixes #12235 
Fixes #15299
Fixes #15308 

## Migration Guide

* Replace `ChildBuilder` with `ChildSpawnerCommands`.
* Replace calls to `.set_parent(parent_id)` with
`.insert(Parent(parent_id))`.
* Replace calls to `.replace_children()` with `.remove::<Children>()`
followed by `.add_children()`. Note that you'll need to manually despawn
any children that are not carried over.
* Replace calls to `.despawn_recursive()` with `.despawn()`.
* Replace calls to `.despawn_descendants()` with
`.despawn_related::<Children>()`.
* If you have any calls to `.despawn()` which depend on the children
being preserved, you'll need to remove the `Children` component first.

Fix entity does not exist message on index reuse (#17264)
# Objective

With the `track_location` feature, the error message of trying to
acquire an entity that was despawned pointed to the wrong line if the
entity index has been reused.

## Showcase

```rust
use bevy_ecs::prelude::*;

fn main() {
    let mut world = World::new();
    let e = world.spawn_empty().id();
    world.despawn(e);
    world.flush();
    let _ = world.spawn_empty();
    world.entity(e);
}
```
Old message:
```
Entity 0v1 was despawned by src/main.rs:8:19
```
New message:
```
Entity 0v1 does not exist (its index has been reused)
```

Improved Command Errors (#17215)
# Objective

Rework / build on #17043 to simplify the implementation. #17043 should
be merged first, and the diff from this PR will get much nicer after it
is merged (this PR is net negative LOC).

## Solution

1. Command and EntityCommand have been vastly simplified. No more marker
components. Just one function.
2. Command and EntityCommand are now generic on the return type. This
enables result-less commands to exist, and allows us to statically
distinguish between fallible and infallible commands, which allows us to
skip the "error handling overhead" for cases that don't need it.
3. There are now only two command queue variants: `queue` and
`queue_fallible`. `queue` accepts commands with no return type.
`queue_fallible` accepts commands that return a Result (specifically,
one that returns an error that can convert to
`bevy_ecs::result::Error`).
4. I've added the concept of the "default error handler", which is used
by `queue_fallible`. This is a simple direct call to the `panic()` error
handler by default. Users that want to override this can enable the
`configurable_error_handler` cargo feature, then initialize the
GLOBAL_ERROR_HANDLER value on startup. This is behind a flag because
there might be minor overhead with `OnceLock` and I'm guessing this will
be a niche feature. We can also do perf testing with OnceLock if someone
really wants it to be used unconditionally, but I don't personally feel
the need to do that.
5. I removed the "temporary error handler" on Commands (and all code
associated with it). It added more branching, made Commands bigger /
more expensive to initialize (note that we construct it at high
frequencies / treat it like a pointer type), made the code harder to
follow, and introduced a bunch of additional functions. We instead rely
on the new default error handler used in `queue_fallible` for most
things. In the event that a custom handler is required,
`handle_error_with` can be used.
6. EntityCommand now _only_ supports functions that take
`EntityWorldMut` (and all existing entity commands have been ported).
Removing the marker component from EntityCommand hinged on this change,
but I strongly believe this is for the best anyway, as this sets the
stage for more efficient batched entity commands.
7. I added `EntityWorldMut::resource` and the other variants for more
ergonomic resource access on `EntityWorldMut` (removes the need for
entity.world_scope, which also incurs entity-lookup overhead).

## Open Questions

1. I believe we could merge `queue` and `queue_fallible` into a single
`queue` which accepts both fallible and infallible commands (via the
introduction of a `QueueCommand` trait). Is this desirable?

Add Result handling to Commands and EntityCommands (#17043)
## Objective

Fixes #2004
Fixes #3845
Fixes #7118
Fixes #10166

## Solution

- The crux of this PR is the new `Command::with_error_handling` method.
This wraps the relevant command in another command that, when applied,
will apply the original command and handle any resulting errors.
- To enable this, `Command::apply` and `EntityCommand::apply` now return
`Result`.
- `Command::with_error_handling` takes as a parameter an error handler
of the form `fn(&mut World, CommandError)`, which it passes the error
to.
- `CommandError` is an enum that can be either `NoSuchEntity(Entity)` or
`CommandFailed(Box<dyn Error>)`.

