Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
A big refactor to the WebRTC module. API is now considered quite stable.
Highlights:
- Renamed `WebRTCPeer` to `WebRTCPeerConnection`.
- `WebRTCPeerConnection` no longer act as `PacketPeer`, it only handle the connection itself (a bit like `TCP_Server`)
- Added new `WebRTCDataChannel` class which inherits from `PacketPeer` to handle data transfer.
- Add `WebRTCPeerConnection.initialize` method to create a new connection with the desired configuration provided as dictionary ([see MDN docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/RTCPeerConnection/RTCPeerConnection#RTCConfiguration_dictionary)).
- Add `WebRTCPeerConnection.create_data_channel` method to create a data channel for the given connection. The connection must be in `STATE_NEW` as specified by the standard ([see MDN docs for options](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/RTCPeerConnection/createDataChannel#RTCDataChannelInit_dictionary)).
- Add a `data_channel_received` signal to `WebRTCPeerConnection` for in-band (not negotiated) channels.
- Renamed `WebRTCPeerConnection` `offer_created` signal to `session_description_created`.
- Renamed `WebRTCPeerConnection` `new_ice_candidate` signal to `ice_candidate_created`
