Many contributors (me included) did not fully understand what CCFLAGS,
CXXFLAGS and CPPFLAGS refer to exactly, and were thus not using them
in the way they are intended to be.
As per the SCons manual: https://www.scons.org/doc/HTML/scons-user/apa.html
- CCFLAGS: General options that are passed to the C and C++ compilers.
- CFLAGS: General options that are passed to the C compiler (C only;
not C++).
- CXXFLAGS: General options that are passed to the C++ compiler. By
default, this includes the value of $CCFLAGS, so that setting
$CCFLAGS affects both C and C++ compilation.
- CPPFLAGS: User-specified C preprocessor options. These will be
included in any command that uses the C preprocessor, including not
just compilation of C and C++ source files [...], but also [...]
Fortran [...] and [...] assembly language source file[s].
TL;DR: Compiler options go to CCFLAGS, unless they must be restricted
to either C (CFLAGS) or C++ (CXXFLAGS). Preprocessor defines go to
CPPFLAGS.
It seems to stay compatible with formatting done by clang-format 6.0 and 7.0,
so contributors can keep using those versions for now (they will not undo those
changes).
Godot supports many different compilers and for production releases we
have to support 3 currently: GCC8, Clang6, and MSVC2017. These compilers
all do slightly different things with -ffast-math and it is causing
issues now. See #24841, #24540, #10758, #10070. And probably other
complaints about physics differences between release and release_debug
builds.
I've done some performance comparisons on Linux x86_64. All tests are
ran 20 times.

I have also looked at FPS numbers for tps-demo, 3d platformer, 2d
platformer, and sponza and could not find any measurable difference.
I believe that given the issues and oft-reported (physics) glitches on
release builds I believe that the couple of percent of tight-loop
floating point performance regression is well worth it.
This fixes#24540 and fixes#24841

Had to split `core/io/zip_io.h` into header and .cpp file without 'static' keyword.
Not fixed yet (static definition in header used in some files but not all):
```

```
Also fixed a couple other warnings missed in previous commits.
Fixes GCC 5 warnings of the form:
core/io/http_client.cpp:288:9: warning: enumeration value 'STATUS_SSL_HANDSHAKE_ERROR' not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
core/io/marshalls.cpp:806:9: warning: enumeration value 'AABB' not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
Those can be trivial cases where adding a default fallback is the solution,
or more complex issues/hidden bugs where missed values are actually meant
to be handled.
Also turn off -Wsign-compare warnings in the future, we do not consider them important.

This allows more consistency in the manner we include core headers,
where previously there would be a mix of absolute, relative and
include path-dependent includes.
Using `misc/scripts/fix_headers.py` on all Godot files.
Some missing header guards were added, and the header inclusion order
was fixed in the Bullet module.
Apparently -ffast-math generates incorrect code with recent versions of
GCC and Clang. The manual page for GCC warns about this possibility.
In my tests it doesn't actually appear to be measurably slower in this
case, and this is used in a batch process so it seems safe to disable
this.
This fixes#10758 and fixes#10070
