Update hashbrown to 0.15 (#15801)
Updating dependencies; adopted version of #15696. (Supercedes #15696.)

Long answer: hashbrown is no longer using ahash by default, meaning that
we can't use the default-hasher methods with ahasher. So, we have to use
the longer-winded versions instead. This takes the opportunity to also
switch our default hasher as well, but without actually enabling the
default-hasher feature for hashbrown, meaning that we'll be able to
change our hasher more easily at the cost of all of these method calls
being obnoxious forever.

One large change from 0.15 is that `insert_unique_unchecked` is now
`unsafe`, and for cases where unsafe code was denied at the crate level,
I replaced it with `insert`.

## Migration Guide

`bevy_utils` has updated its version of `hashbrown` to 0.15 and now
defaults to `foldhash` instead of `ahash`. This means that if you've
hard-coded your hasher to `bevy_utils::AHasher` or separately used the
`ahash` crate in your code, you may need to switch to `foldhash` to
ensure that everything works like it does in Bevy.

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.

Add EntityRefExcept and EntityMutExcept world queries, in preparation for generalized animation. (#15207)
This commit adds two new `WorldQuery` types: `EntityRefExcept` and
`EntityMutExcept`. These types work just like `EntityRef` and
`EntityMut`, but they prevent access to a statically-specified list of
components. For example, `EntityMutExcept<(AnimationPlayer,
Handle<AnimationGraph>)>` provides mutable access to all components
except for `AnimationPlayer` and `Handle<AnimationGraph>`. These types
are useful when you need to be able to process arbitrary queries while
iterating over the results of another `EntityMut` query.

The motivating use case is *generalized animation*, which is an upcoming
feature that allows animation of any component property, not just
rotation, translation, scaling, or morph weights. To implement this, we
must change the current `AnyOf<(&mut Transform, &mut MorphWeights)>` to
instead be `EntityMutExcept<(AnimationPlayer, Handle<AnimationGraph>)>`.
It's possible to use `FilteredEntityMut` in conjunction with a
dynamically-generated system instead, but `FilteredEntityMut` isn't
optimized for the use case of a large number of allowed components
coupled with a small set of disallowed components. No amount of
optimization of `FilteredEntityMut` produced acceptable performance on
the `many_foxes` benchmark. `Query<EntityMut, Without<AnimationPlayer>>`
will not suffice either, as it's legal and idiomatic for an
`AnimationTarget` and an `AnimationPlayer` to coexist on the same
entity.

An alternate proposal was to implement a somewhat-more-general
`Except<Q, CL>` feature, where Q is a `WorldQuery` and CL is a
`ComponentList`. I wasn't able to implement that proposal in a
reasonable way, because of the fact that methods like
`EntityMut::get_mut` and `EntityRef::get` are inherent methods instead
of methods on `WorldQuery`, and therefore there was no way to delegate
methods like `get` and `get_mut` to the inner query in a generic way.
Refactoring those methods into a trait would probably be possible.
However, I didn't see a use case for a hypothetical `Except` with
arbitrary queries: `Query<Except<(&Transform, &Visibility),
Visibility>>` would just be a complicated equivalent to
`Query<&Transform>`, for instance. So, out of a desire for simplicity, I
omitted a generic `Except` mechanism.

I've tested the performance of generalized animation on `many_foxes` and
found that, with this patch, `animate_targets` has a 7.4% slowdown over
`main`. With `FilteredEntityMut` optimized to use `Arc<Access>`, the
slowdown is 75.6%, due to contention on the reference count. Without
`Arc<Access>`, the slowdown is even worse, over 2x.

## Testing

New tests have been added that check that `EntityRefExcept` and
`EntityMutExcept` allow and disallow access to components properly and
that the query engine can correctly reject conflicting queries involving
those types.

A Tracy profile of `many_foxes` with 10,000 foxes showing generalized
animation using `FilteredEntityMut` (red) vs. main (yellow) is as
follows:

Apply unused_qualifications lint (#14828)
# Objective

Fixes #14782

## Solution

Enable the lint and fix all upcoming hints (`--fix`). Also tried to
figure out the false-positive (see review comment). Maybe split this PR
up into multiple parts where only the last one enables the lint, so some
can already be merged resulting in less many files touched / less
potential for merge conflicts?

Currently, there are some cases where it might be easier to read the
code with the qualifier, so perhaps remove the import of it and adapt
its cases? In the current stage it's just a plain adoption of the
suggestions in order to have a base to discuss.

## Testing

`cargo clippy` and `cargo run -p ci` are happy.

Remove redundant imports (#12817)
# Objective

- There are several redundant imports in the tests and examples that are
not caught by CI because additional flags need to be passed.

## Solution

- Run `cargo check --workspace --tests` and `cargo check --workspace
--examples`, then fix all warnings.
- Add `test-check` to CI, which will be run in the check-compiles job.
This should catch future warnings for tests. Examples are already
checked, but I'm not yet sure why they weren't caught.

