/**
    An object to take care of the logic for dragging components around with the mouse.

    Very easy to use - in your mouseDown() callback, call startDraggingComponent(),
    then in your mouseDrag() callback, call dragComponent().

    When starting a drag, you can give it a ComponentBoundsConstrainer to use
    to limit the component's position and keep it on-screen.

    e.g. @code
    class MyDraggableComp
    {
        ComponentDragger myDragger;

        void mouseDown (const MouseEvent& e)
        {
            myDragger.startDraggingComponent (this, e);
        }

        void mouseDrag (const MouseEvent& e)
        {
            myDragger.dragComponent (this, e, nullptr);
        }
    };
    @endcode

        @param e                    the current mouse-drag event
