Changed

Engine

• Added options for disabling RTTI and exceptions for every platform, and by default I disabled them.

Modules

• Removed all godot version support code from my modules. Along with some macros.

Branding

• Rebranded the engine. Also managed to create an icon for it.
• New default color scheme.

Internals

• On the c++ side I moved lots of includes from the headers to the cpp files to hopefully improve compile and recompile times.
• Moved the include guards to the very top of files. This can potentially speed up builds as the compiler should be able to reject headers simpler.
