Added a map to keep track of external images during import, and used
that map to instance the textures using the resource loader instead of
creating a new texture from scratch
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".
Backported from #70885.
Fleshed out the "Optimize Mesh" options found in the mesh import UI
Gave a checkbox to every vertex attribute that can be compressed
Surfaced option to enable/disable Octahedral compression for
normal/tangent vectors
Also surfaces the vertex position compression option which previously
inaccessible because the defaults did not compress vertex positions
Supports all current importers (obj, fbx, collada, gltf)
Create GLTFSkeleton at the same time we create GLTFNode objects.
Create GLTFSkin at the same time we export MeshInstance3D
Fixes export of blend shape arrays for meshes with multiple surfaces.
Fixes array indexing issues in export of glTF morph target animations.
Converts BoneAttachment3D nodes during normal node creation: this avoids
special cases during mesh export, and especially exporting skeletons or meshes
which are children of BoneAttachment3D.
