Exposes the "interpolated" flag on nodes via a property, physics_interpolation_mode.
Mode can be INHERIT, OFF and ON. This makes it easy to turn off interpolation for nodes in the editor, versus via code.
Adds fixed timestep interpolation to the visual server.
Switchable on and off with project setting.
This version does not add new API for set_transform etc, when nodes have the interpolated flag set they will always use interpolation.
-Allows more fine grained notifications (hence better performance) than using the global scene tree signals (node added and removed).
-Required for #55950
(cherry picked from commit fbd9599b04)
- Regarding preservation of owner, `free()` and `remove_child()` now behave the same: owner is kept during `tree_exiting` signal and `null` during `tree_exited`.
- Superfluous code to handle cancelation of ownership is removed.
- Mention the origin of the `get_node()` call.
- Mention whether the attempted path is absolute or relative.
See #46214.

Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
Change error checking in `duplicate_signals()` to check for path to
`p_original`, thus adhering to the method used in `duplicate`, instead
of checking for ownership.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
This method can be used to generate custom node warnings by script.
Node::_get_configuration_warning was already exposed to generate custom warnings, but it wasn't fully usable without being able to notify the scene tree when the warning needs to appear or change.
