/**
 * @file state_machine.h
 *
 * @brief State Machine
 *
 * This file is the interface into a generic state machine system.
 *
 * State machines are defined as an array of function callbacks where each state
 * is an index in the array with three functions per state: `on_init()`,
 * `on_update()`, and `on_exit()`.
 *
 * **`on_init()`** Ran once when transitioning into the new state
 * **`on_update()`** Ran once every frame
 * **`on_exit()`** Ran once when exiting a state, for cleanup.
 *
 * The state machine `on_update()` function is "registered" to a linked-list of
 * other state machine update functions. This list will call the state machines
 * active `on_update()` function. This allows much of the complexity of state
 * transitions to remain central to `state_machine.c`. Also, multiple state
 * machines can be registered to this list. This allows using substates within
 * states, or have one off state machines like animation controllers.
 *
 * When a state machine is finished, it can "remove" itself from the main update
 * callback list. This can be done within the update method of its own state
 * machine. This can be used to start a self destructing state machine.
