ced77b1e9b C#: Switch games to MSBuild Sdks and .NET Standard
Godot.NET.Sdk
-------------

Godot uses its own custom MSBuild Sdk for game
projects. This new Sdk adds its own functionality
on top of 'Microsoft.NET.Sdk'.

The new Sdk is resolved from the NuGet package.

All the default boilerplate was moved from game
projects to the Sdk. The default csproj for
game project can now be as simple as:

```
<Project Sdk="Godot.NET.Sdk/4.0.0-dev2">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>netstandard2.1</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>
</Project>
```

Source files are included by automatically so
Godot no longer needs to keep the csproj in sync
when creating new source files.

Define constants
----------------

Godot defines a list of constants for conditional
compilation. When exporting games, this list also
included engine 'features' and platform 'bits'.
There were a few problems with that:

- The 'features' constants were only defined when
  exporting games. Not when building the game for
  running in the editor player.
- If the project was built externally by an IDE,
  the constants wouldn't be defined at all.

The new Sdk assigns default values to these
constants when not built from the Godot editor,
i.e.: when built from an IDE or from the command
line. The default define constants are determined
from the system MSBuild is running on.

However, it's not possible for MSBuild to
determine the set of supported engine features.
It's also not possible to determine if a project
is being built to run on a 32-bit or 64-bit
Godot executable.

As such the 'features' and 'bits' constants had
to be removed.
The benefit of checking those at compile time
was questionable, and they can still be checked
at runtime.

The new list of define constants includes:

- GODOT
- GODOT_<PLATFORM>
  Defaults to the platform MSBuild is running on.
- GODOT_<PC/MOBILE/WEB>
- TOOLS
  When building with the 'Debug' configuration
  (editor and editor player).
- GODOT_REAL_T_IS_DOUBLE
  Not defined by default unless $(GodotRealTIsDouble)
  is overriden to be 'true'.

.NET Standard
-------------

The target framework of game projects was changed
to 'netstandard2.1'.

270af6fa08 Re-write mono module editor code in C#
Make the build system automatically build the C# Api assemblies to be shipped with the editor.
Make the editor, editor player and debug export templates use Api assemblies built with debug symbols.
Always run MSBuild to build the editor tools and Api assemblies when building Godot.
Several bugs fixed related to assembly hot reloading and restoring state.
Fix StringExtensions internal calls not being registered correctly, resulting in MissingMethodException.
