-------------------------+----------------------
The component system offers new and very useful opportunities to
(re-)implement "precaching" for all relevant resources in a game world.

Implementing "precaching" support is covered in the normal component
system development schedule, because, as with all other features, it will
be ported to the component system before it is removed from the old,
obsolete game code.

Nevertheless, this ticket is supposed to act as an explicit reminder of
this important, but easily overlooked sub-feature. ;-)

(Re-)Introduce pre-caching.

We used to use pre-caching in the past, but it went under in the
transition to
the entity component system. This change generally restores pre-caching.
It focuses on the "carried weapons" models, which can now be picked up
without
affecting frame-rate at all.

More resources can be added for pre-caching at any time.

Closes #139.
