Not fully happy about the way this one interacts with the various
platforms. Maybe the platform_config.h should be generated by the
SCsub instead of passing a define just to know where is the header.
Took the opportunity to undo the Godot changed made to the
opus source. The opus module should eventually be built in its
own environment to avoid polluting others with too many include
dirs and defines.
TODO: Fix the platform/ stuff for opus.
Uses the new structure agreed upon in #6157, but the thirdparty/ folder
does not behave following a logic similar to that of modules/ yet.
The png driver can't be moved to a module as discussed in #6157, as it's
required by core together with a few other ImageLoader implementations
(see drivers/register_driver_types.cpp:register_core_driver_types())
Dropped the possibility to disable PNG support, it's a core component
of Godot.
As mentioned by upstream, Xiph.Org [0]:

* This allows building when ALSA libs are in a non-standard location. PKG_CONFIG_PATH alone is not enough as the final link fails. Adding this makes the final link succeed.
* The extra LIBS flag for alsa is not needed so removing.
Now it does not try to build if the solution is not found. This way it's
possible to provide a minimal package with includes and libs and make it
build correctly.
Also remove messages from detect.py since it is ran for every platform
target.
Under Windows, Scons is now capable of detecting and compiling with
standalone MSVC compilers (aka "Visual C++ Build Tools").
http://landinghub.visualstudio.com/visual-cpp-build-tools
Tried with version 2015, and native x86 and x64 compilers under
Windows 10 pro 64 and Windows 8.1 64, with the default Win8 SDK
provided by the "Visual C++ Build Tools" web-installer.
Follow the same compiling instructions than for compiling with Visual
Studio, except that Visual Studio is no more required.
KNOWN ISSUES :
- ``methods.detect_visual_c_compiler_version()`` will emit a warning message
on computers where the ``VSINSTALLDIR`` environement variable is not present.
But it should compile just fine and still automatically detects the 32 or
64 bits according to the compiler you picked.
TODO :
- eventually, update ``platform/winrt/dectet.py`` with function
``methods.msvc_is_detected()`` and try to compile winrt/UWP with
these standalone compilers (if you did not select Win10 SDK when
installing the standalone tools, you can run it again).
- update doc to make users aware of "Visual C++ Build Tools" aka
"stadalone MSVC".
- eventually, update ``methods.detect_visual_c_compiler_version()``