### Closures
- Closure commands can now optionally return `Result`, which will be
passed to `with_error_handling`.

### Commands
- Fallible commands can be queued with `Commands::queue_fallible` and
`Commands::queue_fallible_with`, which call `with_error_handling` before
queuing them (using `Commands::queue` will queue them without error
handling).
- `Commands::queue_fallible_with` takes an `error_handler` parameter,
which will be used by `with_error_handling` instead of a command's
default.
- The `command` submodule provides unqueued forms of built-in fallible
commands so that you can use them with `queue_fallible_with`.
- There is also an `error_handler` submodule that provides simple error
handlers for convenience.

### Entity Commands
- `EntityCommand` now automatically checks if the entity exists before
executing the command, and returns `NoSuchEntity` if it doesn't.
- Since all entity commands might need to return an error, they are
always queued with error handling.
- `EntityCommands::queue_with` takes an `error_handler` parameter, which
will be used by `with_error_handling` instead of a command's default.
- The `entity_command` submodule provides unqueued forms of built-in
entity commands so that you can use them with `queue_with`.

### Defaults
- In the future, commands should all fail according to the global error
handling setting. That doesn't exist yet though.
- For this PR, commands all fail the way they do on `main`.
- Both now and in the future, the defaults can be overridden by
`Commands::override_error_handler` (or equivalent methods on
`EntityCommands` and `EntityEntryCommands`).
- `override_error_handler` takes an error handler (`fn(&mut World,
CommandError)`) and passes it to every subsequent command queued with
`Commands::queue_fallible` or `EntityCommands::queue`.
- The `_with` variants of the queue methods will still provide an error
handler directly to the command.
- An override can be reset with `reset_error_handler`.

## Future Work

- After a universal error handling mode is added, we can change all
commands to fail that way by default.
- Once we have all commands failing the same way (which would require
either the full removal of `try` variants or just making them useless
while they're deprecated), `queue_fallible_with_default` could be
removed, since its only purpose is to enable commands having different
defaults.

Remove Implicit std Prelude from no_std Crates (#17086)
# Background

In `no_std` compatible crates, there is often an `std` feature which
will allow access to the standard library. Currently, with the `std`
feature _enabled_, the
[`std::prelude`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/prelude/index.html) is
implicitly imported in all modules. With the feature _disabled_, instead
the [`core::prelude`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/core/prelude/index.html)
is implicitly imported. This creates a subtle and pervasive issue where
`alloc` items _may_ be implicitly included (if `std` is enabled), or
must be explicitly included (if `std` is not enabled).

# Objective

- Make the implicit imports for `no_std` crates consistent regardless of
what features are/not enabled.

## Solution

- Replace the `cfg_attr` "double negative" `no_std` attribute with
conditional compilation to _include_ `std` as an external crate.
```rust
// Before
#![cfg_attr(not(feature = "std"), no_std)]

// After
#![no_std]

#[cfg(feature = "std")]
extern crate std;
```
- Fix imports that are currently broken but are only now visible with
the above fix.

## Testing

- CI

## Notes

I had previously used the "double negative" version of `no_std` based on
general consensus that it was "cleaner" within the Rust embedded
community. However, this implicit prelude issue likely was considered
when forming this consensus. I believe the reason why is the items most
affected by this issue are provided by the `alloc` crate, which is
rarely used within embedded but extensively used within Bevy.

Refactor hierarchy-related commands to remove structs (#17029)
## Objective

Continuation of #16999.

This PR handles the following:
- Many hierarchy-related commands are wrappers around `World` and
`EntityWorldMut` methods and can be moved to closures:
  - `AddChild`
  - `InsertChildren`
  - `AddChildren`
  - `RemoveChildren`
  - `ClearChildren`
  - `ReplaceChildren`
  - `RemoveParent`
  - `DespawnRecursive`
  - `DespawnChildrenRecursive`
  - `AddChildInPlace`
  - `RemoveParentInPlace`
- `SendEvent` is a wrapper around `World` methods and can be moved to a
closure (and its file deleted).

