Rewrite assets and loading to use atelier-assets

• Each asset type needs its own type uuid.
• Each asset needs its own asset uuid.

Generating UUIDs for each component sequence:

• namespace/name based GUIDs
• yauuid crate, we should likely use Uuid::new_v3 (uses md5 hashing, but faster).

From @Kae:

I think there are two features that would help you in addition to SerdeImportable:

• Handle references that are registered by path instead of UUID (resolved transparently by the framework): Handling assets with path references in the build process amethyst/distill#2
• Custom build pipelines - a way to run code after import, but before loading i.e. "offline", to transform an asset from one asset type to another asset type. This can be used to transform from AOS to SOA for example.

Notes:

• Set up CI to have capnp on PATH.

Maybe use warmy instead, as it is looks ready for our use case.
