UDP sockets can be "connected" to filter packets from a specific source.
In case of a bound socket (e.g. server), a new socket can be created on
the same address/port that will receive all packets that are not
filtered by a more specific socket (e.g. the previously connect socket).
This way, a UDPServer can listen to new packets, and return a new
PacketPeerUDP when receiving one, knowing that is a "new client".
It was added for 3.2 in #27485 to preserve backwards compatibility,
but we can now remove it.
It is still needed in MultiplayerAPI as it's the only way to control
it for the internal put_var calls.
- Now is sent the method ID rather the full function name.
- The passed IDs (Node and Method) are compressed so to use less possible space.
- The variant (INT and BOOL) is now encoded and compressed so to use much less data.
- Optimized RPCMode retrieval for GDScript functions.
- Added checksum to assert the methods are the same across peers.
This work has been kindly sponsored by IMVU.
Used to allocate in stack (via alloca) which causes crashes when trying
to encode big variables.
The buffer grows as needed up to `encode_buffer_max_size` (which is
8MiB by default) and always in power of 2.
Avoids crashes on debug mode. Instead it now breaks the execution and
show the error in-editor. Will still crash on release.
Also add a similar check to Marshalls to ensure the debugger doesn't
crash when trying to serialize the invalid instance.
Unify pack file version and magic to avoid hardcoded literals.
`version.py` now always includes `patch` even for the first release in
a new stable branch (e.g. 3.2). The public name stays without the patch
number, but `Engine.get_version_info()` already included `patch == 0`,
and we can remove some extra handling of undefined `VERSION_PATCH` this
way.

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 calculation used to be wrong when exactly at a power of 2.
`nearest_shift` always return the "next" power of 2
`nearest_shift(4) == 3 # 2^3 = 8`.
On the other hand `next_power_of_2` returns the exact value if that
value is a power of 2 (i.e. `next_power_of_2(4) == 4`).
I.e. :
```
WARN_PRINT(itos(next_power_of_2(4)) + " " + itos(1 << nearest_shift(4)));
// WARNING: ... : 4 8
```
Is this by design?
Near matching was not implemented like in TranslationServer, so a
resource remapped for 'ru' (but not 'ru_RU') would not be used as
fallback if the system locale was 'ru_RU'.
Fixes#34058.
This allows setting the `read_chunk_size` of the internal HTTPClient.
This is important to reduce the allocation overhead and number of file
writes when downloading large files, allowing for better download speed.