## Discussion

- Should the `--tests` and `--examples` flags be added to CI, so this is
caught in the future?
- If so, #12818 will need to be merged first. It was also a warning
raised by checking the examples, but I chose to split off into a
separate PR.

Forbid unsafe in most crates in the engine (#12684)
# Objective
Resolves #3824. `unsafe` code should be the exception, not the norm in
Rust. It's obviously needed for various use cases as it's interfacing
with platforms and essentially running the borrow checker at runtime in
the ECS, but the touted benefits of Bevy is that we are able to heavily
leverage Rust's safety, and we should be holding ourselves accountable
to that by minimizing our unsafe footprint.

## Solution
Deny `unsafe_code` workspace wide. Add explicit exceptions for the
following crates, and forbid it in almost all of the others.

* bevy_ecs - Obvious given how much unsafe is needed to achieve
performant results
* bevy_ptr - Works with raw pointers, even more low level than bevy_ecs.
 * bevy_render - due to needing to integrate with wgpu
 * bevy_window - due to needing to integrate with raw_window_handle
* bevy_utils - Several unsafe utilities used by bevy_ecs. Ideally moved
into bevy_ecs instead of made publicly usable.
 * bevy_reflect - Required for the unsafe type casting it's doing.
 * bevy_transform - for the parallel transform propagation
 * bevy_gizmos  - For the SystemParam impls it has.
* bevy_assets - To support reflection. Might not be required, not 100%
sure yet.
* bevy_mikktspace - due to being a conversion from a C library. Pending
safe rewrite.
* bevy_dynamic_plugin - Inherently unsafe due to the dynamic loading
nature.

Several uses of unsafe were rewritten, as they did not need to be using
them:

* bevy_text - a case of `Option::unchecked` could be rewritten as a
normal for loop and match instead of an iterator.
* bevy_color - the Pod/Zeroable implementations were replaceable with
bytemuck's derive macros.

Fix memory leak in dynamic ECS example (#11461)
# Objective

- Fix a memory leak in the dynamic ECS example mentioned in #11459

## Solution

- Rather than allocate the memory manually instead store a collection of
`Vec` that will be dropped after it is used.

---

I must have misinterpreted `OwningPtr`s semantics when initially writing
this example. I believe we should be able to provide better APIs here
for inserting dynamic components that don't require the user to wrangle
so much unsafety. We have no other examples using `insert_by_ids` and
our only tests show it being used for 1 or 2 values with nested calls to
`OwningPtr::make` despite the function taking an iterator. Rust's type
system is quite restrictive here but we could at least let
`OwningPtr::new` take non u8 `NonNull`.

I also agree with #11459 that we should generally be trying to simplify
and clarify this example.

Dynamic queries and builder API (#9774)
# Objective
Expand the existing `Query` API to support more dynamic use cases i.e.
scripting.

## Prior Art
 - #6390 
 - #8308 
- #10037

## Solution
- Create a `QueryBuilder` with runtime methods to define the set of
component accesses for a built query.
- Create new `WorldQueryData` implementations `FilteredEntityMut` and
`FilteredEntityRef` as variants of `EntityMut` and `EntityRef` that
provide run time checked access to the components included in a given
query.
- Add new methods to `Query` to create "query lens" with a subset of the
access of the initial query.

