Add an XML schema for documentation
This makes it easier to spot syntax errors when editing the
class reference. The schema is referenced locally so validation
can still work offline.

Each class XML's schema conformance is also checked on GitHub Actions.

<brief_description>
A custom shader program.
</brief_description>
<description>
This class allows you to define a custom shader program that can be used by a [ShaderMaterial]. Shaders allow you to write your own custom behavior for rendering objects or updating particle information. For a detailed explanation and usage, please see the tutorials linked below.

<description>
Returns the texture that is set as default for the specified parameter.
[b]Note:[/b] [code]param[/code] must match the name of the uniform in the code exactly.
[b]Note:[/b] If the sampler array is used use [code]index[/code] to access the specified texture.

<method name="get_mode" qualifiers="const">
<return type="int" enum="Shader.Mode" />
<description>
Returns the shader mode for the shader, either [constant MODE_CANVAS_ITEM], [constant MODE_SPATIAL] or [constant MODE_PARTICLES].

<method name="has_param" qualifiers="const">
<return type="bool" />
<argument index="0" name="name" type="StringName" />
<description>
Returns [code]true[/code] if the shader has this param defined as a uniform in its code.
[b]Note:[/b] [code]param[/code] must match the name of the uniform in the code exactly.

<description>
Sets the default texture to be used with a texture uniform. The default is used if a texture is not set in the [ShaderMaterial].
[b]Note:[/b] [code]param[/code] must match the name of the uniform in the code exactly.
[b]Note:[/b] If the sampler array is used use [code]index[/code] to access the specified texture.
