Should CanvasItem.update() be renamed to request_redraw() or redraw()?

[Mickeon]

In the more recent rename tracker for Godot 4.0, it was brought up to rename CanvasItem.update() to request_redraw(). It's clear that this method's name needs to be urgently changed. In a broader context, especially when extending a CanvasItem Script, the word "update" is vague, and request_redraw() is exactly what the method has been described to do. It's outstandingly meaningful.

Personally, I'd prefer to call it redraw. It's short and simple like update(), while still being more meaningful, but it may be misleading, as the redraw is actually done inside NOTIFICATION_DRAW, that the method schedules to send when a new frame is to be rendered, but this can be explained in the documentation.

But regardless,

The winner is queue_redraw().
