0.5.0

Breaking Changes

SubController paths are now defined by passing a name when registering with a parent Controller rather than by passing the full list when creating. Registered SubControllers are now stored in a dictionary by path, not a list.

controller.register_sub_controller(SubController("a"))
-> controller.register_sub_controller("a", SubController())

sub_controllers: list[str] = controller.get_sub_controllers()
-> sub_controllers: dict[str, BaseController] = controller.get_sub_controllers()
