…hters to debug its behavior This commit modifies the existing InteractionRaycast.gd and to a lesser extent the PlayerInteractionComponent.gd. InteractionRaycast now uses a shapecast when the raycast doesn't hit a valid collider. If the shapecast hits multiple valid colliders it will use a 'hotspot' and judge distances between it and valid colliders to determine which object the player is more likely intending to pick up. There is a known issue regarding the ShapeCast3D node reference being lost on scene change.
- Turned the Interaction Raycast into a packed scene, to keep child node structure consistent. This should fix reference issues with the Enemy using an interaction raycast. - Updated the player and enemy packed scene to use said interaction raycast packed scene. - Added the option to turn debug shapes on/off.
- Turn debug shapes off on ready if they're disabled and ensure they don't turn on any point while playing - Removed a null ref check having to do with the ShapeCast3D not found for enemy interaction raycast on scene change
Interaction Ray + Shapecasting for easier object interaction

This is updating the Player scene and PlayerInteractionComponent to support a ShapeCast3D (instead of or in addition to the Raycast3D).
While it seems to work, it's behavior is currently not exactly what I expected in terms of how and where it detects interactable objects.
