Improve GDScript Editor and Improve latency

Improvements:
- GDScript Highlighter is faster by 25% as keys are smaller (hashes instead of strings)
- Removes message queue from _apply_settings_change to allow resize to work correctly
- Some performance fixes are pending still

Note: this resolves the code editor behaving badly when resizing in debug builds
