Added support for 2D shadow casters.
*DANGER* Shaders in CanvasItem CHANGED, if you are using shader in a
CanvasItem and pull this, you will lose them. Shaders now work through a
2D material system similar to 3D. If you don't want to lose the 2D
shader code, save the shader as a .shd, then create a material in
CanvasItem and re-assign the shader.

Build System:
-Big clean up of SCons, changed how builds are done to a much cleaner method (check the Github Wiki for instructions).
-Deactivated BlackBerry10 (sorry), if no mantainer found (or BlackBerry does not send us a Passort ;), platform will be removed as we have no longer devices to test.
Engine:
-Removed deprecated object and scene format (was in there just for compatibility, not in use since a long time).
-Added ability to open scenes even if a node type was removed (will try to guess the closest type).
-Removed deprecated node types.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Huge Amount of New Stuff:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-

-Added support for Non-Square, Isometric and Hexagonal tilemaps in TileMap.
-Added Isometric Dungeon demo.
-Added simple hexagonal map demo.
-Added Truck-Town demo. Shows how most types of joints and vehicles are used. Please somebody make a nicer town, this one is too hardcore.
-Added an Object-Picking API to both RigidBody and Area! (and relevant demo)
-WorldEnvironment cleanup issues fixed (#563)
-Text Editor improvement to shift-mouse selection (#648)
-(Hopefully) fixed rare (but horrible) indexing bug in GDScript compiler (#652)
-Some changes to PhysicsBody API, renamed property "active" to "sleeping", which makes more sense
-Added add_collision_exception() API in PhysicsBody (more accessible)
-ability to select and copy in the output messages panel
- #672 (default user:// in $HOME/.godot/app_userdata (linux/osx) and $APPDATA/Godot/app_userdata (Windows)
- #676 (draw both tiles and octants in order from top to bottom, left to right )
- #686 (unicode escape sequences work now)
- #702 (was not a bug, but a test was added to see if bodies went too far away)
-=-=-=-=-=-=
-Object Picking and orthogonal camera related functions fixed (i hope)
-Going to preview mode in the camera shows a frame with the correct game aspect ratio
-Changed Camera API and properties a little t make it more straightforward
-Fixed bug in shader compiler.
-Fixed bug in ShaderGL
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
3D Physics:
-Fixed "Bounce" parameter in 3D
-Fixed bug affecting Area (sometims it would not detect properly)
-Vehicle Body has seen heavy work
-Added Query API for doing space queries in 3D. Needs some docs though.
-Added JOINTS! Adapted Bullet Joints: and created easy gizmos for setting them up:
-PinJoint
-HingeJoint (with motor)
-SliderJoint
-ConeTwistJoint
-Generic6DOFJoint
-Added OBJECT PICKING! based on the new query API. Any physics object now (Area or Body) has the following signals and virtual functions:
-input_event (mouse or multitouch input over the body)
-mouse_enter (mouse entered the body area)
-mouse_exit (mouse exited body area)
For Area it needs to be activated manually, as it isn't by default (ray goes thru).
Other:
-Begun working on Windows 8 (RT) port. Compiles but does not work yet.
-Added TheoraPlayer library for improved to-texture and portable video support.
-Fixed a few bugs in the renderer, collada importer, collada exporter, etc.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-New Vehicle (Based on Bullet's RaycastVehicle) - Vehiclebody/VehicleWheel. Demo will come soon, old vehicle (CarBody) will go away soon too.
-A lot of fixes to the 3D physics engine
-Added KinematicBody with demo
-Fixed the space query API for 2D (demo will come soon). 3D is WIP.
-Fixed long-standing bug with body_enter/body_exit for Area and Area2D
-Performance variables now includes physics (active bodies, collision pairs and islands)
-Ability to see what's inside of instanced scenes!
-Fixed Blend Shapes (no bs+skeleton yet)
-Added an Android JavaClassWrapper singleton for using Android native classes directly from GDScript. This is very Alpha!
-=-=-=-=-=-
-Fixed small bugs all around
-Added ability to show/hide entire sections of the spatial (3D) tree
-WIP new vehicle (not ready yet) based on Bullet
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-Begin work on Navigation Meshes (simple pathfinding for now, will improve soon)
-More doc on theme overriding
-Upgraded OpenSSL to version without bugs
-Misc bugfixes
==========
-NOTIFICATION_WM_QUIT fixed on android (seems tha way this is reported changed in newer sdk)
-WIP implementation of APK Expansion APIs for publishing games larger than 50mb in Play Store
-Feaures in the new tutorials are all present in the sourcecode
-This (hopefully) should get rid of the animation list order getting corrupted
-Improved 3D Scene Importer (Skeletons, Animations and other stuff were not being merged). Anything missing?
-In code editor, the automatic syntax checker will only use file_exists() to check preload() else it might freeze the editor too much while typing if the preload is a big resource
-Fixed bugs in PolygonPathFinder, stil pending to do a node and a demo
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
-If re-importing from the "dependency changed" dialog, edited scene will keep the local changes.
-Imported scene will keep track of changes in the source asset
-Geometry changes in source geometry or nodes with a different transform will be updated.
-Materials will be kept if changed locally.
-New nodes added will be kept
-If nodes were reparented or renamed, they will still keep track
-Deleted notes will be restored, use the -noimp option to avoid this.
-In general, you can trust that if you do local modifications to the imported scene, they will not be erased after re-import.
-Erasing your changes is done by re-importing from the "Re-Import" menu, re-opening the "Import 3D Scene" dialog. This wil re-import fresh.
Overall, This should allow you to work on a scene and see changes made to 3D assets in real-time.
So Please test!!
-=-=-=-=-=-

-Improved Glow FX, many more options (three modes, Additive, Screen and SoftLight), strength and scale
-Ability for Background (image or cubemap) to send to glow buffer
-Dumb Deploy of clients now actually works in Android
-Many Many rendering fixes, 3D is much more usable now.
