- Renames PackedIntArray to PackedInt32Array.
- Renames PackedFloatArray to PackedFloat32Array.
- Adds PackedInt64Array and PackedFloat64Array.
- Renames Variant::REAL to Variant::FLOAT for consistency.
Packed arrays are for storing large amount of data and creating stuff like
meshes, buffers. textures, etc. Forcing them to be 64 is a huge waste of
memory. That said, many users requested the ability to have 64 bits packed
arrays for their games, so this is just an optional added type.
For Variant, the float datatype is always 64 bits, and exposed as `float`.
We still have `real_t` which is the datatype that can change from 32 to 64
bits depending on a compile flag (not entirely working right now, but that's
the idea). It affects math related datatypes and code only.
Neither Variant nor PackedArray make use of real_t, which is only intended
for math precision, so the term is removed from there to keep only float.
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.

The method was implemented back when Dictionary.get(key, default) did not
exist, but now that it does we do not need a custom method in CharFXTransform.
It's a new feature in 3.2, so does not break compat with 3.1.x.
Fixed a bug introduced in my previous PR involving CharFXTransform not
allowing the use of type hinting. Should now work properly. This should
also help with Godot Mono issues...
Added a new ItemFX type to RichTextLabel which supports dynamic text
effects.
RichTextEffect Resource Type was added which can be extended for more
real time text effects.
