Before Godot 4.4, there is no API to call static functions via reflection, so I had to be creative with the polyfill in #989.

As a result, the added Callable::from_local_static() exposes some unintuitive behavior with the implementation on Godot 4.1 - 4.3:

  • is_valid() returns false, even though the call itself will work.
  • The Callable cannot be used in signals (due to the above).

This PR adds tests and documents this.
