Add a Viewport method to get automatically computed 2D stretch transform
`Viewport.get_stretch_transform()` returns the automatically computed 2D stretch transform. Combined with `Transform2D.get_scale()`, this is useful when using the `canvas_items` stretch mode in a project. There are many situations where knowing this factor is useful: - Divide Camera2D zoom to keep the size of the 2D game world identical regardless of the 2D scale factor (so that UI elements can still be scaled). - Make certain controls always drawn at 1:1 scale (e.g. for the crosshair in a FPS). This is done by dividing the Control node's scale by the scale factor.

+ <description>
+ Returns the automatically computed 2D stretch transform, taking the [Viewport]'s stretch settings into account. The final value is multiplied by [member Window.content_scale_factor], but only for the root viewport. If this method is called on a [SubViewport] (e.g., in a scene tree with [SubViewportContainer] and [SubViewport]), the scale factor of the root window will not be applied. Using [method Transform2D.get_scale] on the returned value, this can be used to compensate for scaling when zooming a [Camera2D] node, or to scale down a [TextureRect] to be pixel-perfect regardless of the automatically computed scale factor.
+ [b]Note:[/b] Due to how pixel scaling works, the transform's X scale value may differ slightly from the Y scale, even when [member Window.content_scale_aspect] is set to a mode that preserves pixel aspect ratio. If [member Window.content_scale_aspect] is [constant Window.CONTENT_SCALE_ASPECT_IGNORE], the X value may differ [i]significantly[/i] from Y due to differences between the original aspect ratio and the window aspect ratio.