## Migration Guide

If you were queuing the structs of hierarchy-related commands or
`SendEvent` directly, you will need to change them to the methods
implemented on `EntityCommands` (or `Commands` for `SendEvent`):

| Struct | Method |

|--------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `commands.queue(AddChild { child, parent });` |
`commands.entity(parent).add_child(child);` OR
`commands.entity(child).set_parent(parent);` |
| `commands.queue(AddChildren { children, parent });` |
`commands.entity(parent).add_children(children);` |
| `commands.queue(InsertChildren { children, parent });` |
`commands.entity(parent).insert_children(children);` |
| `commands.queue(RemoveChildren { children, parent });` |
`commands.entity(parent).remove_children(children);` |
| `commands.queue(ReplaceChildren { children, parent });` |
`commands.entity(parent).replace_children(children);` |
| `commands.queue(ClearChildren { parent });` |
`commands.entity(parent).clear_children();` |
| `commands.queue(RemoveParent { child });` |
`commands.entity(child).remove_parent()` |
| `commands.queue(DespawnRecursive { entity, warn: true });` |
`commands.entity(entity).despawn_recursive();` |
| `commands.queue(DespawnRecursive { entity, warn: false });` |
`commands.entity(entity).try_despawn_recursive();` |
| `commands.queue(DespawnChildrenRecursive { entity, warn: true });` |
`commands.entity(entity).despawn_descendants();` |
| `commands.queue(DespawnChildrenRecursive { entity, warn: false});` |
`commands.entity(entity).try_despawn_descendants();` |
| `commands.queue(SendEvent { event });` | `commands.send_event(event);`

Move some structs that impl Command to methods on World and EntityWorldMut (#16999)
## Objective

Commands were previously limited to structs that implemented `Command`.
Now there are blanket implementations for closures, which (in my
opinion) are generally preferable.

Internal commands within `commands/mod.rs` have been switched from
structs to closures, but there are a number of internal commands in
other areas of the engine that still use structs. I'd like to tidy these
up by moving their implementations to methods on
`World`/`EntityWorldMut` and changing `Commands` to use those methods
through closures.

This PR handles the following:
- `TriggerEvent` and `EmitDynamicTrigger` double as commands and helper
structs, and can just be moved to `World` methods.
- Four structs that enabled insertion/removal of components via
reflection. This functionality shouldn't be exclusive to commands, and
can be added to `EntityWorldMut`.
- Five structs that mostly just wrapped `World` methods, and can be
replaced with closures that do the same thing.

## Solution

- __Observer Triggers__ (`observer/trigger_event.rs` and
`observer/mod.rs`)
- Moved the internals of `TriggerEvent` to the `World` methods that used
it.
  - Replaced `EmitDynamicTrigger` with two `World` methods:
    - `trigger_targets_dynamic`
    - `trigger_targets_dynamic_ref`
- `TriggerTargets` was now the only thing in
`observer/trigger_event.rs`, so it's been moved to `observer/mod.rs` and
`trigger_event.rs` was deleted.
- __Reflection Insert/Remove__ (`reflect/entity_commands.rs`)
- Replaced the following `Command` impls with equivalent methods on
`EntityWorldMut`:
    - `InsertReflect` -> `insert_reflect`
    - `InsertReflectWithRegistry` -> `insert_reflect_with_registry`
    - `RemoveReflect` -> `remove_reflect`
    - `RemoveReflectWithRegistry` -> `remove_reflect_with_registry`
- __System Registration__ (`system/system_registry.rs`)
- The following `Command` impls just wrapped a `World` method and have
been replaced with closures:
    - `RunSystemWith`
    - `UnregisterSystem`
    - `RunSystemCachedWith`
    - `UnregisterSystemCached`
- `RegisterSystem` called a helper function that basically worked as a
constructor for `RegisteredSystem` and made sure it came with a marker
component. That helper function has been replaced with
`RegisteredSystem::new` and a `#[require]`.

## Possible Addition

The extension trait that adds the reflection commands,
`ReflectCommandExt`, isn't strictly necessary; we could just `impl
EntityCommands`. We could even move them to the same files as the main
impls and put it behind a `#[cfg]`.

The PR that added it [had a similar
conversation](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8895#discussion_r1234713671)
and decided to stick with the trait, but we could revisit it here if so
desired.

