What is NinePatchSprite2D?

A NinePatchSprite2D class is the class that mixed NinePatch with Sprite2D together, with critical features extracted from the two classes and arranged in this one. NinePatchSprite2D provides a Sprite2D-like implementation; however, it allows you to make the 2d sprite nine patches, or nine different tiles. You can set the stretch mode of both X-axis and Y-axis of a nine patch sprite, as well as its margin that defines which are border of the sprite patches. Meanwhile, as a Sprite2D-alike class, NinePatchSprite2D also provides frames system that helps developers with animations, so that they don't need to take total care of the offset of the rect that samples the texture, which is more flexible and convenience than NinePatch, and useful out of the box.
