* Instead of doing constant G_MapNumbers when finding the relationship between maps and cups...
* Add a cache of level IDs to cups, to go with the strings.
* Add a cache of the cup pointer to maps, so we don't have to search through all cups to find our map. (done in P_InitMapData)
* Pre-emptive work: G_IsSpecialStage and P_GetNextEmerald now reference cup data instead of a hardcoded ID set.
* Remove a bunch of old stuff from mapheaderinfo_t/associated, and reorder what stays
* Countdowntimer? 💥
* Startrings? 💥
* sstimer/ssspheres? 💥
* forcecharacter? 💥 (distinct from forceskin)
* interscreen? 💥
* sstage_start/end and smpstage_start/end? 💥💥💥💥
* You've been blocked
* G_MapNumber now returns a special NEXTMAP_INVALID if not found, for more consistent reference.
* Incorporate a good chunk of the `edit-headers` branch. Can't clear maps individually because of the new restrictions on sequential mapheaders, but we can add a "disable in vote screen, not even for map hell/archive" flag to a map at some future juncture for equivalent functionality...
"cheats" is a proper cvar now. Enabling it allows for cheats to be used any time, even in multiplayer, and disables gamedata saving. Turning it off undoes as many cheat commands as reasonably possible. Based a little bit off of some vanilla work I also did.
Many cheat commands are still SP-only, but can reasonably be allowed in netgames now if a net command is created for them.
* Allow colorisation types to not completely crowd each other out.
* For example, it's possible for invincibility + grow to flicker Invincibility, Eggman mark, and grow colours if the conditions for each type of flash are true on different frames!
Also removes a few remaining instances of player->bot being checked to affect gameplay where it shouldn't from vanilla, but it's code that is rarely used / completely unused anyway.
* Adjust several loading strings, and left-align their rendering.
* Don't call HU_LoadGraphics() again (startup cached ALL FONTS twice).
* Adjust when some functions are called during loading to more effectively compartmentalise sections of loading that depend on each other.
* LOADED_ISTARTUPGRAPHICS now comes after SCR_Startup, as we can explicitly guarantee the palette has been loaded after that function.
* Make sure everything closely related to configurations (gamedata, console stuff, etc) which is not directly dependent on anything else is loaded under LOADED_CONFIG - "Load settings" (formerly LOADED_MINIT).
* The `-warp` command line parameter is now checked alongside LOADED_DCHECKNETGAME.
* Don't attempt to draw the loading bar before LOADED_ISTARTUPGRAPHICS, as the palette is not loaded, which means you're wasting cycles on a white screen.
* Fix the screen being stuck black at the very start of start record attack.
* Bump up the demoversion to 7, because I want all previous v2 demos to be guaranteed kaput (it was previously 4, but 7 is a nice number).
* Fix a ton MORE shitcausing misalignments in the replay system, this time specifically focused on getting ghosts functional.
* Plug a few holes in the "best lap" record implementation that allowed for stupidly easy records due to the way v2's finish lines work.
* Make a few follower-related things sane, to prevent spurious console prints that were getting in the way of my test prints.
* Fixed a bug where you'd see :nick: on the current character selection screen if you didn't have many skins loaded.
* Fixed a bug where character skins loaded in PK3s would attempt to load every single lump of the PK3, even if it wasn't in the same subfolder as the original S_SKIN, as a sprite into the player struct. Could stand to be ported to vanilla.
Requires new chars.kart, which was created using the help of the indev 2.2-based Kartmaker update which will be available shortly.
