/**
* A PathFollower is a virtual entity that follows the Path.
* It is usually linked to a game object such as a Sprite and it will control either the
* position of that object, or its velocity if it is a physics object.
*
* Callbacks will be triggered when certain events happen as the follower moves.  These
* may be used to aid in the creation of complex behaviours for the game objects.
*
* @class Phaser.PathFollower
* @constructor
* @param {Phaser.Path} path - The Path object which this follower is created on.
* @param {Phaser.Sprite|object} follower - The game object which this follower controls. Requires public properties: `x`, `y` for position and `rotation` for angle control (if specified).
* @param {number} [speed=1] - The current speed of this follower in pixels per frame. This value is multiplied with the Path segment speed to give the final value used.
* @param {number} [angleOffset=null] - If `null` then the PathFollower won't rotate. Otherwise it will face in the paths direction plus this offset which is given in radians.
* @param {function} [callbackAtEnd] - A callback to be invoked when the follower reaches the end of a path.
* @param {number} [physicsAdjustTime=0] - If non-zero then the follower expects to control a physics object using "arcade.moveToObject" to control velocity.
