* Fixed subgizmo editing on scaled nodes.
* Added more clarifications on the coordinate space of subgizmos.
* Given input priority to the transform gizmo over subgizmo selection.
* Added an extra stage before compiling shader, which is generating a binary blob.
* On Vulkan, this allows caching the SPIRV reflection information, which is expensive to parse.
* On other (future) RenderingDevices, it allows caching converted binary data, such as DXIL or MSL.
This PR makes the shader cache include the reflection information, hence editor startup times are significantly improved.
I tested this well and it appears to work, and I added a lot of consistency checks, but because it includes writing and reading binary information, rare bugs may pop up, so be aware.
There was not much of a choice for storing the reflection information, given shaders can be a lot, take a lot of space and take time to parse.
A Camera3D node still has to be selected to initially enable camera
preview, but another node can then be selected and the preview can
be disabled by pressing the shortcut key again.

- Use background and line colors that match better with the
rest of the editor.
- Use translucent lines to make overlapping lines visible.
- Tweak the error message to mention the UV layer in question
when there is no UV for a defined layer.
* Most resource types now have unique identifiers.
* Applies to text, binary and imported resources.
* File formats reference both by text and UID (when available). UID always has priority.
* Resource UIDs are 64 bits for better compatibility with the engine.
* Can be represented and used textually, example `uuid://dapwmgsmnl28u`.
* A special binary cache file is used and exported, containing the mappings.
Example of how it looks:
```GDScript
[gd_scene load_steps=2 format=3 uid="uid://dw86wq31afig2"]
[ext_resource type="PackedScene" uid="uid://bt36ojelx8q6c" path="res://subscene.scn" id="1_t56hs"]
```
GDScript, shaders and other special resource files can't currently provide UIDs, but this should be doable with special keywords on the files.
This will be reserved for future PRs.
- Makes tips clearer and more consistent.
- Removes outdated "shift+v" that doesn't work
- Adds Ctrl+RMB for adding nodes at position
- Removes tip for non-existent Alt+Drag in 3D select tool
* Clean-up of node_3d_editor_plugin.{h,cpp}: removed unused code, fixed some bugs.
* Moved node_3d_editor_gizmos.{h,cpp} to editor/plugins.
* Added support for multiple gizmos per node. This means custom gizmos will no longer override the built-in ones and that multiple gizmos can be used in more complex nodes.
* Added support for handle IDs. When adding handles to a gizmo, an ID can be specified for each one, making it easier to work with gizmos that have a variable number of handles.
* Added support for subgizmos, selectable elements that can be transformed without needing a node of their own. By overriding _subgizmo_intersect_frustum() and/or _subgizmo_intersect_ray() gizmos can define which subgizmos should be selected on a region or click selection. Subgizmo transformations are applied using get/set/commit virtual methods, similar to how handles work.
`localhost` was removed as it won't work out of the box. It can be added
by the user if they're working on the asset library itself.
This won't affect existing installations due to how the editor settings
are stored, but existing installations will keep working fine.
* Friendlier with version control.
* Generates pseudo unique IDs, to minimize conflicts when merging, but still
user readable (so, not UUID).
* Eventually will also allow to have more precisely named sub-resources in
imported files.
* This will allow better reloading on changes (including resources already
loaded) as well as better keeping track of changes on the DCC.
* Keeps backward compatibility with the old formats.
* Binary and text format version incremented to mark breakage in forward
compatibility.
* Shadow quality settings now specialization constant.
* Decal and light projector filters can be set.
* Changing those settings forces re-creation of the pipelines.
These changes should help improve performance related to shadow mapping, and allows improving performance by sacrificing decal and light projector quality.
* Added a new macro SNAME() that constructs and caches a local stringname.
* Subsequent usages use the cached version.
* Since these use a global static variable, a second refcounter of static usages need to be kept for cleanup time.
* Replaced all theme usages by this new macro.
* Replace all signal emission usages by this new macro.
* Replace all call_deferred usages by this new macro.
This is part of ongoing work to optimize GUI and the editor.
- Allow some tolerance when clicking the plane move/scale,
even if the click is actually slightly outside the plane
(similar to Blender).
- Make the rotate manipulation circles visually thinner to be
less distracting.
- Make the hovered color less saturated to be more distinguishable
from the non-hovered state.
- Don't set brightness above 1.0 to prevent the gizmo from glowing
when hovered.
* It seems both cell_selected and multi_selected were being triggered,
* This caused inspector updating twice.
* cell_selected connection and callback were removed.
This may be a bug in Godot 3.x too, recommend checking.
* LineEdit popups created on demand.
* TextEdit popups created on demand.
* SpinSlider popups created on demand.
* ResourcePicker popups created on demand.
Improves editor responsiveness.
