* This allows playing around with instances directly on the canvas instead of relying on the actions to flip or change opacity and needing to start a preview
* An object changing layer during the game is now properly moved to the layer on the other players games
* Video object can be synced as well
* Pathfinding behavior is now properly synced, allowing a smooth prediction on other players games
* Spine object is now synced as well
* This opens the path to multiple performance improvements (faster WebGL rendering, and then WebGPU rendering) as well as optimised resources loading in the future.
* Actions, conditions and expressions related to opacity, size (width/height), scale, animations and other common features are now visible only once when you search for them in actions/conditions (instead of being shown once for every type of object supporting them). This reduces the risk of confusion for new or existing users, notably when multiple versions of the same action were returned by the search and was making it difficult to choose the proper one.
* Internally, this works thanks to default, built-in behaviors that are supported by the objects.
* Tilemaps made with [LDtk](https://ldtk.io/), a modern 2D level editor, can be now used directly. Make sure to save your map made in LDtk as a JSON file, create a new Tilemap object in GDevelop and in the Tilemap field, choose the LDtk file.
* Tilesets used by the LDtk Tilemap are automatically imported in your game - you don't need to import them separately.
* For more information, read about the [Tilemap object on the wiki](https://wiki.gdevelop.io/gdevelop5/objects/tilemap).

* This allows to generate interesting visual effects, which can be controlled by events. For example, you can use an outline on an object to highlight, make the player glow when launching a spell, blur objects, etc...
* A new "effects" tab is now present in the objects editor. From there, you can add visual effects, that were already available for layers, customize them from this editor.
* Actions and conditions are available to manipulate effects and change their parameters during the game.

* This includes BBText, Text, Tilemap, Tiled Sprite, Panel Sprite and the Video objects.
* Also add support for tweening the scale of a Panel Sprite object.
* This brings various upgrades and performance improvement to the internal rendering engine used by games, both in the editor and in exported games.
* This also paves the way for adding new objects like Bitmap Text, Mesh or dynamic lights in the future.
* Huge thanks to @Quarkstar for working on this task and making most of the necessary upgrades .
* Thanks @Bouh for helping fixing/upgrading the Shape Painter object and @Silver-Streak as well as testers from the forum
Don't show the rest in changelog:
* Add a test game with all effects that can be used, to quickly verify they are working.

* Rename onOwnerRemovedFromScene to onDestroy (because it can be now called when a scene is destroyed)
* Fix it being not called when a scene is destroyed (so behavior don't get a chance to clean up what they have created)
* Fix onCreated being called before the object is fully initialized (for custom behaviors or behaviors relying on an object type)
