## Library & Tooling Updates

### [Goods]

Asset management library that aims to be easy to use, flexible, extensible
and support virtually any use-case:

* Need to load compund asset that pulls subassets without boilerplate on
call-site? All heavy-lifting for loading subassets can be done in `Format`
implementation for the asset type.
* Asset is made of GPU resources and access to graphics device is required to
create asset instance? `Asset::build` receives reference to `Asset::Context`.
* Targeting browser? `goods` support building for wasm
and even bundle Fetch API based asset data source.
* Target doesn't have `std`? Core types and traits are `no_std` compatible.
But `alloc` is required.
* Looking to keep things tidy and fast to build? Clean build of the crate
with no features takes about ~3s on modern CPU.
* Integration with `serde` ecosystem? Special `Format` implementations can load
assets whose representation implement `serde::de::DeserializeOwned`.
Crate includes `Format`s for loading assets from JSON, YAML and RON docuemts.

Crate's repo has few examples with nearly each line of the code explained.
