Moved previously builtin modules 'GameCenter', 'AppStore', 'iCloud' to separate modules to be represented as plugin.
Modified 'ARKit' and 'Camera' to not be builtin into engine and work as plugin.
Changed platform code so it's not affected by the move.
Modified Xcode project file to remove parameters that doesn't make any effect.
Added basic '.gdip' plugin config file.
A new `env.Run` method is added which allows to control the verbosity
of builders output automatically depending on whether the "verbose"
option is set. It also allows to optionally run any SCons commands in a
subprocess using the existing `run_in_subprocess` method, unifying
the interface. `Action` objects wrap all builder functions to include a
short build message associated with any action.
Notably, this removes quite verbose output generated by `make_doc_header`
and `make_editor_icons_action` builders.
Modules-specific tests can be written under respective module folders.
Each module should have "tests" folder created with the tests implemented
as `doctest` headers, so they can be collected by the buildsystem and
included directly in `tests/test_main.cpp` to be compiled.
This patch adds ability to include external, user-defined C++ modules
to be compiled as part of Godot via `custom_modules` build option
which can be passed to `scons`.
```
scons platform=x11 tools=yes custom_modules="../project/modules"
```
Features:
- detects all available modules under `custom_modules` directory the
same way as it does for built-in modules (not recursive);
- works with both relative and absolute paths on the filesystem;
- multiple search paths can be specified as a comma-separated list.
Module custom documentation and editor icons collection and generation
process is adapted to work with absolute paths needed by such modules.
Also fixed doctool bug mixing absolute and relative paths respectively.
Implementation details:
- `env.module_list` is a dictionary now, which holds both module name as
key and either a relative or absolute path to a module as a value.
- `methods.detect_modules` is run twice: once for built-in modules, and
second for external modules, all combined later.
- `methods.detect_modules` was not doing what it says on the tin. It is
split into `detect_modules` which collects a list of available modules
and `write_modules` which generates `register_types` sources for each.
- whether a module is built-in or external is distinguished by relative
or absolute paths respectively. `custom_modules` scons converter
ensures that the path is absolute even if relative path is supplied,
including expanding user paths and symbolic links.
- treats the parent directory as if it was Godot's base directory, so
that there's no need to change include paths in cases where custom
modules are included as dependencies in other modules.
Configured for a max line length of 120 characters.
psf/black is very opinionated and purposely doesn't leave much room for
configuration. The output is mostly OK so that should be fine for us,
but some things worth noting:
- Manually wrapped strings will be reflowed, so by using a line length
of 120 for the sake of preserving readability for our long command
calls, it also means that some manually wrapped strings are back on
the same line and should be manually merged again.
- Code generators using string concatenation extensively look awful,
since black puts each operand on a single line. We need to refactor
these generators to use more pythonic string formatting, for which
many options are available (`%`, `format` or f-strings).
- CI checks and a pre-commit hook will be added to ensure that future
buildsystem changes are well-formatted.
We already had `MODULE_*_ENABLED` defines but only in the modules
environment, and a few custom `*_ENABLED` defines in the main env
when we needed the information in core.
Now this is defined in a single header which can be included in the
files that need this information.
The new 'split_libmodules=yes' option is useful to work around linker
command line size limitations when linking a huge number of objects.
We're currently over 64k chars when linking libmodules.a on Windows
with MinGW, which triggers issues as seen in #30892.
Even on Linux, we can also reach linker command line size limitations
by adding more custom modules.
We force this option to True for MinGW on Windows, which fixes#30892.
Additional changes to lib splitting:
- Fix linking of the split module libs with interdependent symbols,
hacking our way into LINKCOM and SHLINKCOM to set the `--start-group`
and `--end-group` flags.
- Fix Python 3 compatibility in `methods.split_lib()`.
- Drop seemingly obsolete condition for 'msys' on 'posix'.
- Drop the unnecessary 'split_drivers' as the drivers lib is no longer
too big since we moved all thirdparty builds to modules.

Also added support for SCons project-absolute paths (starting with #) and
warning about duplicates in add_source_files(), and fixed
default_controller_mappings.gen.cpp being included twice after first build
due to *.cpp globbing.
Part of #30270.
It's the recommended way to set those, and is more portable
(automatically prepends -D for GCC/Clang and /D for MSVC).
We still use CPPFLAGS for some pre-processor flags which are not
defines.

Build System:
-Big clean up of SCons, changed how builds are done to a much cleaner method (check the Github Wiki for instructions).
-Deactivated BlackBerry10 (sorry), if no mantainer found (or BlackBerry does not send us a Passort ;), platform will be removed as we have no longer devices to test.
Engine:
-Removed deprecated object and scene format (was in there just for compatibility, not in use since a long time).
-Added ability to open scenes even if a node type was removed (will try to guess the closest type).
-Removed deprecated node types.
-Detect when free() might crash the project and throw error
-fixed 2D Bounce in physics (3d still broken)
-renamed “on_top” property to “behind_parent”, which makes more sense, old on_top remains there for compatibility but is invisible.
-large amount of fixes
