ParticleModule class abstract Particles

A unit of per-particle behaviour layered onto a system's simulation.

Modules run in two phases, in list order: spawn is called once for each newly created particle (to set birth state a shape or the main config does not), and update is called once per simulation step over all live particles (to apply forces or evaluate over-life properties). Both default to no-ops so a module implements only the phase it needs. A module touches only the storage columns it documents.
