Description

The components API needs be updated to handle batch operations.

For example:

bool Add(Ref<Function> function)

should be changed to:

 bool Add(vector<Ref<Function>> function)

Same for the callbacks:

void OnComponentFunctionAdded(BinaryView* data, Component* component, Function* function)

should be changed to:

void OnComponentFunctionAdded(BinaryView* data, Component* component, vector<Function*> function)
