Picking on CompositeSprite not usable from C++

No code to commit for this ATM, but i just noticed that the picking functions on the composite sprite are only console method and not member function of the C++ class. Same with the Scene class.

    You are correct. The code in those ConsoleMethods will have to be encapsulated in their own class methods to be usable from C++. The only code that needs to be left in the ConsoleMethod is the string conversion.

    There you go https://github.com/jonharson/Torque2D/tree/patch/CppPicking
    noticed also that picking ray on the collisions is not available on composite sprite so there is still that to fix i guess. This include the local/logical position geter wip functions on composite.
