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 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
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.
Acknowledge mouse button events as position tellers (to make picking more solid; for instance, the touch mouse is raised with a mouse unpressed event that may have a more current position)
Forget mouse position for physics if touch mouse raised (because the position known as last is no longer meaningful)
Remove needless check for mouse over/exit (now there's code to inject an spurious move for cases where camera/objects have moved)
Restrict 2D mouse over/exit to mouse events (including emulated from touch; true touches shouldn't trigger the signals)
Fixes#26460.
Following the universal input handling effort, this works the same for every platform, as long as the touch move event coming from it contains the relative movement.
The same tracking algorithm used to track the mouse speed is used here, but tracking separately each touch index.
Fixes#3623.
Fixes the following GCC 5 warnings:

We're not formally using C++11 yet so those trigger compilation warnings
(at least with GCC 5):
./main/input_default.h:122:30: warning: non-static data member initializers only available with -std=c++11 or -std=gnu++11
CursorShape default_shape = CURSOR_ARROW;
^
Note: We may allow those eventually (especially for non-int static const),
but most of current occurrences were inconsistent with all other classes.
See also http://www.stroustrup.com/C++11FAQ.html#member-init
This allows more consistency in the manner we include core headers,
where previously there would be a mix of absolute, relative and
include path-dependent includes.
This commit makes operator[] on Vector const and adds a write proxy to it. From
now on writes to Vectors need to happen through the .write proxy. So for
instance:
Vector<int> vec;
vec.push_back(10);
std::cout << vec[0] << std::endl;
vec.write[0] = 20;
Failing to use the .write proxy will cause a compilation error.
In addition COWable datatypes can now embed a CowData pointer to their data.
This means that String, CharString, and VMap no longer use or derive from
Vector.
_ALWAYS_INLINE_ and _FORCE_INLINE_ are now equivalent for debug and non-debug
builds. This is a lot faster for Vector in the editor and while running tests.
The reason why this difference used to exist is because force-inlined methods
used to give a bad debugging experience. After extensive testing with modern
compilers this is no longer the case.
Now generating mouse events from touch is optional (on by default) and it's performed by `InputDefault` instead of having each OS abstraction doing it. (*)
The translation algorithm waits for a touch index to be pressed and tracks it translating its events to mouse events until it is raised, while ignoring other pointers.
Furthermore, to avoid an stuck "touch mouse", since not all platforms may report touches raised when the window is unfocused, it checks if touches are still down by the time it's focused again and if so it resets the state of the emulated mouse.
*: In the case of Windows, since it already provides touch-to-mouse translation by itself, "echo" mouse events are filtered out to have it working like the rest.
On X11 a little hack has been needed to avoid a case of a spurious mouse motion event that is generated during touch interaction.
Plus: Improve/fix tracking of current mouse position.
** Summary of changes to settings: **
- `display/window/handheld/emulate_touchscreen` becomes `input/pointing_devices/emulate_touch_from_mouse`
- New setting: `input/pointing_devices/emulate_mouse_from_touch`
Fixes most current reports on Coverity Scan of uninitialized scalar
variable (CWE-457): https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/457.html
These happen most of the time (in our code) when instanciating structs
without a constructor (or with an incomplete one), and later returning
the instance. This is sometimes intended though, as some parameters are
only used in some situations and should not be double-initialized for
performance reasons (e.g. `constant` in ShaderLanguage::Token).

Some missing header guards were added, and the header inclusion order
was fixed in the Bullet module.
Rename user facing methods and variables as well as the corresponding
C++ methods according to the folloming changes:
* pos -> position
* rot -> rotation
* loc -> location
C++ variables are left as is.
