This is a much simpler attempt to solve the same problem as #76060, but without breaking any compatibility.
* Adds a description of what model space is in the Vector3 enums (MODEL_* constants). This has the proper axes laid out for imported 3D assets.
* Adds the option to `look_at` using model_space, which uses Vector3.MODEL_FRONT as forward vector.
The attempt of this PR is to still break the assumption that there is a single direction of forward (which is not the case in Godot)
and make it easier to understand where 3D models are facing, as well as orienting them via look_at.

Enable compressed mip maps from Basis Universal for faster compressions.
Increase the quality of Basis to avoid corruption.
To keep compatibility use the first mip of the previous internal Godot format.
Because texture names may have invalid filename characters, adds String::validate_filename to sanitize filenames for import pipeline use.
* Fix potential crash when using bind in `Variant::get_callable_error_text()`
* Properly compute bound arguments so they can be properly shown.
* Add a function to obtain the actual bound arguments.
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".
The main change is to caculate tangent directly from bezier curve, without going
through discretized polyline, avoiding pitfalls of discretization.
Other changes are:
1. Add an bezier_derivative() method for Vector3, Vector2, and Math;
2. Add an tesselate_even_length() method to Curve3D, which tesselate bezier curve to even length segments adaptively;
3. Cache the tangent vectors in baked_tangent_vector_cache;
