For textures that were imported as wrapping, the legacy renderer relied on GL repeat state being set as a once off during load, and didn't alter the GL wrapping state at runtime.
Batching was setting wrapping according to the CANVAS_RECT_TILE flag on rects, however this reset GL wrapping to clamp after use, which was conflicting with later drawcalls that relied on the default wrapping being preserved.
In this PR we only set the wrapping in GL if the texture has not been imported with wrapping. This duplicates the logic in the legacy renderer and solves the state bug.
Using the operator += in a shader is classified as an 'assign', and so is classified as a write rather than a read. This means that we need to prevent vertex baking on either a write or read (i.e. on usage), rather than just on reads.
The old logic was incorrect, the first item with lights would prevent joining the next item in case it didn't have lights. Now the check is deferred so that items without lights check to see if the previous item had lights, and if so they prevent a join.
Configured for a max line length of 120 characters.
psf/black is very opinionated and purposely doesn't leave much room for
configuration. The output is mostly OK so that should be fine for us,
but some things worth noting:
- Manually wrapped strings will be reflowed, so by using a line length
of 120 for the sake of preserving readability for our long command
calls, it also means that some manually wrapped strings are back on
the same line and should be manually merged again.
- Code generators using string concatenation extensively look awful,
since black puts each operand on a single line. We need to refactor
these generators to use more pythonic string formatting, for which
many options are available (`%`, `format` or f-strings).
- CI checks and a pre-commit hook will be added to ensure that future
buildsystem changes are well-formatted.

Scaling tilemaps can cause border artifacts around the edges of tiles. This has been traced to precision issues in the GPU. This PR adds an adjustment to allow a minor contraction of the UVs of rects in order to compensate for the incorrect classification of texels across the UV border.
As it now seems like we will soon have GLES3 batching working using the same intermediate layer as GLES2, it makes more sense to reuse the same batching settings for both renderers rather than duplicate project settings for GLES2 and GLES3.
Builtins that should prevent baking colors and vertex positions were incorrectly only active in shaders that were not unshaded. This was a terminology misunderstanding - unshaded materials can still use shaders so should have the same test to prevent baking.
Each driver used to define the (same) project settings value, but the
setting names are not driver specific. Ovverriding is still possible via
platform tags.

The behaviour of TYPE_POLYLINE appeared incorrect in GLES2, and inconsistent with GLES3 and the docs, which state that draw_polyline 'Draws interconnected line segments'. Also when drawing with triangles GLES2 draws interconnected segments.
This PR simply changes the primitive from GL_LINES to GL_LINE_STRIP as in GLES3.
Writing to COLOR in a custom shader can result in incorrect results if colors are baked (vertex color and modulate). This PR prevents baking with COLOR output, except under the special circumstances that final modulate is (1, 1, 1, 1), in which case the result will be correct. This should still allow color baking in many scenarios with custom shaders.
In addition to prevent item joins when VERTEX reads are present in a custom shader, it is also necessary to prevent baking extra matrices (extra transforms) WITHIN items, because these can also report incorrect results.
In situations where custom canvas shaders read VERTEX values, they could read incorrect global positions rather than local positions where batching had baked item transforms. This PR prevents joining items that read VERTEX built in in shaders, and thus prevents this situation arising (as unjoined items will not bake transforms).
Affects per-pixel transparency
The current method renders to the screen by copying the GLES output to a
DIB for transparency using the CPU instead of rendering directly to the
window via the GPU. This is slower and also forces the window to be borderless
as WS_EX_LAYERED affects the non-client region as well.
This change uses DWMEnableBlurBehindWindow which allows using the standard
glClearColor() background alpha and is also performed through the GPU,
eliminating CPU bottlenecks
There was a bug in the initial logic for item reordering, whereby it would check for overlaps between the mover (item being moved back) and sandwiched items, but there was no check for overlaps between the movee (item moved forward) and the sandwich items. This extra check is now done.
Also a minor addition to the diagnose frame info (godot texture ID).
It seems that particles (and some other features) do not work correctly on iOS in GLES2 because either many of the devices do not support half float compression, or the GL constant used to reference it from Godot is incorrect.
This PR adds a project setting in rendering/gles2/ to disable half-float compression on iOS.
Adding the ability to access MODULATE in the shader breaks when final_modulate is baked into vertex colors (this is a technique used to batch together different colored items). This PR prevents baking vertex colors when MODULATE is detected in the shader.
It also prevents baking when COLOR is read in canvas shaders, which could currently produce the wrong result in the shader if colors were baked. It does not prevent baking if COLOR is only written, which happens in most shaders, and will operate correctly without baking.
Although 2D draws in painters order with strict ordering, in certain circumstances items can be reordered to increase batching / decrease state changes, without affecting the end result. This can be determined by an overlap test.
In situation with item:
A-B-A
providing the third item does not overlap the second, they can be reordered:
A-A-B
Items already contain an AABB which can be used for this overlap test.
1)
To utilise this, I have implemented item reordering (only for single rects for now), with the lookahead adjustable in project settings. This can increase performance in situations where items may not be grouped in the scene tree by texture. It can also be switched off (by setting lookahead to 0).
2)
This same trick can be used to help join items that are lit. Lit items previously would prevent joining completely, thus missing out on performance gains other than multi-command items such as tilemaps.
In this PR, lights are assigned as bits in a bitfield (up to 64, the optimization is disabled above this), and on each try_item (for joining), the bitfield for lights and shadows is constructed and compared with the previous items. If these match the 2 items can potentially be joined. However, this can only be done without changing the rendered result if an overlap test is successful.
This overlap test can be adjusted to join items up to a specific number of item references, selectable in project settings, or turned off.
3)
The legacy uniform single rect drawing routine seems to have been identified as the source of flicker, particularly on nvidia. However, it can also be up to 2x as fast. Because of the speed the batching contains a fallback where it can use the legacy single rect method, but I have now added a project setting to make this switchable. In most cases with batching it should not be necessary (as single rects are drawn less frequently) and thus the flickering can be totally avoided.
4)
This PR also fixes a color modulate bug when drawing light passes, in certain situations (particularly custom _draw routines with multiple rects).
5)
This PR also fixes#38291, a bug in the legacy renderer where light passes could draw rects in wrong position.
- Resurrect it for GL ES 2
- Apply roll over with `fmod()` instead of resetting it to 0
- Expose the setting from the `VisualServer`, since it does not belong in any specific rasterizer
This should make headless exporting work in projects using textures
in any format.
Error messages should no longer appear when running a project
that used image formats that were previously not present in the list.

