It was insipred by godot 4's ProcessGroup system, however while Godot 4's implementation tries to hide threaded processing as much as possible, this implementation focuses on making it explicitly known and obvious to the user, in a (hopefully) almost bolierplate free way.
Also with the available options this node can be used for other purposes, like multi threaded cron job like method calls when paired with a Timer in manual mode.
* Node processing works on the concept of process groups.
* A node group can be inherited, run on main thread, or a sub-thread.
* Groups can be ordered.
* Process priority is now present for physics.
This is the first steps towards implementing godotengine/godot-proposals#6424.
No threading or thread guards exist yet in most of the scene code other than Node. That will have to be added later.

- Only got the smaller improvements, and the thread safety for Node and SceneTree. I'm planning to implement a similar system, but I have a different way of doing it in mind.
A common bug with using acos and asin is that input outside -1 to 1 range will result in Nan output. This can occur due to floating point error in the input.
The standard solution is to provide safe_acos function with clamped input. For Godot it may make more sense to make the standard functions safe.
`const` is used on all methods, even when they cause modification of the server. This reworks the methods of the server to only use `const` on method that don't change the state of the server.

Adds helper functions to set the links start and end position with global positions or get them as global positions.
Adds global start and end position for the navigation link to the 'link_reached' signal of NavigationAgent. That signal gets emitted when a navigation link waypoint is reached. Requires that 'owner' meta data is enabled on the NavigationAgent.

Prevents unnecessary navigation map synchronizations triggered by redundant calls to setters of e.g. region, link or map properties.

Fixes that NavigationRegion2D and TileMap debug visuals ignored more or less half the ProjectSetting. E.g. random color could not be disabled, edges did not display.

Contrary to the entire rest of the engine NavigationAgent's and NavigationLinks decided to deal with locations instead of positions.
