Remarks
When you call this method on the main thread, it invokes GetBuffer<T>(Entity, bool).
(An [Entities.ForEach] function invoked with Run() executes on the main thread.) When you call this method
inside a job scheduled using [Entities.ForEach], this method gets replaced with component access methods
through BufferLookup<T>.
Exceptions

|---|---|
| ArgumentException | Thrown if T is an unsupported type. |
