Now that GDScript type hints improve performance since Godot 4.0
and the community is increasingly getting used to typed GDScript,
it makes sense to add type hints by default.
Official demos will also be moving to type hints at some point
in the future, further increasing the relevance of enabling type
hints out of the box.
The editor setting makes it possible to tweak V-Sync status
independently of the project setting.
Use cases:
- Decrease input lag and increase editor responsiveness when editing
a project that has V-Sync enabled.
- Avoid tearing when editing a project that has V-Sync disabled.
Each time an AABB is rotated, it gets bigger. That means opposite rotations don't cancel out.
The previous implementation repeatedly rotates children AABBs as it climbs up the tree. This often resulted in selection boxes looking bigger than their contents.
This implementation calculates and applies a single final transformation to each AABB before it is merged with the others. After merging, there are no additional rotations, so AABBs remain accurate.

This PR also adds default font styles for RichTextLabels
in the editor, and improves the introduction dialog
when you don't have any local projects available.
The offline mode is implemented in the asset library
plugin, alongside some code improvements.
Not everything is yet implemented, either for Godot or personal
limitations (I don't have all hardware in the world). A brief list of
the most important issues follows:
- Single-window only: the `DisplayServer` API doesn't expose enough
information for properly creating XDG shell windows.
- Very dumb rendering loop: this is very complicated, just know that
the low consumption mode is forced to 2000 Hz and some clever hacks are
in place to overcome a specific Wayland limitation. This will be
improved to the extent possible both downstream and upstream.
- Features to implement yet: IME, touch input, native file dialog,
drawing tablet (commented out due to a refactor), screen recording.
- Mouse passthrough can't be implement through a poly API, we need a
rect-based one.
- The cursor doesn't yet support fractional scaling.
- Auto scale is rounded up when using fractional scaling as we don't
have a per-window scale query API (basically we need
`DisplayServer::window_get_scale`).
- Building with `x11=no wayland=yes opengl=yes openxr=yes` fails.
This also adds a new project property and editor setting for selecting the
default DisplayServer to start, to allow this backend to start first in
exported projects (X11 is still the default for now). The editor setting
always overrides the project setting.
