Document VehicleBody3D and VehicleWheel3D limitations
These classes have dozens of open bugs and missing features
which may not be fixed anytime soon.
It's probably better to document it upfront at this point.

It is based on the raycast vehicle system commonly found in physics engines. You will need to add a [CollisionShape3D] for the main body of your vehicle and add [VehicleWheel3D] nodes for the wheels. You should also add a [MeshInstance3D] to this node for the 3D model of your car but this model should not include meshes for the wheels. You should control the vehicle by using the [member brake], [member engine_force], and [member steering] properties and not change the position or orientation of this node directly.
