Concerns recent changes:

These have the potential to break existing code that relies on the old workflow. As such, we believe it's more responsible to postpone their introduction to the next minor version, to keep patch versions safe. Thanks a lot to @Yarwin and @TitanNano for bringing this up.

This PR uses a strategy similar to #1383, where the behavior stays the same, but the new one is available behind upcoming-editor-placeholders. The library also tries to detect code relying on the old behavior and emit a warning in those cases. CI is split between old + new for maximum coverage.

In godot-rust v0.6, this feature will become the default and the old behavior is phased out.
