671f2aca29 Document EditorExportPlatform
This class exposes no functionality to scripting itself, but is used by EditorExportPlugins.
Internally, it is what does the actual exporting of projects.

ef17c4668a Add support for scene/resource customization in export plugins
EditorExportPlugin adds a set of callbacks to allow customizing scenes, resources or subresources in all files exported:
* Can take scene files, resource files and subresources in all of them.
* Uses a cache for the converted files if nothing changes, so this work only happens if a file is modified.
* Uses hashing to differentiate export configuration caches.
* Removed the previous conversion code to binary, as this one uses existing stuff.

This API is useful in several scenarios:
* Needed by the "server" export platform to get rid of textures, meshes, audio, etc.
* Needed by text to binary converters.
* Needed by eventual optimizations such as shader precompiling on export, mesh merging and optimization, etc.

This is a draft, feedback is very welcome.
