--- Filter functions.
-- A Filter is a function that selects which Entities apply to a System.
-- Filters take two parameters, the System and the Entity, and return a boolean
-- value indicating if the Entity should be processed by the System. A truthy
-- value includes the entity, while a falsey (nil or false) value excludes the
-- entity.
--
-- Filters must be added to Systems by setting the `filter` field of the System.
-- Filter's returned by tiny-ecs's Filter functions are immutable and can be
-- used by multiple Systems.

--- System functions.
-- A System is a wrapper around function callbacks for manipulating Entities.
-- Systems are implemented as tables that contain at least one method;
-- an update function that takes parameters like so:
--
--   * `function system:update(dt)`.
--
-- There are also a few other optional callbacks:
--
--   * `function system:filter(entity)` - Returns true if this System should
-- include this Entity, otherwise should return false. If this isn't specified,
-- no Entities are included in the System.
--   * `function system:onAdd(entity)` - Called when an Entity is added to the
-- System.
--   * `function system:onRemove(entity)` - Called when an Entity is removed
-- from the System.
--   * `function system:onModify(dt)` - Called when the System is modified by
-- adding or removing Entities from the System.
--   * `function system:onAddToWorld(world)` - Called when the System is added
-- to the World, before any entities are added to the system.
--   * `function system:onRemoveFromWorld(world)` - Called when the System is
-- removed from the world, after all Entities are removed from the System.
--   * `function system:preWrap(dt)` - Called on each system before update is
-- called on any system.
--   * `function system:postWrap(dt)` - Called on each system in reverse order
-- after update is called on each system. The idea behind `preWrap` and
-- `postWrap` is to allow for systems that modify the behavior of other systems.
-- Say there is a DrawingSystem, which draws sprites to the screen, and a
-- PostProcessingSystem, that adds some blur and bloom effects. In the preWrap
-- method of the PostProcessingSystem, the System could set the drawing target
-- for the DrawingSystem to a special buffer instead the screen. In the postWrap
-- method, the PostProcessingSystem could then modify the buffer and render it
-- to the screen. In this setup, the PostProcessingSystem would be added to the
-- World after the drawingSystem (A similar but less flexible behavior could
-- be accomplished with a single custom update function in the DrawingSystem).
--
-- For Filters, it is convenient to use `tiny.requireAll` or `tiny.requireAny`,
-- but one can write their own filters as well. Set the Filter of a System like
-- so:
--    system.filter = tiny.requireAll("a", "b", "c")
-- or
--    function system:filter(entity)
--        return entity.myRequiredComponentName ~= nil
--    end
--
-- All Systems also have a few important fields that are initialized when the
-- system is added to the World. A few are important, and few should be less
-- commonly used.
--
--   * The `world` field points to the World that the System belongs to. Useful
-- for adding and removing Entities from the world dynamically via the System.
--   * The `active` flag is whether or not the System is updated automatically.
-- Inactive Systems should be updated manually or not at all via
-- `system:update(dt)`. Defaults to true.
--   * The `entities` field is an ordered list of Entities in the System. This
-- list can be used to quickly iterate through all Entities in a System.
--   * The `interval` field is an optional field that makes Systems update at
-- certain intervals using buffered time, regardless of World update frequency.
-- For example, to make a System update once a second, set the System's interval
-- to 1.
--   * The `index` field is the System's index in the World. Lower indexed
-- Systems are processed before higher indices. The `index` is a read only
-- field; to set the `index`, use `tiny.setSystemIndex(world, system)`.
--   * The `indices` field is a table of Entity keys to their indices in the
-- `entities` list. Most Systems can ignore this.
--   * The `modified` flag is an indicator if the System has been modified in
-- the last update. If so, the `onModify` callback will be called on the System
-- in the next update, if it has one. This is usually managed by tiny-ecs, so
-- users should mostly ignore this, too.
--
-- There is another option to (hopefully) increase performance in systems that
-- have items added to or removed from them often, and have lots of entities in
-- them.  Setting the `nocache` field of the system might improve performance.
-- It is still experimental. There are some restriction to systems without
-- caching, however.
--
--   * There is no `entities` table.
--   * Callbacks such onAdd, onRemove, and onModify will never be called
--   * Noncached systems cannot be sorted (There is no entities list to sort).
