Settings that aren't within a subsection are difficult to reach when
other settings do have a subsection.
This also adds documentation for the project setting.
When comparing different graphics settings or optimizations,
this makes precise measurements and frametime comparisons easier.
This also makes the editor FPS display use `pad_decimals()`
for consistency with the implementation in `master`.
Async. compilation via ubershader is currently available in the scene and particles shaders only.
Bonus:
- Use `#if defined()` syntax for not true conditionals, so they don't unnecessarily take a bit in the version flagset.
- Remove unused `ENABLE_CLIP_ALPHA` from scene shader.
- Remove unused `PARTICLES_COPY` from the particles shader.
- Remove unused uniform related code.
- Shader language/compiler: use ordered hash maps for deterministic code generation (needed for caching).
this commit makes godot executable to return zero exit code
once a valid script is passed via --script during --check-only
(cherry picked from commit 75ae3164a4)
This gives visual feedback when not starting Godot from a terminal.
This could lead to confusion when placing a Godot binary within a
project folder that has no main scene defined.

If enabled, key/touch/joystick events will be flushed just before every idle and physics frame.
Enabling this can greatly improve the responsiveness to input, specially in devices that need to run multiple physics frames per each idle frame, because of not being powerful enough to run at the target frame rate.
This will only work for platforms using input buffering (regardless event accumulation). Currenly, only Android does so, but could be implemented for iOS in an upcoming PR.
Input buffering is implicitly used by event accumulation, but this commit makes it more generic so it can be enabled for other uses.
For desktop OSs it's currently not feasible given main and UI threads are the same).
When the `sync_after_draw` feature was on it was possible for the profiler's frame_time measurement to be incorrect. This fixes this problem by storing the raw measured time for use by the profiler.
Investigations have showed that a lot of the random variation in frame deltas causing glitches may be due to sampling the time at the wrong place in the game loop.
Although sampling at the start of Main::Iteration makes logical sense, the most consistent deltas may be better measured after the location likely to block at vsync - either the OpenGL draw commands or the SwapBuffers.
Here we add an experimental setting to allow syncing after the OpenGL draw section of Main::Iteration.
Frame deltas are currently measured by querying the OS timer each frame. This is subject to random error. Frame delta smoothing instead filters the delta read from the OS by replacing it with the refresh rate delta wherever possible.
This PR also contains code to estimate the refresh rate based on the input deltas, without reading the refresh rate from the host OS.
Physics FPS above 1000 cause the whole project to slow down
and are not very practical in the first place (since no CPU currently
available can keep up).

- Display the frame time in addition to FPS.
- Frame time is a more objective measurement in comparison to FPS,
but FPS is more familiar to people less acquainted with profiling.
- Rename "Game" to "Project" for the project FPS printing line.

Having to rename project settings is rare, but when it does occur it can cause user confusion. In order to make compatibility more seamless this PR introduces two new GLOBAL_DEF functions,
GLOBAL_DEF_ALIAS(new_name, old_name, default)
GLOBAL_DEF_ALIAS_RST(new_name, old_name, default)
These are the same as the existing GLOBAL_DEF functions except that if the new setting is not found, it attempts to load from the old setting name. If the old setting is found, it stores it into the new setting, and then calls the regular GLOBAL_DEF functions.
More work is needed to make sure that those options actually solve users' issues, so we prefer to remove the options for 3.2.4 and revisit for a future release.
The rendering/quality/2d section of project settings is becoming considerably expanded in 3.2.4, and arguably was not the correct place for settings that were not really to do with quality.
3.2.4 is the last sensible opportunity we will have to move these settings, as the only existing one likely to break compatibility in a small way is `pixel_snap`, and given that the whole snapping area is being overhauled we can draw attention to the fact it has changed in the release notes.
Class reference is also updated and slightly improved.
`pixel_snap` is renamed to `gpu_pixel_snap` in the project settings and code to help differentiate from CPU side transform snapping.
In addition, add support for scaling and applying filter to the splash screen on Android.
One limitation of the api being used is that the splash screen aspect ratio is not maintained when it's scaled up.
- Based on C++11's `thread` and `thread_local`
- No more need to allocate-deallocate or check for null
- No pointer anymore, just a member variable
- Platform-specific implementations no longer needed (except for the few cases of non-portable functions)
- Simpler for `NO_THREADS`
- Thread ids are now the same across platforms (main is 1; others follow)
- Based on C++14's `shared_time_mutex`
- No more need to allocate-deallocate or check for null
- No pointer anymore, just a member variable
- Platform-specific implementations no longer needed
- Simpler for `NO_THREADS`
This can be used in server builds for journalctl compatibility.

Fixes crash when exiting with --verbose with leaked resources
(cherry picked from commit 25c4dacb88)
This adds a new project setting (`physics/common/enable_pause_aware_picking`). It's disabled by default.
When enabled, it changes the way 2D & 3D physics picking behaves in relation to pause:
- When pause is set, every collision object that is hovered or captured (3D only) is released from that condition, getting the relevant mouse-exit callback., unless its pause mode makes it immune from pause.
- During the pause. picking only considers collision objects immune from pause, sending input events and enter/exit callbacks to them as expected.
- When pause is left, nothing happens. This is a big difference with the classic behavior, which at this point would process all the input events that have been queued against the current state of the 2D/3D world (in other words, checking them against the current position of the objects instead of those at the time of the events).
This ensures that settings like `gui/theme/custom_font` handle resource
remappings properly, as they load resources in `register_scene_types()`.
Path remaps used to be done before loading scene types in early Godot
versions (as hinted by the "Load Remaps" comment just before "Load Scene
Types") but this was broken when developing new localization features.
Fixes#17640.

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 🎆
