Resolution Note:
This is by design, see https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/execution-order.html. Quote:
`Awake is only guaranteed to be called before OnEnable in the scope of each individual object. Across multiple objects the order is not deterministic and you can’t rely on one object’s Awake being called before another object’s OnEnable. Any work that depends on Awake having been called for all objects in the scene should be done in Start.`
Thus, here we can't count on CharacterControllerAdapter_Player's Awake to be called before OnEnterState (which is sent from within OnEnable of the StateMachine -- a different object as far as the loading sequence is concerned ).
