As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Backported from #70885.
Now the process uses a Map to lookup node pointers instead of iterating
over all modified node paths in a list and comparing them for each
property to check.
The process also avoids checking properties with empty node paths and
does an early exit on deleted nodes to avoid checking the node and its
descendants.
Also made a minor change in NodePath::rel_path_to() to avoid resizing a
Vector many times for long paths (with copy-on-write each time). Now
it's down to 2 resize calls in any case.
Fix more cases of node path needing an update when nodes are renamed or
moved in the editor.
Built-in node properties:
Before, node paths were checked only for script export variables. Now
all properties are checked from the node, which includes built-in node
properties.
Allows proper node path updates for nodes like remote transform, physics
joints, etc.
Arrays and dictionaries:
Node paths nested in array and dictionary properties are now also
updated in the editor.
Also update the documentation to be clear about node path update in the
editor and at runtime.

(cherry picked from commit 3e4e530523)
Fixes#48514 by moving the visibility of these buttons into their own if statement that depends on if scene tree editing is allowed. Previously it was under the script editing setting which is unexpected as it works with nodes and the scene tree.
