Clarify use of source_color in Shading Language

Rewrite section on using the source_color uniform hint. Content is mostly the same,
but is more clear.
Rename one instance of "shader hint" to "uniform hint".
Adds a section header for Uniform hints.

+    Any texture which contains *sRGB color data* requires a ``source_color`` hint
+    in order to be correctly sampled. This is because Godot renders in linear
+    color space, but some textures contain sRGB color data. If this hint is not
+    used, the texture will appear washed out.
 
-    The 2D renderer also renders in linear color space if the
-    **Rendering > Viewport > HDR 2D** project setting is enabled, so
-    ``source_color`` must also be used in ``canvas_item`` shaders. If 2D HDR is
-    disabled, ``source_color`` will keep working correctly in ``canvas_item``
-    shaders, so it's recommend to use it either way.

+    Using ``source_color`` hint is required in the Forward+ and Mobile renderers,
+    and in ``canvas_item`` shaders when :ref:`HDR 2D<class_ProjectSettings_property_rendering/viewport/hdr_2d>`
+    is enabled. The ``source_color`` hint is optional for the Compatibility renderer,
+    and for ``canvas_item`` shaders if ``HDR 2D`` is disabled. However, it is
+    recommended to always use the ``source_color`` hint, because it works even
+    if you change renderers or disable ``HDR 2D``.
