Using Shape2D or similar in LightOccluder2D instead of a PackedVector2DArray

[SubtleUnrest]

Describe the project you are working on

I am working on a 2d side-view videogame.

Describe the problem or limitation you are having in your project

Not a problem for me but dealing with capsules or circles seems like it would require some hacks.

Describe the feature / enhancement and how it helps to overcome the problem or limitation

I am generating LightOccluder2D objects from CollisionShape2D children of a StaticBody2D object, being able to use the shape2d resource in the LightOccluder2D would cut out a bunch of boilerplate.
Basically I am asking to move this boilerplate into the engine.

Describe how your proposal will work, with code, pseudo-code, mock-ups, and/or diagrams

This field is nonsense.

If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?

It can be worked around with a bunch of lines of script.

Is there a reason why this should be core and not an add-on in the asset library?

Because I don't use add-ons.
