Rapier context as a Component

   `RapierDebugColliderPlugin` and `DebugRenderContext`, as well as individual collider setup via
   a `ColliderDebug` component.
 
+### Modified
+
+- `RapierContext`, `RapierConfiguration` and `RenderToSimulationTime` are now a `Component` instead of resources.
+  - Rapier now supports multiple independent physics worlds, see example `multi_world3` for usage details.
+  - Migration guide:
+    - `ResMut<mut RapierContext>` -> `WriteDefaultRapierContext`
+    - `Res<RapierContext>` -> `ReadDefaultRapierContext`
+    - Access to `RapierConfiguration` and `RenderToSimulationTime` should query for it
+on the responsible entity owning the `RenderContext`.
+  - If you are building a library on top of `bevy_rapier` and would want to support multiple independent physics worlds too,
+you can check out the details of [#545](https://github.com/dimforge/bevy_rapier/pull/545)
+to get more context and information.
