Tweak VoxelGI defaults for better quality
Overall brightness is similar to the previous settings, but lighting now fades off more naturally and reflections feature indirect lighting. Performance is identical. - Enable Use Two Bounces by default. - Decrease Propagation to 0.5 to compensate for the second bounce.

<member name="normal_bias" type="float" setter="set_normal_bias" getter="get_normal_bias" default="0.0">
The normal bias to use for indirect lighting and reflections. Higher values reduce self-reflections visible in non-rough materials, at the cost of more visible light leaking and flatter-looking indirect lighting. See also [member bias]. To prioritize hiding self-reflections over lighting quality, set [member bias] to [code]0.0[/code] and [member normal_bias] to a value between [code]1.0[/code] and [code]2.0[/code].

If [code]true[/code], performs two bounces of indirect lighting instead of one. This makes indirect lighting look more natural and brighter at a small performance cost. The second bounce is also visible in reflections. If the scene appears too bright after enabling [member use_two_bounces], adjust [member propagation] and [member energy].
