Analogue clock face

Configurable analogue clock face.

9-7-2023: I have updated the shader to version 2. It has been changed slightly to work with Godot 4 by default but there are comments explaining how to use it with earlier versions of Godot.

15-1-2023: I have optimised the code by removing explicit if statements. I used some of the code snippets provided by nonunknown here: https://godotshaders.com/shader/optimize-your-shaders/
