Refactoring to simplify logic/enhance flexibility

[univeous]

Description

I think some parts of the current implementation are overly complex while not being flexible enough.

I made the following changes:

• Deprecate SequenceAction (I think they are not flexible enough)
• Deprecate Piece types (again, I don't think they're flexible enough; I think along with the following changes, just shape would suffice)
• Pieces can determine whether to match with other pieces
• Pieces can customize their behavior when consumed

Existing issues:

• I haven't got the SpecialShapeConsumerPiece in the demo to work yet
• Possible unexpected consumption behavior (when there are a large number of SpecialCrossPiece)
• SpecialCrossPiece may sometimes be consumed twice

I plan to make some fixes, but I can't promise.

Done!

Addressed issues

• Bomb with color/shape? #12
• Provides a quick way to transform a piece into another #13

I’ve fixed SpecialShapeConsumerPiece.
In fact, I now think that SequenceAction is indeed necessary. Otherwise, when two SpecialCrossPiece pieces swap and triggers, the animation for the elimination of the pieces only happens after both SpecialCrossPiece animations have finished playing, which feels unnatural. Perhaps we still need some form of Action, but not as many varieties.

Alright, I managed to get it working, but it might not be very intuitive. There might be a better way to approach this.

The only issue now is that sometimes I don’t know why the newly created SpecialCrossPiece gets triggered automatically. This seems to only happen in the consume phase after the fill phase. I’m not really sure what’s causing it.

Edit
I found it

I believe I've fixed all the bugs I know of. There's nothing more I can do on my end.

@ninetailsrabbit What are your thoughts?

Hi @univeous, there are too many changes, I have seen them at a glance and I would need a moment of concentration to go through it all in detail.

Even so, I appreciate your time, if you see that it works for you, keep at it. I think I will leave this repository a bit parked and I will focus on looking for a programming job since the needs of the real world are more important to me at the moment.

Of course, no problem! Please proceed at your own pace.
