Intel graphics crashes need fixing

[hhyyrylainen]

It seems that some intel hd graphics versions don't work with bsf, directx11 api. But some even old intel hd graphics versions do work (albeit being very slow, hopefully I get a response here: https://discourse.bsframework.io/t/improving-rendering-performance/498). So investigating and reporting these crashes to bsf should be done. Hopefully they can guarantee that newer than certain threshold intel graphics could be made to work.

There is now this thread: https://discourse.bsframework.io/t/bsf-fatal-error-when-running-a-program-on-windows/510
So basically we need to wait / motivate the bsf developer to fix it.

A test build should be made that could use the forward rendering path in bsf to see if that works or not: https://discourse.bsframework.io/t/bsf-fatal-error-when-running-a-program-on-windows/510/10?u=hhyyrylainen

We got about 40 reports on the first day after 0.4.2 release, about crashing with intel graphics. And that's with about 300 total downloads. So quite a large fraction of potential players have this issue.

It's a bit late to have a fix for this issue: https://forum.revolutionarygamesstudio.com/t/switching-to-godot/663

I've left all issues open for now until the Godot version gets merged into master.
