This can be used to tell Godot to run an executable that will run Godot
rather than running Godot directly. This is useful to make Godot start
on the dedicated GPU when using a NVIDIA Optimus setup on Linux:
`prime-run %command%`
The `editor/run/main_run_args` setting declaration was moved to make it
visible in the ProjectSettings documentation.

This commits adds a new emitter type for particles material
and 3D CPU particles. The new emitter is called "ring"
and it can emit either in a ring or cylinder fashion.
This adds the following properties for the emitter:
1. ring_emitter_axis: the axis along which the ring/cylinder
will be constructed
2. ring_emitter_radius: outer radius of the ring/cylinder
3. ring_emitter_inner_radius: inner radius of the cylinder.
when set to zero, particles will emit in the full volume.
4. ring_emitter_height: height of the ring/cylinder emitter.

As a bonus, to have consistency between use Beziers and create insert tracks, use Beziers also gets a default via editor settings that is used when the confirmation dialog is disabled, instead of just falling back to creating non-Bezier tracks.
List of changes:
- Modified bvh class to handle 2D and 3D as a template
- Changes in Rect2, Vector2, Vector3 interface to uniformize template
calls
- New option in Project Settings to enable BVH for 2D Physics (enabled
by default like in 3D)
Seeking isn't implemented in built-in video formats and can only
be supported in GDNative-provided video formats.

This non-obvious behavior can take a while to discover and fix,
so it's important to mention it in the class reference.
(cherry picked from commit 554742312d)
Allows users to override default API usage, in order to get best performance on different platforms.
Also changes the default legacy flags to use STREAM rather than DYNAMIC.
Added note to say that custom shaders operate on VERTEX after the transform with software skinning rather than before (as is the case with hardware skinning).
- Fix objects with no material being considered as fully transparent by the lightmapper.
- Added "environment_min_light" property: gives artistic control over the shadow color.
- Fixed "Custom Color" environment mode, it was ignored before.
- Added "interior" property to BakedLightmapData: controls whether dynamic capture objects receive environment light or not.
- Automatically update dynamic capture objects when the capture data changes (also works for "energy" which used to require object movement to trigger the update).
- Added "use_in_baked_light" property to GridMap: controls whether the GridMap will be included in BakedLightmap bakes.
- Set "flush zero" and "denormal zero" mode for SSE2 instructions in the Embree raycaster. According to Embree docs it should give a performance improvement.
Changes default ninepatch mode to preserve compatibility, and renames default mode to 'fixed'.
Also adds an editor restart to changing ninepatch mode and software skinning, which will be more user friendly.
More work is needed to make sure that those options actually solve users' issues, so we prefer to remove the options for 3.2.4 and revisit for a future release.
If true, collision shapes are shown in the editor and at run-time.
Requires Visible Collision Shapes to be enabled in the Debug menu,
for collision shapes to be visible at run-time.
Based on the doc, I wasn't sure if get_closest_point would return the
closest baked point or the closest "source" point. It seems to use
baked:

The rendering/quality/2d section of project settings is becoming considerably expanded in 3.2.4, and arguably was not the correct place for settings that were not really to do with quality.
3.2.4 is the last sensible opportunity we will have to move these settings, as the only existing one likely to break compatibility in a small way is `pixel_snap`, and given that the whole snapping area is being overhauled we can draw attention to the fact it has changed in the release notes.
Class reference is also updated and slightly improved.
`pixel_snap` is renamed to `gpu_pixel_snap` in the project settings and code to help differentiate from CPU side transform snapping.
Antialiasing is not supported for batched polys. Currently due to the fallback mechanism, skinned antialiased polys will be rendered without applying animation.
This PR simply treats such polys as if antialiasing had not been selected. The class reference is updated to reflect this.
A template for `jsdoc` that generat the HTML5 public classref.
The script can be run via `npm run docs` to print to stdout.
You can dry run via `npm run docs -- --d dry-run` or write to file via
`npm run docs -- -d /path/to/file.rst`
Also update Makefile in `doc/` and add dry run test to CI.

bsearch_custom arguments
name - type - description
value - Variant - bisection search value
obj - Any object instance - Location of the 2 argument comparison function
func - String - Name of the function declared in obj
before - boolean - first and second resolver

This suppresses the blocky shadow appearance, bringing the shadow rendering
much closer to GLES3. This soft filter is more demanding as it requires
more lookups, but it makes PCF13 shadows more usable.
The soft PCF filter was adapted from three.js.
Remove reference to "icon" (must have been a copy-paste error) & clarify where to find out what names & node_types are valid.

This can be used to ensure a file has its contents saved
even if the project crashes or is killed by the user
(among other use cases).
See discussion in #29075.

Fixes crash when exiting with --verbose with leaked resources
(cherry picked from commit 25c4dacb88)
Added BakedLightmap.use_hdr and BakedLightmap.use_color properties
that can reduce the flie size of lightmap texture at the expense of quality.
Changed the denoiser to work in a single buffer, reducing RAM
usage. Also added the `-mstackrealign` flag in the denoiser compilation
for MinGW builds. This flag helped fix a bug in Embree, so I want to see
if it will help fix GH #45296.
According to the docs at
https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/plugins/editor/import_plugins.html#the-editorimportplugin-class
> The get_visible_name() method is responsible for returning the name of
> the type it imports and it will be shown to the user in the Import dock.
> You should choose this name as a continuation to "Import as", e.g.
> "Import as Silly Material"
I've verified Godot's behavior reflects this, so the code examples
should reflect this.
Also document propagating save error in EditorImportPlugin.
It seems that the suggested code ignores any error from
`ResourceSaver.save`, but I think we should return it.
(cherry picked from commit 9676650f2f)
This adds a new project setting (`physics/common/enable_pause_aware_picking`). It's disabled by default.
When enabled, it changes the way 2D & 3D physics picking behaves in relation to pause:
- When pause is set, every collision object that is hovered or captured (3D only) is released from that condition, getting the relevant mouse-exit callback., unless its pause mode makes it immune from pause.
- During the pause. picking only considers collision objects immune from pause, sending input events and enter/exit callbacks to them as expected.
- When pause is left, nothing happens. This is a big difference with the classic behavior, which at this point would process all the input events that have been queued against the current state of the 2D/3D world (in other words, checking them against the current position of the objects instead of those at the time of the events).
Like the Tween cheatsheet or Color constants cheatsheet, this references
a "cheatsheet" image from the documentation repository.

This is how I would expect it to work, but the docs didn't clarify, so I
had to check the source just to make sure I wasn't responsible for
freeing the timer:

The RichTextLabel class is inconsistent in how it updates the
visible_characters and percent_visible properties when either is changed.
To keep both properties consistent, update percent_visible when setting the
visible_characters property.
For both properties, when setting one, notify change for the other.
Docs updated for member set_visible_characters on RichTextLabel class.
(cherry picked from commit 463e2002ab)
- Fix Embree runtime when using MinGW (patch by @RandomShaper).
- Fix baking of lightmaps on GridMaps.
- Fix some GLSL errors.
- Fix overflow in the number of shader variants (GLES2).
The description for audio_track_set_key_stream referenced a parameter called offset, which is not a parameter for that method. The description now references the correct parameter, stream.
(cherry picked from commit 81dc9be973)
Complete rewrite of spatial partitioning using a bounding volume hierarchy rather than octree.
Switchable in project settings between using octree or BVH for rendering and physics.
3.2 version of b5107715f1.
`get_seed()` still returns the previous state and not the initial seed,
because users may rely on this behavior for resetting the state in 3.2.
Documented this is going to be fixed in 4.0.
