Clarify usage of AnimationPlayer with AnimationTree and fill in empty method descriptions

Add clarification to docs to explain that when an `AnimationPlayer`
object is paired with an `AnimationTree`, several properties and
methods exposed by the `AnimationPlayer` class may not work as expected.
The issues occur because an `AnimationTree` runs independently, and
uses its member `AnimationPlayer* player` primarily for its
`Map<StringName, AnimationData> animation_set`.

Added descriptions for `root_motion_track` and `get_root_motion_transform`.

A node to be used for advanced animation transitions in an [AnimationPlayer]. A node to be used for advanced animation transitions in an [AnimationPlayer].
</brief_description> </brief_description>
<description> <description>
Note: When linked with an [AnimationPlayer], several properties and methods of the corresponding [AnimationPlayer] will not function as expected. Playback and transitions should be handled using only the [AnimationTree] and its constituent [AnimationNode](s). The [AnimationPlayer] node should be used solely for adding, deleting, and editing animations.

The path to the Animation track used for root motion. Paths must be valid scene-tree paths to a node, and must be specified starting from the parent node of the node that will reproduce the animation. To specify a track that controls properties or bones, append its name after the path, separated by [code]":"[/code]. For example, [code]"character/skeleton:ankle"[/code] or [code]"character/mesh:transform/local"[/code].
If the track has type [constant Animation.TYPE_TRANSFORM], the transformation will be cancelled visually, and the animation will appear to stay in place.
