Description

After discussions at UCL with @robertcannon, we have decided that ComponentReferences are just adding entropy to LEMS, since all the cases where they are used can be straightforwardly implemented using Child(ren)s. Relates to #32.

Research direction

Start by locating the ComponentReference implementation and its usages, then compare them with the Child and Children mechanisms. Review the context in issue #32 and identify every affected case. Done means ComponentReferences are removed and those cases are represented through children without changing the intended LEMS behavior.
