334e09892b Revert "Show prelude re-exports in docs (#6448)" (#6449)
This reverts commit 53d387f340.

# Objective

Reverts #6448. This didn't have the intended effect: we're now getting bevy::prelude shown in the docs again.

53d387f340 Show prelude re-exports in docs (#6448)
# Objective

- Right now re-exports are completely hidden in prelude docs.
- Fixes #6433

## Solution

- We could show the re-exports without inlining their documentation.

13da481bea Add methods to Query<&Children> and Query<&Parent> to iterate over descendants and ancestors (#6185)
# Objective
Add methods to `Query<&Children>` and `Query<&Parent>` to iterate over descendants and ancestors, respectively.

## Changelog

* Added extension trait for `Query` in `bevy_hierarchy`, `HierarchyQueryExt`
* Added method `iter_descendants` to `Query<&Children>` via `HierarchyQueryExt` for iterating over the descendants of an entity.
* Added method `iter_ancestors` to `Query<&Parent>` via `HierarchyQueryExt` for iterating over the ancestors of an entity.

6c5403cf47 Add warning when a hierarchy component is missing (#5590)
# Objective

A common pitfall since 0.8 is the requirement on `ComputedVisibility`
being present on all ancestors of an entity that itself has
`ComputedVisibility`, without which, the entity becomes invisible.

I myself hit the issue and got very confused, and saw a few people hit
it as well, so it makes sense to provide a hint of what to do when such
a situation is encountered.

- Fixes #5849
- Closes #5616
- Closes #2277 
- Closes #5081

## Solution

We now check that all entities with both a `Parent` and a
`ComputedVisibility` component have parents that themselves have a
`ComputedVisibility` component.

Note that the warning is only printed once.

We also add a similar warning to `GlobalTransform`.

This only emits a warning. Because sometimes it could be an intended
behavior.

Alternatives:
- Do nothing and keep repeating to newcomers how to avoid recurring
  pitfalls
- Make the transform and visibility propagation tolerant to missing
  components (#5616)
- Probably archetype invariants, though the current draft would not
  allow detecting that kind of errors

---

## Changelog

- Add a warning when encountering dubious component hierarchy structure

8eb0440f1e Hierarchy commandization (#4197)
## Objective
Implement absolute minimum viable product for the changes proposed in bevyengine/rfcs#53.

## Solution

 - Remove public mutative access to `Parent` (Children is already publicly read-only). This includes public construction methods like `Copy`, `Clone`, and `Default`.
 - Remove `PreviousParent`
 - Remove `parent_update_system`
 - Update all hierarchy related commands to immediately update both `Parent` and `Children` references.

## Remaining TODOs

 - [ ] Update documentation for both `Parent` and `Children`. Discourage using `EntityCommands::remove`
 - [x] Add `HierarchyEvent` to notify listeners of hierarchy updates. This is meant to replace listening on `PreviousParent`

## Followup

 - These changes should be best moved to the hooks mentioned in #3742.
 - Backing storage for both might be best moved to indexes mentioned in the same relations.

a304fd9a99 Split bevy_hierarchy out from bevy_transform (#4168)
# Objective

- Hierarchy tools are not just used for `Transform`: they are also used for scenes.
- In the future there's interest in using them for other features, such as visiibility inheritance.
- The fact that these tools are found in `bevy_transform` causes a great deal of user and developer confusion
- Fixes #2758.

## Solution

- Split `bevy_transform` into two!
- Make everything work again.

Note that this is a very tightly scoped PR: I *know* there are code quality and docs issues that existed in bevy_transform that I've just moved around. We should fix those in a seperate PR and try to merge this ASAP to reduce the bitrot involved in splitting an entire crate.

## Frustrations

The API around `GlobalTransform` is a mess: we have massive code and docs duplication, no link between the two types and no clear way to extend this to other forms of inheritance.

In the medium-term, I feel pretty strongly that `GlobalTransform` should be replaced by something like `Inherited<Transform>`, which lives in `bevy_hierarchy`:

- avoids code duplication
- makes the inheritance pattern extensible
- links the types at the type-level
- allows us to remove all references to inheritance from `bevy_transform`, making it more useful as a standalone crate and cleaning up its docs

## Additional context

- double-blessed by @cart in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4141#issuecomment-1063592414 and https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/2758#issuecomment-913810963
- preparation for more advanced / cleaner hierarchy tools: go read https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/53 !
- originally attempted by @finegeometer in #2789. It was a great idea, just needed more discussion!
