A snapshot version is a version that has not yet been released which allows us to deploy the same transient version incrementally, without requiring projects to upgrade the artifact version they're consuming. Those projects can use the same version to get an updated snapshot version.
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".
Backported from #70885.
This was done by refactoring directory and file access handling for the Android platform so that any general filesystem access type go through the Android layer.
This allows us to validate whether the access is unrestricted, or whether it falls under scoped storage and thus act appropriately.
- Using a bucketized approach to select the editor scale in order to avoid too high values
- Add default app dimensions: used on Android devices with free floating app windows to set the default app frame
- Add ability to launch the Game window in an adjacent frame when in multi window mode
(cherry picked from commit 6f7ec7f723)
These set of changes focus primarily on getting the core logic and overall Godot Editor UI and functionality up and running natively on Android devices.
UI tweaks / cleanup / polish, as well configuration for Android specific functionality / restrictions will be addressed in follow-up PRs iteratively based on feedback.

- Adds the parameters for supported Meta devices, which is required to access some device specific capabilities
- Remove the 'com.samsung.android.vr.application.mode' metadata when we're not using the VrApi plugin
This only adds support for a subset of Play Asset Delivery: this causes a single install-time asset pack to always be present, but doesn't add support for dynamically downloaded asset packs.
This is done by providing API access to app specific directories which don't have any limitations and allows us to bump the target sdk version to 30.
In addition, we're also bumping the min sdk version to 19 as version 18 is no longer supported by Google Play Services and only account of 0.3% of Android devices.
The `android:icon` attribute is expected to be the last one in the application
definition, as documented by the comment. cd64bcd missed that and caused some
arguments to be truncated.
Fixes#50224.
It can be turned off in the export preset with `package/classify_as_game`.
Upstream definition: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/application-element#isGame
> `android:isGame`

> Whether or not the application is a game. The system may group together

> applications.
Also fixes replacing `android:allowBackup` in custom builds.

It seems 30.0.1 had issues with compatibility with JDK 8 and 11,
which appear to be solved in 30.0.3 as per godotengine/godot-docs#4796.

In addition, add support for scaling and applying filter to the splash screen on Android.
One limitation of the api being used is that the splash screen aspect ratio is not maintained when it's scaled up.
This is what GitHub Actions now provide and they removed the previous 21.3.6528147.
A bit annoying to have our hand forced this way but it's still 21.x so should be good
to upgrade.

Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
