3f372af486 Fix some problems with CMatrix4::getRotationDegrees
- Only the getRotationDegrees without parameter is allowed to try fixing scale.
  My fault when I added a new function which takes scale parameter, that one is 
  not allowed to be changed.
  On the up-side - we know have for the first time an option which works in cases only
  scale and rotation had been used and the user still has the correct scale. 
  Before any solution for that was broken
- getRotationDegrees fixes 2 places which caused wrong results due to floating point inaccuracies
  New test for that got added
- Document the current restrains and problems of getRotationDegrees and getScale some more.
- Improve docs for other matrix4 functions.
- Add some comments about further improvements (I'll try if I find time)

Note: Irrlicht still assumes in at least 2 places (getting bone animations and Collada loader) that matrix
decomposing works. Which it doesn't yet for matrices which switch handedness (or have further transformations like skewing axes)
The bone animation is mostly fine for now with recent workaround (but that might cause other problems as it may be used too often), haven't checked Collada yet in detail.

TL/DR: This improves things with getRotationDegrees, but does not yet fix all troubles.

Thanks @juozas for mentioning this (https://irrlicht.sourceforge.io/forum/viewtopic.php?p=306758#p306758)

2928a632a4 Material.ZWriteEnable is now of type E_ZWRITE instead of bool and ZWriteFineControl get removed (or merged into ZWriteEnable).
This breaks compiling. To have old values replace false with EZW_OFF and true with EWZ_AUTO.

There's a bit history to this change. ZWriteFineControl got introduced after 1.8 so it was never in a released version.
Basically it was needed after some changes had been made to allow shaders to have zwrite enabled independent
of the material-type (which worked badly for shaders). This had caused other problems as it was then enabled too often instead. 
So to quickly fix those bugs and avoid breaking compatibility I had introduced a new enum ZWriteFineControl in SMaterial.
This worked and didn't break compiling - but I noticed by now that introducing a second flag for this made maintainance for an already 
very hard to understand problem (figuring out the implementation of transparency and zwriting) even more complicated. 
So to keep maintance somewhat sane I decided to break compiling now and merge those two flags. 
The behavior should not be affected by this commit - except for users which set this flag already in their code and have to switch to the enum now.

Serialization is switched on loading old files (so SMaterial has enum already and writes that out).