Add no_std support to bevy_ecs (#16758)
# Objective

- Contributes to #15460

## Solution

- Added the following features:
  - `std` (default)
  - `async_executor` (default)
  - `edge_executor`
  - `critical-section`
  - `portable-atomic`
- Gated `tracing` in `bevy_utils` to allow compilation on certain
platforms
- Switched from `tracing` to `log` for simple message logging within
`bevy_ecs`. Note that `tracing` supports capturing from `log` so this
should be an uncontroversial change.
- Fixed imports and added feature gates as required 
- Made `bevy_tasks` optional within `bevy_ecs`. Turns out it's only
needed for parallel operations which are already gated behind
`multi_threaded` anyway.

## Testing

- Added to `compile-check-no-std` CI command
- `cargo check -p bevy_ecs --no-default-features --features
edge_executor,critical-section,portable-atomic --target
thumbv6m-none-eabi`
- `cargo check -p bevy_ecs --no-default-features --features
edge_executor,critical-section`
- `cargo check -p bevy_ecs --no-default-features`

## Draft Release Notes

Bevy's core ECS now supports `no_std` platforms.

In prior versions of Bevy, it was not possible to work with embedded or
niche platforms due to our reliance on the standard library, `std`. This
has blocked a number of novel use-cases for Bevy, such as an embedded
database for IoT devices, or for creating games on retro consoles.

With this release, `bevy_ecs` no longer requires `std`. To use Bevy on a
`no_std` platform, you must disable default features and enable the new
`edge_executor` and `critical-section` features. You may also need to
enable `portable-atomic` and `critical-section` if your platform does
not natively support all atomic types and operations used by Bevy.

```toml
[dependencies]
bevy_ecs = { version = "0.16", default-features = false, features = [
  # Required for platforms with incomplete atomics (e.g., Raspberry Pi Pico)
  "portable-atomic",
  "critical-section",

  # Optional
  "bevy_reflect",
  "serialize",
  "bevy_debug_stepping",
  "edge_executor"
] }
```

Currently, this has been tested on bare-metal x86 and the Raspberry Pi
Pico. If you have trouble using `bevy_ecs` on a particular platform,
please reach out either through a GitHub issue or in the `no_std`
working group on the Bevy Discord server.

Keep an eye out for future `no_std` updates as we continue to improve
the parity between `std` and `no_std`. We look forward to seeing what
kinds of applications are now possible with Bevy!

## Notes

- Creating PR in draft to ensure CI is passing before requesting
reviews.
- This implementation has no support for multithreading in `no_std`,
especially due to `NonSend` being unsound if allowed in multithreading.
The reason is we cannot check the `ThreadId` in `no_std`, so we have no
mechanism to at-runtime determine if access is sound.

track_change_detection: Also track spawns/despawns (#16047)
# Objective

Expand `track_change_detection` feature to also track entity spawns and
despawns. Use this to create better error messages.

# Solution

Adds `Entities::entity_get_spawned_or_despawned_by` as well as `{all
entity reference types}::spawned_by`.

This also removes the deprecated `get_many_entities_mut` & co (and
therefore can't land in 0.15) because we don't yet have no Polonius.

## Testing

Added a test that checks that the locations get updated and these
updates are ordered correctly vs hooks & observers.

---

## Showcase

Access location:
```rust
let mut world = World::new();
let entity = world.spawn_empty().id();
println!("spawned by: {}", world.entity(entity).spawned_by());
```
```
spawned by: src/main.rs:5:24
```
Error message (with `track_change_detection`):
```rust
world.despawn(entity);
world.entity(entity);
```
```
thread 'main' panicked at src/main.rs:11:11:
Entity 0v1#4294967296 was despawned by src/main.rs:10:11
```
and without:
```
thread 'main' panicked at src/main.rs:11:11:
Entity 0v1#4294967296 does not exist (enable `track_change_detection` feature for more details)
```
Similar error messages now also exists for `Query::get`,
`World::entity_mut`, `EntityCommands` creation and everything that
causes `B0003`, e.g.
```
error[B0003]: Could not insert a bundle (of type `MaterialMeshBundle<StandardMaterial>`) for entity Entity { index: 7, generation: 1 }, which was despawned by src/main.rs:10:11. See: https://bevyengine.org/learn/errors/#b0003

Extend cloning functionality and add convenience methods to EntityWorldMut and EntityCommands (#16826)
## Objective

Thanks to @eugineerd's work on entity cloning (#16132), we now have a
robust way to copy components between entities. We can extend this to
implement some useful functionality that would have been more
complicated before.

Closes #15350.

## Solution

`EntityCloneBuilder` now automatically includes required components
alongside any component added/removed from the component filter.

Added the following methods to `EntityCloneBuilder`:
- `move_components`
- `without_required_components`

Added the following methods to `EntityWorldMut` and `EntityCommands`:
- `clone_with`
- `clone_components`
- `move_components`

Also added `clone_and_spawn` and `clone_and_spawn_with` to
`EntityWorldMut` (`EntityCommands` already had them).

## Showcase

