An imt switcher automatically changes the context's active imt based on
a user specified list of binary inputs. The inputs may be either buttons
(indicated as +button) or cvars (bare name). For buttons, the
pressed/not pressed state is used, and cvars are interpreted as ints
being 0 or not 0. The order of the inputs determines the bit number of
the input, with the first input being bit 0, second bit 1, third bit 2
etc. A default imt is given so large switchers do not need to be fully
configured (the default imt is written to all states).
A context can have any number of switchers attached. The switchers can
wind up fighting over the active imt, but this seems to be something for
the "user" (eg, configuration system) to sort out rather than the
switcher code enforcing anything.
As a result of the inputs being treated as bits, a switcher with N
inputs will have 2**N states, thus there's a maximum of 16 inputs for
now as 65536 states is a lot of configuration.
Using a switcher, setting up a standard strafe/mouse look configuration
is fairly easy.

in_bind imt_mod mouse axis 0 move.yaw
in_bind imt_mod mouse axis 1 move.forward
in_bind imt_mod_strafe mouse axis 0 move.side
in_bind imt_mod_lookstrafe mouse axis 0 move.side
in_bind imt_mod_freelook mouse axis 1 move.pitch
This takes advantage of imt chaining and the default imt for the
switcher (there are 8 states that use imt_mod_strafe).
The switcher name must be unique across all contexts, and every imt used
in a switcher must be in the switcher's context.