When reading SCREEN_TEXTURE in a shader, this previously only worked succesfully for the first read of the screen, because state.canvas_texscreen_used was never getting reset. This PR resets state.canvas_texscreen_used at the beginning of each joined item, so that further screen reads can happen.
Joining items across z_indices can interfere with light culling for lights which only affect certain z ranges. This PR disables joining across z_indices when lights are present, except specifically for lights with both z_min set to the global minimum (-4096) and z_max set to the global maximum (4096).
In addition, the z_index is now stored on the joined_item for accurate light culling. The z_index is also displayed in frame diagnostics.
In rare circumstances default batches were being joined incorrectly, causing visual regressions. This logic has been fixed.
In addition slightly more output information has been added to frame diagnosis mode.
Batching across z_index layers was not preserving the batch_break flag, which determines whether to not join the previous item. This is fixed by storing the flag in RenderItemState and preserving it across canvas_render_items calls.
Added project setting to enable / disable print frame diagnostics every 10 seconds. This prints out a list of batches and info, which is useful to optimize games and identify performance problems.
This adds 2 new values (items and draw calls) to the performance monitor in a '2d' section, rather than reusing the 3d values in the 'raster' section.
This makes it far easier to optimize games to minimize drawcalls.
Defers sending 'transform' commands within a RasterizerCanvas::Item until they are needed for default batches. Instead locally caches the extra matrix and applies it using software transform, preventing unnecessary batch breaks.
The logic is relatively complex, and the whole 'extra matrix' of the legacy renderer in addition to the final_transform is not ideal. However this is required to accelerate some user drawing techniques, and later the lines in the IDE.
Extra functions canvas_render_items_begin and canvas_render_items_end are added to RasterizerCanvas, with noop stubs for non-GLES2 renderers. This enables batching to be spready over multiple z_indices, and multiple calls to canvas_render_items.
It does this by only performing item joining within canvas_render_items, and deferring rendering until canvas_render_items_end().
Determined that a large reason for the decrease in performance in unbatchable scenes was due to the new routine being analogous to the 'nvidia workaround' code, that is about half the speed. So this simply uses the old routine in the case of single unbatchable rects. Hopefully we will be able to remove the old path at a later stage.
Where the final_modulate color varies between render_items this can prevent batching. This PR solves this by baking final_modulate into the vertex colors, and setting the uniform 'final_modulate' to white, and allowing the joining of items that have different final_modulate values. The previous batching system can then cope with vertex color changes as normal.
2d rendering is currently bottlenecked by drawing primitives one at a time, limiting OpenGL efficiency. This PR batches primitives and renders in fewer drawcalls, resulting in significant performance improvements. This also speeds up text rendering.
This PR batches across canvas items as well as within items.
The code dynamically chooses between a vertex format with and without color, depending on the input data for a frame, in order to optimize throughput and maximize batch size. It also adds an option to use glScissor to reduce fillrate in light passes.
Namely, move the drive dropdown to just the left of the path text box and don't include the former
in the latter.
This improves the UX on Windows.
In the UNIX case, since its concept of drives is (ab)used to provide shortcuts to useful paths, its
dropdown is kept at the original location.

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.

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.
The new 'split_libmodules=yes' option is useful to work around linker
command line size limitations when linking a huge number of objects.
We're currently over 64k chars when linking libmodules.a on Windows
with MinGW, which triggers issues as seen in #30892.
Even on Linux, we can also reach linker command line size limitations
by adding more custom modules.
We force this option to True for MinGW on Windows, which fixes#30892.
Additional changes to lib splitting:
- Fix linking of the split module libs with interdependent symbols,
hacking our way into LINKCOM and SHLINKCOM to set the `--start-group`
and `--end-group` flags.
- Fix Python 3 compatibility in `methods.split_lib()`.
- Drop seemingly obsolete condition for 'msys' on 'posix'.
- Drop the unnecessary 'split_drivers' as the drivers lib is no longer
too big since we moved all thirdparty builds to modules.

This changes the code path so that `glRenderBufferStorage*` always uses
values appropriate for renderbuffers and `glTexImage2D` never uses an
internalformat meant for buffers.
Fixes#33825.
As discussed in #32657, this can't be done here as lines can be used
with a canvas scale, and this breaks them.
A suggestion is to do the pixel shifting at matrix level instead.
Fixes#33393.
Fixes#33421.
When rendering to an external texture and MSAA was active (as happened
in the Oculus Mobile ARVR plugin) no MSAA was rendered as the correct
depth buffer and multisample texture target was not used.
