Using 2.2.7.dev217+g10c2abcf.
Had to add `colour` to the ignore list as we used it as an alias/keyword for the
documentation of color-related APIs.
Also ignore recommendations to change `thirdparty` to either `third-party` or
`third party`, which are correct but we use the former fairly consistently.
Adds two new GDExtension interface methods:
- `editor_help_load_xml_from_utf8_chars`
- `editor_help_load_xml_from_utf8_chars_and_len`
Both of these methods parse the XML passed into an extra documentation
container which, when needed, is merged into the main doc container.

So far, an indirection via String was necessary, causing at least 2 allocations and copies (String; String inside StringName).
Since StringNames often refer to string literals, this allows them to be directly constructed from C strings.
There are two formats: Latin-1 and UTF-8.
The Latin-1 constructor also provides the `p_is_static` flag: when the source has static storage duration, no copy/allocation will be needed.
However, the extension developer needs to uphold this lifetime guarantee.
This adds two functions to `GDExtensionClassCreationInfo` that allow for developers to supply a generic virtual call function along with user data to be sent to that call.
If `get_virutal_call_data_func` is not null, extensions call this function to get user data to pass to a supplied `call_virtual_with_data_func`. Both must be provided is one is provided.
If `get_virtual_call_data_func` is null, Godot falls back to the old `get_virtual_func` logic.

Previously the `p_reversed` parameter didn't influence the order
in a correct way.
Also script overridden _notification functions were not called in
the correct order.
To fix this some `notification` functions had to add a `p_reversed`
parameter.
This made it necessary to adjust cpp-bindings.

All GDExtension function pointer types are versioned using a `@since` attribute, denoting the Godot minor version in
which they were introduced. This allows bindings to query if a feature is available for a target API version, or provide
a polyfill/fallback for it. It also serves as documentation for humans giving a feeling about recency of features.
This commit introduce separate types (e.g. GDNativeStringPtr vs GDNativeUninitializedStringPtr)
depending on if the pointed data is already initialized (C++ style where constructor is alway
called when create a variable even if it is to be passed as return value) or not (C style).
On top of that, small changes has been made to `GDNativeInterface` so that it methods are
consistent on using uninitialized return value.
* This should optimize GDScript function calling _enormously_.
* It also should simplify the GDScript VM considerably.
NOTE: GDExtension calling performance has most likely been affected until going via ptrcall is fixed.
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".
A while ago, argument arrays were passed as const GDNativeTypePtr* (void* const*)
This was changed to GDNativeConstTypePtr* (void const**), adding const on the value but removing it on the pointer level.
This commit changes argument types to const GDExtensionConstTypePtr* (void const* const*).
Besides object pointers, the same change is applied to variant pointers.
