[1.2.4] - 2024-09-17

Added new version of KinematicCharacterUtilities.BakeCharacter that takes an IBaker as parameter, as opposed to a Baker<T>

Removed the RotateAroundPoint method of MathUtilities, which was unused by the package.

Refactoring of "Standard Characters" sample in order to make them easier to convert to netcode.
Uniform scaling of character entities at runtime, using the LocalTransform.Scale value, is now supported. Note that since characters are physics objects, any uniform scale set in authoring will be baked to an entity with a LocalTransform.Scale of 1.
KinematicCharacterAspect query functions now take character scale as parameter.
Removed core character components from the required entity query for character interpolation system updates. This allows any entity with CharacterInterpolation and transform components to re-use the character's interpolation strategy.

Added checks to validate the presence of components on entities before accessing them in KinematicCharacterDeferredImpulsesJob
Changed fixed-step character interpolation job to take into account only entities with the enabled Simulate component (fixed interpolation issue in netcode contexts).
Fixed an incorrect calculation of character decollision vectors under certain circumstances.

The KinematicCharacterVariableUpdateGroup was removed, since there are cases where it is important for this group to be user-defined in order to have better control over when it updates. In order to replace it, add these rules to your systems (or create a new systems group that has these rules):
- [UpdateInGroup(typeof(SimulationSystemGroup))]
- [UpdateAfter(typeof(FixedStepSimulationSystemGroup))]
- [UpdateBefore(typeof(TransformSystemGroup))]

Character aspects are no longer passed by ref in standard character jobs
Removed all reliance on PhysicsBodyAuthoring and PhysicsShapeAuthoring components
DisableCharacterDynamicPairsSystem was renamed to DisableCharacterDynamicContactsSystem

Characters can now raise trigger events with trigger shapes that are on dynamic rigidbodies

Follow these steps to upgrade your existing character controllers to this new version:

In your character prefabs, make sure the PhysicsShape's collision response is set to "Collide". (previously, it was set to "Raise Trigger Events" by default)
The default implementation of your character Aspect's CanCollideWithHit should now simply do: return PhysicsUtilities.IsCollidable(hit.Material);

Added a DisableCharacterDynamicPairsSystem, which disables physics body pairs between dynamic rigidbodies and "simulated dynamic" characters. This means "simulated dynamic" characters no longer need to rely on having their collision response set to "None" or "Raise Trigger Events" in order to properly be pushed by other rigidbodies. All character collision responses should now be set to "Collide". This system's update can be disabled by destroying the DisableCharacterDynamicPairs singleton at runtime

KinematicCharacterUtilities.IsHitCollidableOrCharacter was removed. Use PhysicsUtilities.IsCollidable instead
KinematicCharacterProperties.SetCollisionDetectionActive was removed. Use KinematicCharacterUtilities.SetCollisionDetectionActive instead

Character interpolation is now ignored on disabled characters (disabled KinematicCharacterBBody component)
