Summary

As discussed in #50 I've created minimized export templates for each platform. The TEMPLATES.md file includes instructions on how to build new versions when the engine version changes. Each platform has an associated *-custom.py used to define the enabled/disabled features and modules. I've updated export_presets.cfg to use these templates.

Size Comparison

Platform Default Size (MB) New Size (MB)
Windows 10 Pro (22H2) 71.5 39.9
Ubuntu 22.04.5 67.6 49.6
MacOS Sonoma 14.5 52.3 47.2

Resolves #50

oh thanks! looks pretty interesting! but it is not ok to store the templates via github repo. the best way would be building them during release. so .github/workflows/create-release.yml should be adjusted before we are ready to merge it

I can remove those files from the pull request. I'm not sure if we'll be able to build the MacOS templates via GitHub actions though, I believe we need them built on Mac hardware. Although I might be mistaken.

Edit: Nevermind! It does appear possible. I'll take a look at this when I get more time.

I pulled parts of the official Godot workflows to replicate how they create their templates, with a few modifications. This will create the templates and use them for exporting the game, but won't store them in the release. If that's desired I could include that in a separate pull request.
