Refactor and simplify custom projections (#17063)
# Objective

- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/16556
- Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11807

## Solution

- Simplify custom projections by using a single source of truth -
`Projection`, removing all existing generic systems and types.
- Existing perspective and orthographic structs are no longer components
- I could dissolve these to simplify further, but keeping them around
was the fast way to implement this.
- Instead of generics, introduce a third variant, with a trait object.
- Do an object safety dance with an intermediate trait to allow cloning
boxed camera projections. This is a normal rust polymorphism papercut.
You can do this with a crate but a manual impl is short and sweet.

## Testing

- Added a custom projection example

---

## Showcase

- Custom projections and projection handling has been simplified.
- Projection systems are no longer generic, with the potential for many
different projection components on the same camera.
- Instead `Projection` is now the single source of truth for camera
projections, and is the only projection component.
- Custom projections are still supported, and can be constructed with
`Projection::custom()`.

## Migration Guide

- `PerspectiveProjection` and `OrthographicProjection` are no longer
components. Use `Projection` instead.
- Custom projections should no longer be inserted as a component.
Instead, simply set the custom projection as a value of `Projection`
with `Projection::custom()`.
