Existing shadow caster culling using the BVH takes no account of the camera. This PR adds the highly encapsulated class VisualServerLightCuller which can cut down the casters in the shadow volume to only those which can cast shadows on the camera frustum.
This is used to:
* More accurately defer dirty updates to shadows when the shadow volume does not intersect the camera frustum.
* Tighter cull shadow casters to the view frustum.
Lights dirty state is now automatically managed:
* Continuous (tighter caster culling)
* Static (all casters are rendered)
Previously if an action was both pressed and released on the same tick or frame, `is_action_just_pressed()` would return false, resulting in missed input.
This PR separately the timestamp for pressing and releasing so each can be tested independently.
Adds optional hierarchical culling to the 2D rendering (within VisualServer).
Each canvas item maintains a bound in local space of the item itself and all child / grandchild items. This allows branches to be culled at once when they don't intersect a viewport.
Large groups of similar rects can be processed more efficiently using the MultiRect command. Processing common to the group can be done as a one off, instead of per rect.
Adds the new API to VisualServerCanvas, and uses the new functionality from Font, BitmapFont, DynamicFont and TileMap, via the VisualServerCanvasHelper class.

Having a mix of settings with and without subcategory makes the 'Editor'
section stand out with a weird UX, as instead of simply being a foldable
section like the others, it also holds its own top-level settings and is
therefore selectable.
This wasn't the case in 3.4, and is fixed in 4.0 by refactoring, so for
3.5 we should preserve the 3.4 UX, even if it's not the best.
When an exported project crashes, the crash handler message
shouldn't reference the Godot issue tracker, as not all crashes
are Godot's fault.
Reporting crashes that only occur on exported projects is still allowed,
but it should not be done by people who aren't working on the project
in question.
(cherry picked from commit c850ccb7c0)
Backports features and bugfixes from current Godot 4.0 to 3.5 and brings functions and codebase of both version largely in sync to make tutorials more compatible and future backports easier.
This reduces stuttering when a material is displayed for the first
time, and prevents stuttering from occurring entirely after the
project is restarted when a similar situation is encountered.
When physics interpolation is active on a node, it is essential that transforms are updated during "_physics_process()" rather than "_process()" calls, for the interpolation to give the correct result.
This PR adds optional warnings for instances, cameras and multimeshes which can flag updates being incorrectly called, and thus make these problems much easier to fix.
This makes it easier to spot syntax errors when editing the
class reference. The schema is referenced locally so validation
can still work offline.
Each class XML's schema conformance is also checked on GitHub Actions.
Since some porjects may be relying on the former behavior, this is opt-in via a new project setting, disabled by default, but enabled for new projects, since it's the new standard behavior (and the only one in 4.0).
This ensures the project setting never disappears from the editor,
even if the current physics engine is GodotPhysics.
This also adds documentation for the Smooth Trimesh Collision
project setting.
This behavior is inconsistent with non tools builds and can create
issues. Instead, a warning is emitted if there's a type mismatch. If the
type can't be converted, an error is shown instead.
For the editor it gives a converted value to avoid issues with the
property editor, which expects the correct type.
