/** @brief Node is the base element of the Scene Graph. Elements of the Scene Graph must be Node objects or subclasses of it.
 The most common Node objects are: Scene, Layer, Sprite, Menu, Label.

 The main features of a Node are:
 - They can contain other Node objects (`addChild`, `getChildByTag`, `removeChild`, etc)
 - They can schedule periodic callback (`schedule`, `unschedule`, etc)
 - They can execute actions (`runAction`, `stopAction`, etc)

 Subclassing a Node usually means (one/all) of:
 - overriding init to initialize resources and schedule callbacks
 - create callbacks to handle the advancement of time
 - overriding `draw` to render the node

 Properties of Node:
 - position (default: x=0, y=0)
 - scale (default: x=1, y=1)
 - rotation (in degrees, clockwise) (default: 0)
 - anchor point (default: x=0, y=0)
 - contentSize (default: width=0, height=0)
 - visible (default: true)

 Limitations:
 - A Node is a "void" object. If you want to draw something on the screen, you should use a Sprite instead. Or subclass Node and override `draw`.

     The only exception if the Nodes have a Global Z Order == 0. In that case, the Scene Graph order is used.
