 add: r_alphaToCoverageMipBoost <0.0 to 0.5> (default: 0.125) boosts the alpha value of higher mip levels

+chg: the Windows audio output now has a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz
+  with this, /video won't have issues with cl_aviFrameRate 60 anymore

 chg: with r_backend GL3, depth fade with MSAA now requires GLSL 4.00 at a minimum
   depth access is now correctly multi-sampled (less aliasing) and performance has improved as well
