This removes the countless small UBO writes we had before
and replaces them with a single large write per render pass.
This results in much faster rendering on low-end devices
but improves speed on all devices.
Fixes include using proper depth buffer format in 3D (this had previously been fixed already but the changes were lost in a rebase), Remove unused lighting and shadowing code in 2D, and update 2D UBOs using glBufferSubData so that they remain the appropriate size.
Add "generate_mipmap" font import option.
Add some missing features to the Sprite3D.
Move BiDi override code from Control to TextServer.
Add functions to access TextServer font cache textures.
Add MSDF related flags and shader to the standard material.
Change standard material cache to use HashMap instead of Vector.
- Rename OpenGL to GLES3 in the source code per community feedback.
- The renderer is still exposed as "OpenGL 3" to the user.
- Hide renderer selection dropdown until OpenGL support is more mature.
- The renderer can still be changed in the Project Settings or using
the `--rendering-driver opengl` command line argument.
- Remove commented out exporter code.
- Remove some OpenGL/DisplayServer-related debugging prints.
Due to the port to Vulkan and complete redesign of the rendering backend,
the `drivers/gles3` code is no longer usable in this state and is not
planned to be ported to the new architecture.
The GLES2 backend is kept (while still disabled and non-working) as it
will eventually be ported to serve as the low-end renderer for Godot 4.0.
Some GLES3 features might be selectively ported to the updated GLES2
backend if there's a need for them, and extensions we can use for that.
So long, OpenGL driver bugs!

In 2.1 and 3.0, light_vec could be modified for altering shadow_computations.
But it broke shadows when rotating light. shadow_vec would do the same, but without breaking
shadows in rotated lights if not used.
Add inverse light transformation to shadow vec, so it's not affected when rotating lights;
Added usage define for shadow vec.
For shadow vec working properly when rotating a light, it's needed to multiply it by light_matrix normalized. Added usage define in order to don't do that if shadow_vec not used.
Remove animation loop from ParticlesMaterial and move it to
SpatialMaterial for 3D particles and Particles2D for the 2D case.
Added animation to CPUParticles2D as well as the "Convert to
CPUParticles2D" to the PAarticles2D menu.
Custom instance transform was not taken into account for normal map
calculation. Also renamed `extra_matrix2` to `extra_matrix_instance` for
more clarity.
As of clang-format 6.0.1, putting the `/* clang-format off */` hint
around our "invalid" `[vertex]` and `[shader]` statements isn't enough
to prevent a bogus indent of the next comments and first valid statement,
so we need to enclose that first valid statement in the unformatted chunk.
