Godot 4 Tutorial: Input Check Handler, Disable Mouse Hover, Disable Button Focus through code

This is a Godot 4.2 tutorial (I mention a 4.3 method), that goes over how to implement an Input Check Handler so that one can detect if a mouse or controller is being used. Alongside this, methods on how to disable Mouse Hover and Button Focus through code are presented

----- Note
I forgot to mention this in video, but we need to disable the mouse filter for every button because we can't tell which button is being hovered over without iterating through all of them. It's a rather annoying process due to godot not having an easy way to access all child nodes of a parent node or for them not having a mouse_filter option that prevents all child nodes from receiving signals from the mouse.
