Arcade glider flight model with stall

Fly a Node3D like a glider: a sink-rate polar with a best glide speed, speed traded against height, banked turns at the coordinated-turn rate, auto-levelling wings and a stall with nose drop and recovery.

Limits to consider

Arcade model, not physically based aerodynamics: no wind, thermals, collisions, angle of attack or side slip. Moves the node directly (not a physics body). Verified with Godot 4.7.2 headless; written against the Godot 4.3 API.
