This makes it possible to view far away objects without
having to tweak any settings. This results in a more usable
editor when working on large-scale levels.
This change should have no impact on performance, but note that
Z-fighting will be visible at a distance. This can be made less
visible by increasing the Znear value (however, doing so will cause
nearby surfaces to disappear).
This change was also applied to the editor, but it will only
apply to newly created scenes.
This also changes the default camera settings in the glTF importer
to match the Camera node's defaults.
A vertical FOV of 75 degrees is roughly equivalent to a 91 degree
horizontal FOV on a 4:3 display (~107.51 degrees on 16:9),
which is close to the typical default FOV used in PC games.
Note that this doesn't apply to the in-editor camera which keeps its
FOV to 70. This is because it doesn't display in fullscreen;
its viewport only displays in the center of the editor (roughly).
This means the viewport won't cover the viewer's eyes as much. Therefore,
the editor camera FOV should be slightly lower to account for this.
Since this changes the default value, this may break existing projects
slightly.
For the record, this was already done in
https://github.com/godotengine/godot-demo-projects/pull/260
for the official demo projects.
