Elliot Smith e8e360eaa7 cookbook: Added a recipe for reusing a complex animation
This recipe explains how to "reuse" the same animation
definition for different actors, by creating a new
instance of a "rig" (empty container) and animation
for the rig each time the animation is required.

An actor is then re-parented to the rig and animated
using it, rather than being animated directly.

JSON is used to define the rig + animator, to make
creating new instances of them simpler. The recipe
also discusses various caveats around using this
approach, rather than directly animating an actor.
