Fix query.to_readonly().get_component_mut() soundness bug (bevyengine…

…#6401)

# Objective

Fix the soundness issue outlined in bevyengine#5866. In short the problem is that `query.to_readonly().get_component_mut::<T>()` can provide unsound mutable access to the component. This PR is an alternative to just removing the offending api. Given that `to_readonly` is a useful tool, I think this approach is a preferable short term solution. Long term I think theres a better solution out there, but we can find that on its own time.

## Solution

Add what amounts to a "dirty flag" that marks Queries that have been converted to their read-only variant via `to_readonly` as dirty. When this flag is set to true, `get_component_mut` will fail with an error, preventing the unsound access.
