Description

The current POST_NEW_ROOM callback runs after all entities in a room layout have both been spawned AND have run their first update, which can lead to many inconveniences.

Variants of the NEW_ROOM callback which would be useful would be:
-One which runs BEFORE any room entities are spawned
-One which runs after all room entities are spawned BUT before any of them have run their first update (if possible)

Research direction

Start by locating the POST_NEW_ROOM callback implementation and tracing the room entity spawn and first-update lifecycle. Determine whether callback points can be exposed before spawning and after spawning but before the first update; done means the requested timing variants are available without changing the existing callback's behavior.
