`World::init_component` docs do not explain that components are generally automatically initialized #16447

How can Bevy's documentation be improved?

init_component is used to register components for use. However, when using systems, components are automatically registered when the system is initialized.

This was spotted when reviewing https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/16434, which suggests that you call this method if World::try_query fails.
