Class that attaches a ChParticleEmitter to a physics item (most often that item is a ChBody).

The emitter can then move together with the body.

Updates the embedded emitter.

If a dt is passed, it creates the particles. No need to call this by the user, it is called automatically by the asset owner (ie. the body).

Reimplemented from chrono::ChAsset.
