The `env.disabled_modules` and `methods.disable_module` weren't used anywhere
so the first one was repurposed and the second just deleted

Prevents cache issues by not purging cache before starting a build.
Splits cache purge related code from progress code and delays the purge
until after final build is done.
Previously, all of the code generation routines would just needlessly
write the same files over and over, even when not needed.
This became a problem with the advent of the experimental ninja backend
for SCons, which can be trivially enabled with a few lines of code and
relies on timestamp changes, making it thus impractical.
VS doesn't handle string parsing very well, so having all the files in one
property slows down VS a lot when loading the projects. Splitting the files
up into per-directory properties brings down project processing times from
20 seconds to 1 second (on my machine).
This can be used to quickly see how recent a development build is,
without having to look up the commit date manually.
When juggling around with various builds (e.g. for benchmarking),
this can also be used to ensure that you're actually running the
binary you intended to run.
The date stored is the date of the Git commit that is built, not
the current date at the time of building the binary. This ensures
binaries can remain reproducible.
The version timestamp can be accessed using the `timestamp` key
of the `Engine.get_version_info()` return value.
Users can add additional VS project configurations with their own
custom settings, but to support this workflow, we can't rely directly
on $(Platform) and $(Configuration), because VS needs those to be
both unique Configuration|Platform combos, and we need to allow for
different combos of Configuration|Platform to point to the same
scons build configuration.
GodotPlatform and GodotConfiguration properties lets us decouple from
the magic VS properties that we don't control, so users can add
however many Platform|Configuration combos they want and still
point to a specific GodotPlatform|GodotConfiguration build config.
Make sure we include any user-specified project settings in our
project definitions, this way users can customize their VS
environment to more closely match what they're building for, and
they better can control debugging and deployment from VS.
Add support for setting VS-only compiler defines, include paths, and
additional linker options, as a hint to VS to use when loading projects
and parsing code. VS would usually know these on non nmake projects,
but for nmake projects we have to tell it about any implicit information
that the compiler has, so it can resolve symbols in the editor.
Custom Visual Studio project generation logic that supports any platform that has a msvs.py
script, so Visual Studio can be used to run scons for any platform, with the right defines per target.
Invoked with `scons vsproj=yes`
To generate build configuration files for all platforms+targets+arch combinations, users should call
```
scons vsproj=yes platform=XXX target=YYY [other build flags]
```
for each combination of platform+target[+arch]. This will generate the relevant vs project files but
skip the build process, so that project files can be quickly generated without waiting for a command line
build. This lets project files be quickly generated even if there are build errors.
All possible combinations of platform+target are created in the solution file by default, but they
won't do anything until each one is set up with a scons vsproj=yes command for the respective platform
in the appropriate command line. This lets users only generate the combinations they need, and VS
won't have to parse settings for other combos.
Only platforms that opt in to vs proj generation by having a msvs.py file in the platform folder are included.
Platforms with a msvs.py file will be added to the solution, but only the current active platform+target+arch
will have a build configuration generated, because we only know what the right defines/includes/flags/etc are
on the active build target currently being processed by scons.
Platforms that don't support an editor target will have a dummy editor target that won't do anything on build,
but will have the files and configuration for the windows editor target.
To generate AND build from the command line, run
```
scons vsproj=yes vsproj_gen_only=no
```
Verbose output is meant for debugging the SCU mode itself and can be
triggered by changing the `_verbose` bool manually.
Prefix all prints with "SCU:" for context, and print the processed
folders all at once instead of when adding the sources.
This fixes multiple issues/inconsistencies around `get_compiler_version()`:
* With no shell allocated, launching the compiler could fail even
with proper paths being set.
* The return value was described as "an array of version numbers as ints",
but the function actually returned a `Dictionary` (or `None`).
* Not all calls were properly handling a `None` return value in case of errors.
On Windows this broke compiling for me since #81869 with default settings.
* Some calls defined inconsistent defaults/fallbacks (`0` or `-1`).
