### SerializableCallback
Lets you drag-and-drop methods with or without return values / parameters in the Unity inspector.
It uses expression trees and reflection to cache a delegate on first execution.

Usage is identical to UnityEvent

```csharp
public class MyClass : MonoBehaviour {
//These fields are shown in the inspector
public SerializableCallback callback; // supports all non-void return types
public Condition condition; // supports bool return types only
public GetProduct getProduct; // supports MyProduct return types only

void Start() {
// Callbacks can be invoked with or without parameters, and with different types
Debug.Log(callback.Invoke()); // returns object
Debug.Log(condition.Invoke()); // returns bool
Debug.Log(getProduct.Invoke(2)); // returns MyProduct
}

// As with UnityEvents, custom callbacks must have a non-generic wrapper class marked as [Serializable] in order to be serialized by Unity
[Serializable]
public class Condition : SerializableCallback {}

// Last generic type parameter is the return type, staying consistent with System.Func
[Serializable]
public class GetProduct : SerializableCallback {}
}
```
