Water current visuals

[dligr]

Brief Description of What This PR Does

Implements water current visuals using GPU particles. Also makes currents differ per patch and affect cells.
This PR is currently a draft because it needs some balance and visual feedback. There also seems to be a performance issue.

We are currently in feature freeze until the next release.
If your PR is not just a simple fix, then it may take until the release to get reviewed and merged.

GPU particles seems pretty bad in terms of performance in general in Godot. Might be better to switch to CPU particles but that might not also perform that well. In the worst case we need some kind of custom visuals shader on a plane to represent the currents (which kind of was my initial guess as to how to implement the visuals).

Also I won't review this until after the 0.8.1 release as I simply don't have time.

Looks great! But I think it would be good idea to add a little bit of variation in the size of these particles. And I think that the currents should stop when you pause the game

CPU particles might be unusable here, because they don't support particle shaders, which I used to apply currents to particles.

It's also possible to slightly optimize GPU particles by setting their FPS to a smaller value, but turning on interpolation, thus avoiding some calculations.
