This PR handles the smoothstep degenerate case where the range is empty.

It also updates the documentation to describe positive and negative ranges.

Returns the result of smoothly interpolating the value of [param x] between [code]0[/code] and [code]1[/code], based on the where [param x] lies with respect to the edges [param from] and [param to].
The return value is [code]0[/code] if [code]x &lt;= from[/code], and [code]1[/code] if [code]x &gt;= to[/code]. If [param x] lies between [param from] and [param to], the returned value follows an S-shaped curve that maps [param x] between [code]0[/code] and [code]1[/code].
Returns a smooth cubic Hermite interpolation between [code]0[/code] and [code]1[/code].
For positive ranges (when [code]from &lt;= to[/code]) the return value is [code]0[/code] when [code]x &lt;= from[/code], and [code]1[/code] when [code]x &gt;= to[/code]. If [param x] lies between [param from] and [param to], the return value follows an S-shaped curve that smoothly transitions from [code]0[/code] to [code]1[/code].
For negative ranges (when [code]from &gt; to[/code]) the function is mirrored and returns [code]1[/code] when [code]x &lt;= to[/code] and [code]0[/code] when [code]x &gt;= from[/code].
This S-shaped curve is the cubic Hermite interpolator, given by [code]f(y) = 3*y^2 - 2*y^3[/code] where [code]y = (x-from) / (to-from)[/code].

Compared to [method ease] with a curve value of [code]-1.6521[/code], [method smoothstep] returns the smoothest possible curve with no sudden changes in the derivative. If you need to perform more advanced transitions, use [Tween] or [AnimationPlayer].