### Query Builder
The `QueryBuilder` API allows you to define a query at runtime. At it's
most basic use it will simply create a query with the corresponding type
signature:
```rust
let query = QueryBuilder::<Entity, With<A>>::new(&mut world).build();
// is equivalent to
let query = QueryState::<Entity, With<A>>::new(&mut world);
```
Before calling `.build()` you also have the opportunity to add
additional accesses and filters. Here is a simple example where we add
additional filter terms:
```rust
let entity_a = world.spawn((A(0), B(0))).id();
let entity_b = world.spawn((A(0), C(0))).id();

let mut query_a = QueryBuilder::<Entity>::new(&mut world)
    .with::<A>()
    .without::<C>()
    .build();
            
assert_eq!(entity_a, query_a.single(&world));
```
This alone is useful in that allows you to decide which archetypes your
query will match at runtime. However it is also very limited, consider a
case like the following:
```rust
let query_a = QueryBuilder::<&A>::new(&mut world)
// Add an additional access
    .data::<&B>()
    .build();
```
This will grant the query an additional read access to component B
however we have no way of accessing the data while iterating as the type
signature still only includes &A. For an even more concrete example of
this consider dynamic components:
```rust
let query_a = QueryBuilder::<Entity>::new(&mut world)
// Adding a filter is easy since it doesn't need be read later
    .with_id(component_id_a)
// How do I access the data of this component?
    .ref_id(component_id_b)
    .build();
```
With this in mind the `QueryBuilder` API seems somewhat incomplete by
itself, we need some way method of accessing the components dynamically.
So here's one:
### Query Transmutation
If the problem is not having the component in the type signature why not
just add it? This PR also adds transmute methods to `QueryBuilder` and
`QueryState`. Here's a simple example:
```rust
world.spawn(A(0));
world.spawn((A(1), B(0)));
let mut query = QueryBuilder::<()>::new(&mut world)
    .with::<B>()
    .transmute::<&A>()
    .build();

query.iter(&world).for_each(|a| assert_eq!(a.0, 1));
```
The `QueryState` and `QueryBuilder` transmute methods look quite similar
but are different in one respect. Transmuting a builder will always
succeed as it will just add the additional accesses needed for the new
terms if they weren't already included. Transmuting a `QueryState` will
panic in the case that the new type signature would give it access it
didn't already have, for example:
```rust
let query = QueryState::<&A, Option<&B>>::new(&mut world);
/// This is fine, the access for Option<&A> is less restrictive than &A
query.transmute::<Option<&A>>(&world);
/// Oh no, this would allow access to &B on entities that might not have it, so it panics
query.transmute::<&B>(&world);
/// This is right out
query.transmute::<&C>(&world);
```
This is quite an appealing API to also have available on `Query` however
it does pose one additional wrinkle: In order to to change the iterator
we need to create a new `QueryState` to back it. `Query` doesn't own
it's own state though, it just borrows it, so we need a place to borrow
it from. This is why `QueryLens` exists, it is a place to store the new
state so it can be borrowed when you call `.query()` leaving you with an
API like this:
```rust
fn function_that_takes_a_query(query: &Query<&A>) {
    // ...
}

fn system(query: Query<(&A, &B)>) {
    let lens = query.transmute_lens::<&A>();
    let q = lens.query();
    function_that_takes_a_query(&q);
}
```
Now you may be thinking: Hey, wait a second, you introduced the problem
with dynamic components and then described a solution that only works
for static components! Ok, you got me, I guess we need a bit more:
### Filtered Entity References
Currently the only way you can access dynamic components on entities
through a query is with either `EntityMut` or `EntityRef`, however these
can access all components and so conflict with all other accesses. This
PR introduces `FilteredEntityMut` and `FilteredEntityRef` as
alternatives that have additional runtime checking to prevent accessing
components that you shouldn't. This way you can build a query with a
`QueryBuilder` and actually access the components you asked for:
```rust
let mut query = QueryBuilder::<FilteredEntityRef>::new(&mut world)
    .ref_id(component_id_a)
    .with(component_id_b)
    .build();

let entity_ref = query.single(&world);

// Returns Some(Ptr) as we have that component and are allowed to read it
let a = entity_ref.get_by_id(component_id_a);
// Will return None even though the entity does have the component, as we are not allowed to read it
let b = entity_ref.get_by_id(component_id_b);
```
For the most part these new structs have the exact same methods as their
non-filtered equivalents.

Putting all of this together we can do some truly dynamic ECS queries,
check out the `dynamic` example to see it in action:
```
Commands:
    comp, c   Create new components
    spawn, s  Spawn entities
    query, q  Query for entities
Enter a command with no parameters for usage.

> c A, B, C, Data 4  
Component A created with id: 0
Component B created with id: 1
Component C created with id: 2
Component Data created with id: 3

> s A, B, Data 1
Entity spawned with id: 0v0

> s A, C, Data 0
Entity spawned with id: 1v0

> q &Data
0v0: Data: [1, 0, 0, 0]
1v0: Data: [0, 0, 0, 0]

> q B, &mut Data                                                                                     
0v0: Data: [2, 1, 1, 1]

> q B || C, &Data 
0v0: Data: [2, 1, 1, 1]
1v0: Data: [0, 0, 0, 0]
```
## Changelog
 - Add new `transmute_lens` methods to `Query`.
- Add new types `QueryBuilder`, `FilteredEntityMut`, `FilteredEntityRef`
and `QueryLens`
- `update_archetype_component_access` has been removed, archetype
component accesses are now determined by the accesses set in
`update_component_access`
- Added method `set_access` to `WorldQuery`, this is called before
`update_component_access` for queries that have a restricted set of
accesses, such as those built by `QueryBuilder` or `QueryLens`. This is
primarily used by the `FilteredEntity*` variants and has an empty trait
implementation.
- Added method `get_state` to `WorldQuery` as a fallible version of
`init_state` when you don't have `&mut World` access.

## Future Work
Improve performance of `FilteredEntityMut` and `FilteredEntityRef`,
currently they have to determine the accesses a query has in a given
archetype during iteration which is far from ideal, especially since we
already did the work when matching the archetype in the first place. To
avoid making more internal API changes I have left it out of this PR.
