annotate base/ById.h @ 1742:52705a328b34 by-id

Rejig ById so as to put everything in a single pool, so that at the core you can go from numeric id (untyped) to anything the object can be dynamic_cast to. Useful for building other abstractions like PlayParameter-type registrations that don't know about e.g. Models. Probably some more tweaking needed. Also add tests