```
assert_eq!(world.entity(entity_a).get::<B>(), Some(&B));
assert_eq!(world.entity(entity_b).get::<B>(), None);
world.entity_mut(entity_a).clone_components::<B>(entity_b);
assert_eq!(world.entity(entity_a).get::<B>(), Some(&B));
assert_eq!(world.entity(entity_b).get::<B>(), Some(&B));

assert_eq!(world.entity(entity_a).get::<C>(), Some(&C(5)));
assert_eq!(world.entity(entity_b).get::<C>(), None);
world.entity_mut(entity_a).move_components::<C>(entity_b);
assert_eq!(world.entity(entity_a).get::<C>(), None);
assert_eq!(world.entity(entity_b).get::<C>(), Some(&C(5)));

one shot system cleanup (#16516)
# Objective

- Fixes #16497
- This is my first PR, so I'm still learning to contribute to the
project

## Solution

- Added struct `UnregisterSystemCached` and function
`unregister_system_cached`
- renamed `World::run_system_with_input` to `run_system_with`
- reordered input parameters for `World::run_system_once_with`

## Testing

- Added a crude test which registers a system via
`World::register_system_cached`, and removes it via
`Command::unregister_system_cached`.

## Migration Guide

- Change all occurrences of `World::run_system_with_input` to
`World::run_system_with`.
- swap the order of input parameters for `World::run_system_once_with`
such that the system comes before the input.

Rename EntityCommands::clone to clone_and_spawn (#16696)
## Objective

Follow-up to #16672.

`EntityCommands::clone` looks the same as the `Clone` trait, which could
be confusing. A discord discussion has made me realize that's probably a
bigger problem than I thought. Oops :P

## Solution

Renamed `EntityCommands::clone` to `EntityCommands::clone_and_spawn`,
renamed `EntityCommands::clone_with` to
`EntityCommands::clone_and_spawn_with`. Also added some docs explaining
the commands' relation to `Clone` (components need to implement it (or
`Reflect`)).

## Showcase

```
// Create a new entity and keep its EntityCommands
let mut entity = commands.spawn((ComponentA(10), ComponentB(20)));

// Create a clone of the first entity
let mut entity_clone = entity.clone_and_spawn();
```

## The Bikeshed

- `clone_and_spawn` (Alice's suggestion)
- `spawn_clone` (benfrankel's suggestion)
- `spawn_cloned` (rparrett's suggestion)

Move clone_entity commands to EntityCommands (#16672)
## Objective

I was resolving a conflict between #16132 and my PR #15929 and thought
the `clone_entity` commands made more sense in `EntityCommands`.

## Solution

Moved `Commands::clone_entity` to `EntityCommands::clone`, moved
`Commands::clone_entity_with` to `EntityCommands::clone_with`.

## Testing

Ran the two tests that used the old methods.

## Showcase

```
// Create a new entity and keep its EntityCommands.
let mut entity = commands.spawn((ComponentA(10), ComponentB(20)));

// Create a clone of the first entity
let mut entity_clone = entity.clone();
```

The only potential downside is that the method name is now the same as
the one from the `Clone` trait. `EntityCommands` doesn't implement
`Clone` though, so there's no actual conflict.

Maybe I'm biased because this'll work better with my PR, but I think the
UX is nicer regardless.

