//       Class : NodePathComponent
// Description : This is one component of a NodePath.  These are
//               stored on each PandaNode, as many as one for each of
//               the possible instances of the node (but they only
//               exist when they are requested, to minimize memory
//               waste).  A NodePath represents a singly-linked list
//               of these from an arbitrary component in the graph to
//               the root.
//
//               This whole NodePath system is used to disambiguate
//               instances in the scene graph, and the
//               NodePathComponents are stored in the nodes themselves
//               to allow the nodes to keep these up to date as the
//               scene graph is manipulated.
