Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
All of the downstream repos declare a function load_modules(sde::ModuleManager& mm). If this API ever needs to change we'll need to change it in multiple places.

Describe the solution you'd like
Ideally there should be macros for declaring and defining load_modules so that all of the downstream dependencies are kept in synch if the API ever needs to change.

Research direction

Start by locating the downstream load_modules(sde::ModuleManager& mm) declarations and definitions, then inspect how PluginPlay exposes related module-loading APIs. Done means macros can declare and define load_modules while keeping the downstream API synchronized; the issue does not name specific files or tests.