Turn apply_deferred into a ZST System (#16642)
# Objective

- Required by #16622 due to differing implementations of `System` by
`FunctionSystem` and `ExclusiveFunctionSystem`.
- Optimize the memory usage of instances of `apply_deferred` in system
schedules.

## Solution

By changing `apply_deferred` from being an ordinary system that ends up
as an `ExclusiveFunctionSystem`, and instead into a ZST struct that
implements `System` manually, we save ~320 bytes per instance of
`apply_deferred` in any schedule.

## Testing

- All current tests pass.

---

## Migration Guide

- If you were previously calling the special `apply_deferred` system via
`apply_deferred(world)`, don't.

Add Immutable Component Support (#16372)
# Objective

- Fixes #16208

## Solution

- Added an associated type to `Component`, `Mutability`, which flags
whether a component is mutable, or immutable. If `Mutability= Mutable`,
the component is mutable. If `Mutability= Immutable`, the component is
immutable.
- Updated `derive_component` to default to mutable unless an
`#[component(immutable)]` attribute is added.
- Updated `ReflectComponent` to check if a component is mutable and, if
not, panic when attempting to mutate.

## Testing

- CI
- `immutable_components` example.

---

## Showcase

Users can now mark a component as `#[component(immutable)]` to prevent
safe mutation of a component while it is attached to an entity:

```rust
#[derive(Component)]
#[component(immutable)]
struct Foo {
    // ...
}
```

This prevents creating an exclusive reference to the component while it
is attached to an entity. This is particularly powerful when combined
with component hooks, as you can now fully track a component's value,
ensuring whatever invariants you desire are upheld. Before this would be
done my making a component private, and manually creating a `QueryData`
implementation which only permitted read access.

<details>
  <summary>Using immutable components as an index</summary>
  
```rust
/// This is an example of a component like [`Name`](bevy::prelude::Name), but immutable.
#[derive(Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq, PartialOrd, Ord, Hash, Component)]
#[component(
    immutable,
    on_insert = on_insert_name,
    on_replace = on_replace_name,
)]
pub struct Name(pub &'static str);

/// This index allows for O(1) lookups of an [`Entity`] by its [`Name`].
#[derive(Resource, Default)]
struct NameIndex {
    name_to_entity: HashMap<Name, Entity>,
}

impl NameIndex {
    fn get_entity(&self, name: &'static str) -> Option<Entity> {
        self.name_to_entity.get(&Name(name)).copied()
    }
}

fn on_insert_name(mut world: DeferredWorld<'_>, entity: Entity, _component: ComponentId) {
    let Some(&name) = world.entity(entity).get::<Name>() else {
        unreachable!()
    };
    let Some(mut index) = world.get_resource_mut::<NameIndex>() else {
        return;
    };

    index.name_to_entity.insert(name, entity);
}

fn on_replace_name(mut world: DeferredWorld<'_>, entity: Entity, _component: ComponentId) {
    let Some(&name) = world.entity(entity).get::<Name>() else {
        unreachable!()
    };
    let Some(mut index) = world.get_resource_mut::<NameIndex>() else {
        return;
    };

    index.name_to_entity.remove(&name);
}

// Setup our name index
world.init_resource::<NameIndex>();

// Spawn some entities!
let alyssa = world.spawn(Name("Alyssa")).id();
let javier = world.spawn(Name("Javier")).id();

// Check our index
let index = world.resource::<NameIndex>();

assert_eq!(index.get_entity("Alyssa"), Some(alyssa));
assert_eq!(index.get_entity("Javier"), Some(javier));

// Changing the name of an entity is also fully capture by our index
world.entity_mut(javier).insert(Name("Steven"));

// Javier changed their name to Steven
let steven = javier;

// Check our index
let index = world.resource::<NameIndex>();

assert_eq!(index.get_entity("Javier"), None);
assert_eq!(index.get_entity("Steven"), Some(steven));
```
  
</details>

Additionally, users can use `Component<Mutability = ...>` in trait
bounds to enforce that a component _is_ mutable or _is_ immutable. When
using `Component` as a trait bound without specifying `Mutability`, any
component is applicable. However, methods which only work on mutable or
immutable components are unavailable, since the compiler must be
pessimistic about the type.

