Instead of reading files over the network, the new version uses a local file cache and only updates files when it changes.
The original remote filesystem was created 14 years ago, when ethernet was faster than hard drives or even flash. Also, mobile devices have a very small amount of storage.
Nowadays, this is no longer the case so the approach is changed to using a persistent cache in the target device.

* Only two texture import modes for low/high quality now:
* S3TC/BPTC
* ETC2/ASTC
* Makes sense given this is the general preferred and most compatible combination in most platforms.
* Removed lossy_quality from VRAM texture compression options. It was unused everywhere.
* Added a new "high_quality" option to texture import. When enabled, it uses BPTC/ASTC (BC7/ASTC4x4) instead of S3TC/ETC2 (DXT1-5/ETC2,ETCA).
* Changed MacOS export settings so required texture formats depend on the architecture selected.
This solves the following problems:
* Makes it simpler to import textures as high quality, without having to worry about the specific format used.
* As the editor can now run on platforms such as web, Mac OS with Apple Silicion and Android, it should no longer be assumed that S3TC/BPTC is available by default for it.
Use a TLSOptions configuration object which is created via static
functions.
- "TLSOptions.client": uses the standard CA and common name verification.
- "TLSOptions.client_unsafe": uses optional CA verification (i.e. if specified)
- "TLSOptions.server": is the standard server configuration (chain + key)
This will allow us to expand the TLS configuration options to include
e.g. mutual authentication without bloating the classes that uses
StreamPeerTLS and PacketPeerDTLS as underlying peers.
* Works for binary and text files.
* Makes EditorQuickOpen work with custom resources again.
* Information is cached and easily accessible.
Properly fixes#66179. Supersedes #66215 and supersedes #62417
**WARNING**: This required breaking backwards binary compatibility (.res and .scn files). Files saved after this PR is merged will no longer open in any earlier versions of Godot.
* It was not a resource, hence it was not working to load it as such.
* Changed so, when opened in editor, a parse error will not fail load and the text will be kept.
* This should allow proper editing from within the code editor, including syntax checking and saving files as-is in text.
Partially addresses #66820.
The code editor still needs to be changed for this to work.
* Works for text, binary and imported resources
* Allows better clean up of duplicate files.
TODO (future PRs):
* Use this API for assigning new UIDs to copied files.
* Use this API for UID conflict on FS scanning (if more than one file has the same UID, the newer one(s) should get assigned a different UID).
As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Implements basic ASTC support:
* Only 4x4 and 8x8 block sizes.
* Other block sizes are too complex to handle for Godot image compression handling. May be implemented sometime in the future.
The need for ASTC is mostly for the following use cases:
* Implement a high quality compression option for textures on mobile and M1 Apple hardware.
* For this, the 4x4 is sufficient, since it uses the same size as BPTC.
ASTC supports a lot of block sizes, but the benefit of supporting most of them is slim, while the implementation complexity in Godot is very high.
Supporting only 4x4 (and 8x8) solves the real problem, which is lack of a BPTC alternative on hardware where it's missing.
Note: This does not yet support encoding on import, an ASTC encoder will need to be added.
Non-exhaustive list of case-sensitive renames:
GDExtension -> GDNative
GDNATIVE -> GDEXTENSION
gdextension -> gdnative
ExtensionExtension ->Extension (for where there was GDNativeExtension)
EXTENSION_EXTENSION ->EXTENSION (for where there was GDNATIVE_EXTENSION)
gdnlib -> gdextension
gdn_interface -> gde_interface
gdni -> gde_interface
Add support for font weight and stretch selection when using system fonts.
Add function to get system fallback font from a font name, style, text, and language code.
Implement system font support for Android.
Use system fonts as a last resort fallback.
The methods returns a String, but the Variant was bound as a StringName.
We could alternatively change the method return type but that's a
breaking change which will requires code changes in other parts of the
engine.
Also fix broken `ERR_PRINT_ED` macro and simplify comments.
For the record these macros aren't used yet, they're intended to be used
where needed to surface messages in the toaster when useful to end users,
but we haven't done that codebase review yet.
