Individual bones are not represented as `Node`s in Godot, in order to support meta functionality for them the skeleton has to carry the information similarly to how other per-bone properties are handled.
- Also adds support for GLTF import/export
* Replaces `find(...) != -1` with `contains` for `String`
* Replaces `find(...) == -1` with `!contains` for `String`
* Replaces `find(...) != -1` with `has` for containers
* Replaces `find(...) == -1` with `!has` for containers
Random-access access to `List` when iterating is `O(n^2)` (`O(n)` when
accessing a single element)
* Removed subscript operator, in favor of a more explicit `get`
* Added conversion from `Iterator` to `ConstIterator`
* Remade existing operations into other solutions when applicable
* Node processing works on the concept of process groups.
* A node group can be inherited, run on main thread, or a sub-thread.
* Groups can be ordered.
* Process priority is now present for physics.
This is the first steps towards implementing https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/issues/6424.
No threading or thread guards exist yet in most of the scene code other than Node. That will have to be added later.
Removes all 3D modification resources. SkeletonIK3D is a node and still supported.
Remove deprecated Skeleton3D functionality for 4.0, so we can add it back in 4.x.
Remove local_pose_override feature from Skeleton3D and BoneAttachment3D.
Expose Skeleton3D::get_version() so IK scripts/extensions can cache bones.
Note: This change only affects 3D. SkeletonModification2D will work as before.
As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