## Migration Guide

- When implementing `Component` manually, you must now provide a type
for `Mutability`. The type `Mutable` provides equivalent behaviour to
earlier versions of `Component`:
```rust
impl Component for Foo {
    type Mutability = Mutable;
    // ...
}
```
- When working with generic components, you may need to specify that
your generic parameter implements `Component<Mutability = Mutable>`
rather than `Component` if you require mutable access to said component.
- The entity entry API has had to have some changes made to minimise
friction when working with immutable components. Methods which
previously returned a `Mut<T>` will now typically return an
`OccupiedEntry<T>` instead, requiring you to add an `into_mut()` to get
the `Mut<T>` item again.

## Draft Release Notes

Components can now be made immutable while stored within the ECS.

Components are the fundamental unit of data within an ECS, and Bevy
provides a number of ways to work with them that align with Rust's rules
around ownership and borrowing. One part of this is hooks, which allow
for defining custom behavior at key points in a component's lifecycle,
such as addition and removal. However, there is currently no way to
respond to _mutation_ of a component using hooks. The reasons for this
are quite technical, but to summarize, their addition poses a
significant challenge to Bevy's core promises around performance.
Without mutation hooks, it's relatively trivial to modify a component in
such a way that breaks invariants it intends to uphold. For example, you
can use `core::mem::swap` to swap the components of two entities,
bypassing the insertion and removal hooks.

This means the only way to react to this modification is via change
detection in a system, which then begs the question of what happens
_between_ that alteration and the next run of that system?
Alternatively, you could make your component private to prevent
mutation, but now you need to provide commands and a custom `QueryData`
implementation to allow users to interact with your component at all.

Immutable components solve this problem by preventing the creation of an
exclusive reference to the component entirely. Without an exclusive
reference, the only way to modify an immutable component is via removal
or replacement, which is fully captured by component hooks. To make a
component immutable, simply add `#[component(immutable)]`:

```rust
#[derive(Component)]
#[component(immutable)]
struct Foo {
    // ...
}
```

When implementing `Component` manually, there is an associated type
`Mutability` which controls this behavior:

```rust
impl Component for Foo {
    type Mutability = Mutable;
    // ...
}
```

Note that this means when working with generic components, you may need
to specify that a component is mutable to gain access to certain
methods:

```rust
// Before
fn bar<C: Component>() {
    // ...
}

// After
fn bar<C: Component<Mutability = Mutable>>() {
    // ...
}
```

With this new tool, creating index components, or caching data on an
entity should be more user friendly, allowing libraries to provide APIs
relying on components and hooks to uphold their invariants.

## Notes

- ~~I've done my best to implement this feature, but I'm not happy with
how reflection has turned out. If any reflection SMEs know a way to
improve this situation I'd greatly appreciate it.~~ There is an
outstanding issue around the fallibility of mutable methods on
`ReflectComponent`, but the DX is largely unchanged from `main` now.
- I've attempted to prevent all safe mutable access to a component that
does not implement `Component<Mutability = Mutable>`, but there may
still be some methods I have missed. Please indicate so and I will
address them, as they are bugs.
- Unsafe is an escape hatch I am _not_ attempting to prevent. Whatever
you do with unsafe is between you and your compiler.
- I am marking this PR as ready, but I suspect it will undergo fairly
major revisions based on SME feedback.
- I've marked this PR as _Uncontroversial_ based on the feature, not the
implementation.

Move required components doc to type doc (#16575)
# Objective

Make documentation of a component's required components more visible by
moving it to the type's docs

## Solution

Change `#[require]` from a derive macro helper to an attribute macro.

Disadvantages:
- this silences any unused code warnings on the component, as it is used
by the macro!
- need to import `require` if not using the ecs prelude (I have not
included this in the migration guilde as Rust tooling already suggests
the fix)

Entity cloning (#16132)
## Objective

Fixes #1515 

This PR implements a flexible entity cloning system. The primary use
case for it is to clone dynamically-generated entities.

