- Bind MAX_MESH_SURFACES constant in RenderingServer::_bind_methods()
- Add MAX_MESH_SURFACES constant to RenderingServer class documentation
- Reference the constant RenderingServer.MAX_MESH_SURFACES in the description of Mesh class documentation
Using 2.2.7.dev217+g10c2abcf.
Had to add `colour` to the ignore list as we used it as an alias/keyword for the
documentation of color-related APIs.
Also ignore recommendations to change `thirdparty` to either `third-party` or
`third party`, which are correct but we use the former fairly consistently.
Adds fixed timestep interpolation to the rendering server (2D only).
Switchable on and off with a project setting (default is off).

- Supporting custom AABB on the MultiMesh resource itself allows us to prevent costly runtime AABB recalculations.
- Should also help improve CPU Particle performance.
- Mention the Use Nearest Mipmap Filter project setting.
- Fix nearest mipmap claiming to always use bilinear filtering
(it uses trilinear filtering by default, like linear mipmap).
This allows Godot to automatically compress meshes to save a lot of bandwidth.
In general, this requires no interaction from the user and should result in
no noticable quality loss.
This scheme is not backwards compatible, so we have provided an upgrade
mechanism, and a mesh versioning mechanism.
Existing meshes can still be used as a result, but users can get a
performance boost by reimporting assets.
Introduces support for FSR2 as a new upscaler option available from the project settings. Also introduces an specific render list for surfaces that require motion and the ability to derive motion vectors from depth buffer and camera motion.
Firefox will always report the user's GPU as a GeForce GTX 980 in
an attempt to make fingerprinting more difficult.
This is not the case in Chromium-based browsers though.
This is needed to allow 2D to fully make use of 3D effects (e.g. glow), and can be used to substantially improve quality of 2D rendering at the cost of performance
Additionally, the 2D rendering pipeline is done in linear space (we skip linear_to_srgb conversion in 3D tonemapping) so the entire Viewport can be kept linear.
This is necessary for proper HDR screen support in the future.
As more users use compute in Godot 4, the way they do is most likely incompatible when running
on separate threads and will start erroring soon as we improve the thread safety of the render thread.
To properly run code on the render thread, this function was added. Use like this:
```GDScript
func initialize_compute_code():
....
func update_compute_code(custom_data):
...
func _ready():
RenderingServer.call_on_render_thread( initialize_compute_code )
func _process():
RenderingServer.call_on_render_thread( update_compute_code.bind(with_data) )
```
We don't use that info for anything, and it generates unnecessary diffs
every time we bump the minor version (and CI failures if we forget to
sync some files from opt-in modules (mono, text_server_fb).
