Lock down access to Entities (#6740)
# Objective The soundness of the ECS `World` partially relies on the correctness of the state of `Entities` stored within it. We're currently allowing users to (unsafely) mutate it, as well as readily construct it without using a `World`. While this is not strictly unsound so long as users (including `bevy_render`) safely use the APIs, it's a fairly easy path to unsoundness without much of a guard rail. Addresses #3362 for `bevy_ecs::entity`. Incorporates the changes from #3985. ## Solution Remove `Entities`'s `Default` implementation and force access to the type to only be through a properly constructed `World`. Additional cleanup for other parts of `bevy_ecs::entity`: - `Entity::index` and `Entity::generation` are no longer `pub(crate)`, opting to force the rest of bevy_ecs to use the public interface to access these values. - `EntityMeta` is no longer `pub` and also not `pub(crate)` to attempt to cut down on updating `generation` without going through an `Entities` API. It's currently inaccessible except via the `pub(crate)` Vec on `Entities`, there was no way for an outside user to use it. - Added `Entities::set`, an unsafe `pub(crate)` API for setting the location of an Entity (parallel to `Entities::get`) that replaces the internal case where we need to set the location of an entity when it's been spawned, moved, or despawned. - `Entities::alloc_at_without_replacement` is only used in `World::get_or_spawn` within the first party crates, and I cannot find a public use of this API in any ecosystem crate that I've checked (via GitHub search). - Attempted to document the few remaining undocumented public APIs in the module. --- ## Changelog Removed: `Entities`'s `Default` implementation. Removed: `EntityMeta` Removed: `Entities::alloc_at_without_replacement` and `AllocAtWithoutReplacement`.
