New extension: Create Objects Between Two Positions

[github-actions[bot]]

Description

This extensions makes it easier for a user to create a line of objects equally spaced apart between either two positions or two objects. Each event has a centered and non-centered version. This allows the user to place the objects by their origin or by their center.

How to use the extension

To use this sprite you can:

1. Use the Create Objects Between Positions event and/or the centered version event. Select an object to be created, then select two positions to create between and a number of objects. Run the event and a line of objects will be made.
2. Use the Create a Line of an Object Between Two Objects event and/or the centered version event. Select an object to be created, then select two objects to create the first object between. Run the event and a line of the first object will be made.

Hello @User8426, Great extension ! ❤️ I noticed few things that need to be fixed:

• The total objects created between the marks are not the same as the one I pick, for example when I set the total created objects between 2 objects to 100, it will create 101 between them when I set it to 1 it creates 2.

• when I set the total objects to 0, it creates 1 but invisible.

I noticed few things that need to be fixed, make sure to read the extension best practices here: https://wiki.gdevelop.io/gdevelop5/extensions/best-practices

• The variables of the extension must follow the best practices, for example your variable: ObjectsBetweenPositions.XChange should be replaced with __ObjectsBetweenPositions.XChange double underscore is required, same thing apply to all your variables.

• Your description in every parameter should follow Pascal Case, for example: Object To Create should be replaced with Object to create same thing apply to everything in the extension.

Thanks for the review,

Apologies about the latter two issues, I read on best practices at one point that you shouldn't use private methods or variables so I assumed I shouldn't use __ and I haven't used Pascal Case much. I believe I've fixed all of the issues found in the review in this version.
