bevy_reflect: Get owned fields (#5728)

# Objective

Sometimes it's useful to be able to retrieve all the fields of a container type so that they may be processed separately. With reflection, however, we typically only have access to references.

The only alternative is to "clone" the value using `Reflect::clone_value`. This, however, returns a Dynamic type in most cases. The solution there would be to use `FromReflect` instead, but this also has a problem in that it means we need to add `FromReflect` as an additional bound.

## Solution

Add a `drain` method to all container traits. This returns a `Vec<Box<dyn Reflect>>` (except for `Map` which returns `Vec<(Box<dyn Reflect>, Box<dyn Reflect>)>`).

This allows us to do things a lot simpler. For example, if we finished processing a struct and just need a particular value:

```rust
// === OLD === //
/// May or may not return a Dynamic*** value (even if `container` wasn't a `DynamicStruct`)
fn get_output(container: Box<dyn Struct>, output_index: usize) -> Box<dyn Reflect> {
  container.field_at(output_index).unwrap().clone_value()
}

// === NEW === //
/// Returns _exactly_ whatever was in the given struct
fn get_output(container: Box<dyn Struct>, output_index: usize) -> Box<dyn Reflect> {
  container.drain().remove(output_index).unwrap()
}
```

### Discussion

* Is `drain` the best method name? It makes sense that it "drains" all the fields and that it consumes the container in the process, but I'm open to alternatives.

---

## Changelog

* Added a `drain` method to the following traits:
  * `Struct`
  * `TupleStruct`
  * `Tuple`
  * `Array`
  * `List`
  * `Map`
  * `Enum`