Example:
```rs
#[derive(Component, Clone)]
pub struct Projectile;

#[derive(Component, Clone)]
pub struct Damage {
    value: f32,
}

fn player_input(
    mut commands: Commands,
    projectiles: Query<Entity, With<Projectile>>,
    input: Res<ButtonInput<KeyCode>>,
) {
    // Fire a projectile
    if input.just_pressed(KeyCode::KeyF) {
        commands.spawn((Projectile, Damage { value: 10.0 }));
    }

    // Triplicate all active projectiles
    if input.just_pressed(KeyCode::KeyT) {
        for projectile in projectiles.iter() {
            // To triplicate a projectile we need to create 2 more clones
            for _ in 0..2{
                commands.clone_entity(projectile)
            }
        }
    }
}
```

## Solution

### Commands
Add a `clone_entity` command to create a clone of an entity with all
components that can be cloned. Components that can't be cloned will be
ignored.
```rs
commands.clone_entity(entity)
```
If there is a need to configure the cloning process (like set to clone
recursively), there is a second command:
```rs
commands.clone_entity_with(entity, |builder| {
    builder.recursive(true)
});
```
Both of these commands return `EntityCommands` of the cloned entity, so
the copy can be modified afterwards.

### Builder
All these commands use `EntityCloneBuilder` internally. If there is a
need to clone an entity using `World` instead, it is also possible:
```rs
let entity = world.spawn(Component).id();
let entity_clone = world.spawn_empty().id();
EntityCloneBuilder::new(&mut world).clone_entity(entity, entity_clone);
```

Builder has methods to `allow` or `deny` certain components during
cloning if required and can be extended by implementing traits on it.
This PR includes two `EntityCloneBuilder` extensions:
`CloneEntityWithObserversExt` to configure adding cloned entity to
observers of the original entity, and `CloneEntityRecursiveExt` to
configure cloning an entity recursively.

### Clone implementations
By default, all components that implement either `Clone` or `Reflect`
will be cloned (with `Clone`-based implementation preferred in case
component implements both).

This can be overriden on a per-component basis:
```rs
impl Component for SomeComponent {
    const STORAGE_TYPE: StorageType = StorageType::Table;

    fn get_component_clone_handler() -> ComponentCloneHandler {
        // Don't clone this component
        ComponentCloneHandler::Ignore
    }
}
```

### `ComponentCloneHandlers`
Clone implementation specified in `get_component_clone_handler` will get
registered in `ComponentCloneHandlers` (stored in
`bevy_ecs::component::Components`) at component registration time.

The clone handler implementation provided by a component can be
overriden after registration like so:
```rs
let component_id = world.components().component_id::<Component>().unwrap()
world.get_component_clone_handlers_mut()
     .set_component_handler(component_id, ComponentCloneHandler::Custom(component_clone_custom))
```
The default clone handler for all components that do not explicitly
define one (or don't derive `Component`) is
`component_clone_via_reflect` if `bevy_reflect` feature is enabled, and
`component_clone_ignore` (noop) otherwise.
Default handler can be overriden using
`ComponentCloneHandlers::set_default_handler`

### Handlers
Component clone handlers can be used to modify component cloning
behavior. The general signature for a handler that can be used in
`ComponentCloneHandler::Custom` is as follows:
```rs
pub fn component_clone_custom(
    world: &mut DeferredWorld,
    entity_cloner: &EntityCloner,
) {
    // implementation
}
```
The `EntityCloner` implementation (used internally by
`EntityCloneBuilder`) assumes that after calling this custom handler,
the `target` entity has the desired version of the component from the
`source` entity.

### Builder handler overrides
Besides component-defined and world-overriden handlers,
`EntityCloneBuilder` also has a way to override handlers locally. It is
mainly used to allow configuration methods like `recursive` and
`add_observers`.
```rs
// From observer clone handler implementation
impl CloneEntityWithObserversExt for EntityCloneBuilder<'_> {
    fn add_observers(&mut self, add_observers: bool) -> &mut Self {
        if add_observers {
            self.override_component_clone_handler::<ObservedBy>(ComponentCloneHandler::Custom(
                component_clone_observed_by,
            ))
        } else {
            self.remove_component_clone_handler_override::<ObservedBy>()
        }
    }
}
```

## Testing
Includes some basic functionality tests and doctests.

Performance-wise this feature is the same as calling `clone` followed by
`insert` for every entity component. There is also some inherent
overhead due to every component clone handler having to access component
data through `World`, but this can be reduced without breaking current
public API in a later PR.
