3 options are available:
- Light and Sky (default)
- Light Only (new)
- Sky Only (equivalent to `use_in_sky_only = true`)

This can be used to fade lights and their shadows in the distance,
similar to Decal nodes. This can bring significant performance
improvements, especially for lights with shadows enabled and when
using higher-than-default shadow quality settings.
While lights can be smoothly faded out over distance, shadows are
currently "all or nothing" since per-light shadow color is no longer
customizable in the Vulkan renderer. This may result in noticeable
pop-in when leaving the shadow cutoff distance, but depending on the
scene, it may not always be that noticeable.
* Adds optional vec4 USERDATA1 .. USERDATA6 to particles, allowing to store custom data.
* This data is allocated on demand, so shaders that do not use it do not cost more.
16-bit shadow atlases are already the default in the project settings,
but low-level methods used 24-bit shadows by default.
This makes low-level methods more consistent with the default project
settings to avoid accidental performance issues when users change
the shadow size at run-time.
This provides more flexibility between performance and quality
adjustments, especially when using SDFGI for small-scale levels
(which can be useful for procedurally generated scenes).
On the only platform where PVRTC is supported (iOS),
ETC2 generally supersedes PVRTC in every possible way. The increased
memory usage is not really a problem thanks to modern iOS' devices
processing power being higher than its Android counterparts.
Using codespell 2.1.0.

Applying overlay materials into multi-surface meshes currently
requires adding a next pass material to all the surfaces, which
might be cumbersome when the material is to be applied to a range
of different geometries. This also makes it not trivial to use
AnimationPlayer to control the material in case of visual effects.
The material_override property is not an option as it works
replacing the active material for the surfaces, not adding a new pass.
This commit adds the material_overlay property to GeometryInstance3D
(and therefore MeshInstance3D), having the same reach as
material_override (that is, all surfaces) but adding a new material
pass on top of the active materials, instead of replacing them.
This can be used to distinguish between integrated, dedicated, virtual
and software-emulated GPUs. This in turn can be used to automatically
adjust graphics settings, or warn users about features that may run
slowly on their hardware.
Note, the editor build requires the mbedtls module to be manually
enabled, as it is currently needed as a ResourceUID dependency.
This will need to be addressed in a separate PR.
- Rename OpenGL to GLES3 in the source code per community feedback.
- The renderer is still exposed as "OpenGL 3" to the user.
- Hide renderer selection dropdown until OpenGL support is more mature.
- The renderer can still be changed in the Project Settings or using
the `--rendering-driver opengl` command line argument.
- Remove commented out exporter code.
- Remove some OpenGL/DisplayServer-related debugging prints.
Due to the port to Vulkan and complete redesign of the rendering backend,
the `drivers/gles3` code is no longer usable in this state and is not
planned to be ported to the new architecture.
The GLES2 backend is kept (while still disabled and non-working) as it
will eventually be ported to serve as the low-end renderer for Godot 4.0.
Some GLES3 features might be selectively ported to the updated GLES2
backend if there's a need for them, and extensions we can use for that.
So long, OpenGL driver bugs!
Lots of internal API changes and some docstrings were lost in the conversion.
I manually salvaged many of them but for all the rendering-related ones, an
additional pass is needed.
Added missing enum bindings in BaseMaterial3D and VisualServer.
-Texture renamed to Texture2D
-TextureLayered as base now inherits 2Darray, cubemap and cubemap array
-Removed all references to flags in textures (they will go in the shader)
-Texture3D gone for now (will come back later done properly)
-Create base rasterizer for RenderDevice, RasterizerRD
Fixes#26637.
Fixes#19900.
The viewport_size returned by get_viewport_size was previously incorrect, being half the correct value. The function is renamed to get_viewport_half_extents, and now returns a Vector2.
Code which called this function has also been modified accordingly.
This PR also fixes shadow culling when using ortho cameras, because the correct input for CameraMatrix::set_orthogonal should be the full HEIGHT from get_viewport_half_extents, and not half the width.
It also fixes state.ubo_data.viewport_size in rasterizer_scene_gles3.cpp to be the width and the height of the viewport in pixels as stated in the documentation, rather than the current value which is half the viewport extents in worldspace, presumed to be a bug.
All the calculations leading up to `mipLevel` are only relevant for
Panorama mode. Similarly, the `source_resolution` uniform is only
needed for that mode.

Some cases were not handled properly for Polygon2D after making changes in common code to fix Line2D antialiasing. Added an option for drawing polygons to differentiate the two use cases.
Fixes#34568
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.
