Adds Entity.sensors() to group the sensor methods
- The attribute/sensor methods are all in Entity.sensors().
- Deprecates the previous things in Entity.* and EntityLocal.*,
except for getAttribute(AttributeSensor) which is left as a convenience.
- In EntityInternal.sensors(), it returns SensorSupportInternal
which has more methods on it.
There are three big motivations for this:
- Consistency with entity.config()
- Simplification of the Entity class (which has way too many methods)
by grouping them.
- Exposing the methods of EntityLocal on Entity, so we can
deprecate EntityLocal (this commit deals with just the attribute/sensor
methods of EntityLocal)
Note that I haven't changed any of the uses of the old attribute methods. I
wanted to get feedback first as to whether people agreed this was the right
thing to do!
