Alice Cecile c0a93aa7a4 Rename system chaining to system piping (#6230)
# Objective

> System chaining is a confusing name: it implies the ability to construct non-linear graphs, and suggests a sense of system ordering that is only incidentally true. Instead, it actually works by passing data from one system to the next, much like the pipe operator.

> In the accepted [stageless RFC](https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/blob/main/rfcs/45-stageless.md), this concept is renamed to piping, and "system chaining" is used to construct groups of systems with ordering dependencies between them.

Fixes #6225.

## Changelog

System chaining has been renamed to system piping to improve clarity (and free up the name for new ordering APIs). 

## Migration Guide

The `.chain(handler_system)` method on systems is now `.pipe(handler_system)`.
The `IntoChainSystem` trait is now `IntoPipeSystem`, and the `ChainSystem` struct is now `PipeSystem`.
