The Godot Project Leadership Committe has decided to update the sponsoring
tiers so that the Platinum Sponsorship no longer includes a logo on the
editor splash screen.
This lets us reclaim the editor splash screen space for community-related
content instead of sponsors (e.g. a different community-designed splash
screen for each stable branch?).
Also removes two Platinum Sponsors whose sponsorship has expired earlier this
year.

This PR adds a define BVH_EXPAND_LEAF_AABBS which is set, which stores expanded AABBs in the tree instead of exact AABBs.
This makes the logic less error prone when considering reciprocal collisions in the pairing, as all collision detect is now taking place between expanded AABB against expanded AABB, rather than expanded AABB against exact AABB.
The flip side of this is that the intersection tests will now be less exact when expanded margins are set.
All margins are now user customizable via project settings, and take account of collision pairing density to adjust the margin dynamically.
Settings that aren't within a subsection are difficult to reach when
other settings do have a subsection.
This also adds documentation for the project setting.
When comparing different graphics settings or optimizations,
this makes precise measurements and frametime comparisons easier.
This also makes the editor FPS display use `pad_decimals()`
for consistency with the implementation in `master`.
Async. compilation via ubershader is currently available in the scene and particles shaders only.
Bonus:
- Use `#if defined()` syntax for not true conditionals, so they don't unnecessarily take a bit in the version flagset.
- Remove unused `ENABLE_CLIP_ALPHA` from scene shader.
- Remove unused `PARTICLES_COPY` from the particles shader.
- Remove unused uniform related code.
- Shader language/compiler: use ordered hash maps for deterministic code generation (needed for caching).
this commit makes godot executable to return zero exit code
once a valid script is passed via --script during --check-only
(cherry picked from commit 75ae3164a4)
This gives visual feedback when not starting Godot from a terminal.
This could lead to confusion when placing a Godot binary within a
project folder that has no main scene defined.

If enabled, key/touch/joystick events will be flushed just before every idle and physics frame.
Enabling this can greatly improve the responsiveness to input, specially in devices that need to run multiple physics frames per each idle frame, because of not being powerful enough to run at the target frame rate.
This will only work for platforms using input buffering (regardless event accumulation). Currenly, only Android does so, but could be implemented for iOS in an upcoming PR.
Input buffering is implicitly used by event accumulation, but this commit makes it more generic so it can be enabled for other uses.
For desktop OSs it's currently not feasible given main and UI threads are the same).
When the `sync_after_draw` feature was on it was possible for the profiler's frame_time measurement to be incorrect. This fixes this problem by storing the raw measured time for use by the profiler.
Investigations have showed that a lot of the random variation in frame deltas causing glitches may be due to sampling the time at the wrong place in the game loop.
Although sampling at the start of Main::Iteration makes logical sense, the most consistent deltas may be better measured after the location likely to block at vsync - either the OpenGL draw commands or the SwapBuffers.
Here we add an experimental setting to allow syncing after the OpenGL draw section of Main::Iteration.
Frame deltas are currently measured by querying the OS timer each frame. This is subject to random error. Frame delta smoothing instead filters the delta read from the OS by replacing it with the refresh rate delta wherever possible.
This PR also contains code to estimate the refresh rate based on the input deltas, without reading the refresh rate from the host OS.
Physics FPS above 1000 cause the whole project to slow down
and are not very practical in the first place (since no CPU currently
available can keep up).

- Display the frame time in addition to FPS.
- Frame time is a more objective measurement in comparison to FPS,
but FPS is more familiar to people less acquainted with profiling.
- Rename "Game" to "Project" for the project FPS printing line.

Having to rename project settings is rare, but when it does occur it can cause user confusion. In order to make compatibility more seamless this PR introduces two new GLOBAL_DEF functions,
GLOBAL_DEF_ALIAS(new_name, old_name, default)
GLOBAL_DEF_ALIAS_RST(new_name, old_name, default)
These are the same as the existing GLOBAL_DEF functions except that if the new setting is not found, it attempts to load from the old setting name. If the old setting is found, it stores it into the new setting, and then calls the regular GLOBAL_DEF functions.
More work is needed to make sure that those options actually solve users' issues, so we prefer to remove the options for 3.2.4 and revisit for a future release.
The rendering/quality/2d section of project settings is becoming considerably expanded in 3.2.4, and arguably was not the correct place for settings that were not really to do with quality.
3.2.4 is the last sensible opportunity we will have to move these settings, as the only existing one likely to break compatibility in a small way is `pixel_snap`, and given that the whole snapping area is being overhauled we can draw attention to the fact it has changed in the release notes.
Class reference is also updated and slightly improved.
`pixel_snap` is renamed to `gpu_pixel_snap` in the project settings and code to help differentiate from CPU side transform snapping.
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.
- Based on C++11's `thread` and `thread_local`
- No more need to allocate-deallocate or check for null
- No pointer anymore, just a member variable
- Platform-specific implementations no longer needed (except for the few cases of non-portable functions)
- Simpler for `NO_THREADS`
- Thread ids are now the same across platforms (main is 1; others follow)
- Based on C++14's `shared_time_mutex`
- No more need to allocate-deallocate or check for null
- No pointer anymore, just a member variable
- Platform-specific implementations no longer needed
- Simpler for `NO_THREADS`
