feat(blenvy): significant breaking changes in the way components are handled

* to fix issues with hash collisions because of incomplete & incorect "component paths"
(ie the different nesting levels of the structs within components)
 * removed short name nested component path passing
 * changed the way the composite paths are created & the hash is generated
 * a lot of other related changes
 * also changed the registry's default path, to use the blenvy level assets path

         - [x] add warning about hash colision (not much we can/ could do if it is the case ?)
         - [ ] double check weird collisions AND/OR reuse existing if applicable
 
+    - [x] annoying default path for registry, should be relative to the assets path

 General things to solve:
  - [x] save settings
