Module entity 

Entity identifiers and their allocator.

An Entity is an index plus a generation. Despawning bumps the generation, so a handle to a dead entity never resolves to a new entity that happened to reuse the index.

A handle also carries a name, so that a message names the object it is about rather than a bare number. Debug prints it. The name is only a label: it takes no part in comparison, hashing or Entity::to_bits.

Where the name comes from is decided where the entity is made. A crate::bundle! names the entity after its own source position, crate::DynamicBundle::named and crate::ScopeMut::spawn_named name it after the string the caller passed, and crate::World::reserve_entity names it at the reservation. A builder put together at run time by hand carries no source position, so an entity spawned from one is called by whatever the caller named it.
