The previous RGBA format included unused RGB data. Using the LA8 format
removes the need to store the extra data.
The Docs have been updated to reflect the format changes.

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 🎆

limitations:
- always has to use generated normal's.
- some animations won't be compatible (yet)

This is needed with newer Mono versions, at least with Mono 6.12+
Depends on the following commit from our build scripts:
godotengine/godot-mono-builds@9d75cff174

The code we had for PVRTexTool doesn't work as it's not compatible with current
PVRTexTool CLI options, and likely hasn't been for years.
Instead, we have our own vendored pvrtccompressor thirdparty library which all
users have thus de-facto been using. This commit moves the compress code to
`modules/pvr` where it belongs.
There's no proper compress function for PVRTC 2-bit format, that's a bug that
will need to be fixed (currently it's compressed as 4-bit format even if you
use Image::FORMAT_PVRTC2).
Fixes#28669.

Better materials:
- default values will no longer trigger things like emission,
clear coat being enabled etc incorrectly, mostly importers misunderstand
this value, a value of 1 is not actually enabled emission, it must have a
non zero setting other than emission value for the emission flags to
actually be enabled correctly in our engine #42386
- lambert materials are warned against significantly,
do not use Lambert in Godot, use a PBR material like Ai Standard Surface
(it's like going from low quality to high definition in terms of output
in scenes and on assets)
- roughness values are calculated correctly in this version
Fixes for normal's array - some normal's from some files were dropped and
generated, this is now fixed.
- FBX indexing for items with (-1) index, for normal data is supported,
this is super helpful at increasing our range of compatibility of
FBX meshes.
Fix bone rest data **no longer requiring go to bind pose in Maya and various applications**
- Partial fix for #43688
Validation tools added for validating large projects
Provide package name, vendor and FBX vendor in the log.
Implemented metadata properties so we can read extra document
info required for bug reporting
**FBX 2011 (version 7200)** is unsupported now,
you must re-export your file in Maya or Max to upgrade the file format.
Fixes skin bind poses being generated based on node xforms in the scene
Fixes duplicate bones being added to skin and prevents add_bones from
registering skeleton bones it now registers skin bind poses,
but this should really be documented in the engine correctly right now
it doesn't tell you this is the case.
- Avoid spaces in Mono log file names.
- Use a `.log` extension for Mono logs, just like non-Mono logs.
- Use periods to separate hours/minutes/seconds for non-Mono logs.

Makes it let's bothersome to work with builds from our
godotengine/godot-mono-builds scripts, as they write the
BCL into an output directory separate from the runtime
(which is good as two runtimes may share the same BCL).
