Fix portal and plane/sky interaction
More portal-related fixes:
* Fixes rendering issue 4 from issue #21 (Slope planes render with wrong height values when visportals are visible on-screen)
* Fixes sky rendering through portals, so that the sky you see through each portal is what you'd expect to see if you were actually there. Easiest way to see what I mean is through sky 22's planet, in a map with portals at 90 degrees to the other sides respectively (the example map on the wiki for ld40, for instance).

The idea is for the layman Lua user to understand better what range of values to use for mobj types, states, sfxs, player #s etc. Additionally, mobjinfo/states/sfxinfo/hudinfo tables all now have actual bound checks when accessing/editing them. Yikes, why didn't they have any before?!
Slope fixes
This branch fixes the following slope-related physics and rendering bugs:
* Rings in multiplayer stages respawning inside slopes (even despite being able to spawn ABOVE them on map load)
* Player starts spawning players inside slopes
* Elemental flame trails not appearing if a player spindashes UP a slope; see issue #21
* Dying players "jumping" off slopes to the side if they were previously standing on one
* Some issues with FOF slope rendering
* Various issues with sprites displaying through walls adjacent to slopes
Other features added:
* Objectplace now supports slopes (this is Inuyasha's doing)
* Automap in DEVMODE now supports slopes (my doing)
Just making this merge request now rather than later, ~~in case I decide not to make any more fixes for the time being~~ (this branch doesn't seem to want to die lol), and so we can get these merged in as soon as the code's all been checked over.

xorshift* PRNG
This needs testing to ensure I didn't mess anything up switching function names around.
Our PRNG sucks. This is probably obvious. I wish I had known better at the time I implemented it, but oh well.
The replacement is an xorshift* PRNG variant with period 2^32 - 1 (meaning that the PRNG state will loop after four billion calls ... that's not likely to happen), versus the old PRNG's period of about 2^22 (?). The output is also much more random and less predictable; the old PRNG would fall into a predictable loop of output after about 4000 numbers were generated, which isn't much.
The PRNG here also outputs numbers as fixed point from [0,1) (that's 0 to FRACUNIT-1, in other words) instead of single bytes at a time. This makes it much easier to calculate things for, say, P_RandomRange and P_RandomKey. A new macro, P_RandomChance(p), is now in use that returns true _p_ percent of the time, where _p_ is a fixed_t probability from 0 (0%) to FRACUNIT (100%).
This doesn't affect netgames at all; the code for seed saving and restoring is identical (aside from a check to prevent seed being set to 0, which breaks xorshift PRNGs). Demos break, but A: _duh_ and B: they're already broken by all the changes to physics to accommodate slopes.
P_Random is deprecated in Lua, as the function was renamed to P_RandomByte. Aside from that, nothing special.
See merge request !64
* add skidtime, which we forgot before 2.1 release apparently
* change tics from INT16 to INT32
* change eflags from UINT8 to UINT16
* change actionspd/mindash/maxdash from INT32 to fixed_t
Until we use something besides Native MIDI to play
back MIDI music, MIDI volume changing is disabled
since it causes way too much of a damn headache.
(It's not even our fault, it's fucking MS.)
Fix for teetering on PolyObjects
So... somebody goofed and didn't realise PolyObject sectors could be added to the sector node list for each object (which is referenced by mobj->touching_sectorlist), via their linedefs if they are nearby the player (yes, PolyObject linedefs are special and get to move about the level). As it turns out, this allows even INTANGIBLE PolyObjects to make you teeter in a seemingly inexplicable way.
What is happening is that PolyObject sectors, when they are added to the mentioned lists, are then checked under normal sector teetering conditions - if the player is above the floorheight by 24 FUs, you're officially teetering unless stated otherwise. The actual PolyObject teetering code can't help you here if the conditions are right, especially if they're taller than 24 FU in height.
There are a number of things wrong with the teetering code in general that I'd like to sort eventually, but at least now teetering on PolyObjects is fixed at last ...right? Please check the branch out if you can to check this, obviously.

Fixes for patch scaling and V_FLIP usage
The following issues are fixed by this branch:
* a patch using both scaling and V_FLIP does not appear in the "correct" place on the screen. Thanks to LJSonic for pointing this out to me on 'fun
* Scaled and/or V_FLIPed patches wrap at the left/right screen edges even though they're not supposed to. V_FLIP patches at these edges may also crop the wrong side of the patch if they're at the right edge.
See merge request !60
Some fixes for portals
Specifically the following things are fixed in this branch:
* a memory leak resulting from not clearing away clipping-related arrays each tic you view a portal
* a very specific crash to do with portals sometimes (unintentionally) using a hack on drawsegs that don't actually belong to them ...which results in a crash if the drawsegs in question have midtextures. I reported it on the MB a year ago, with a test map included there: https://mb.srb2.org/showthread.php?t=38199&page=4#79
* another specific crash to do with mirrored (horizontally flipped) sprites that are scaled, particularly when you cover up the left edge of them via portals at the least. Needs more testing to be absolutely sure this is fixed, and is also reproducable in the test map linked in the post above
May be fine to merge changes into master too, I don't really know exactly
See merge request !42
Camera fix
This fixes the third person camera being silly around intangible PolyObjects, particularly the fact they can affect the camera's floorz and ceilingz even though I see no reason why they should do so.
Also a good reminder that POF_SOLID is the same as POF_CLIPLINES and POF_CLIPPLANES combined, which is probably how this issue came about to begin with. Can't say that with certainty of course.
See merge request !57
P_RandomChance is now a macro for something that should happen a
certain percentage of time.
P_SignedRandom was moved to a macro. Nobody cared.
# Conflicts:
# src/p_inter.c
This actually passes most diehard tests, as opposed to the old RNG.
It's also similarly fast.
Internally the PRNG generates a fixed point number from [0,1) now,
which makes P_RandomKey and P_RandomRange much easier to
calculate. P_Random is just a simple shift, as well.
Also, the lack of floating point math in P_RandomKey and
P_RandomRange now is probably for the best.
Also makes comptime.bat work with git if able.
Development builds will now show the branch and the SHA1 hash of the revision. Also been tested to work with subversion, where it displays "Subversion r####". You know, just in case.
There is a caveat to this: The first time EvalMath is used, a
deprecated function warning will be shown to the user that tells
them to use _G[] instead.
This reverts commit 9d36cf37bd.
This appears to fix a few holes that have been known to appear with FOF slopes sometimes, dunno how they actually came about exactly but this apparently sorts them out
Lua sector lines
Adds support for "sector.lines" in Lua, an array containing all the linedefs in a particular sector variable:
#sector.lines returns the number of lines in the sector.
sector.lines\[ _i_ \] (e.g. sector.lines[0], sector.lines[1], sector.lines[2], etc ....) gives you individual linedefs in the sector. If the number you supply is equal to or greater than #sector.lines, this returns nil.
Test script for your benefit: (see comments)
Type "luatest" in console in any level and you'll get a few print messages that tests these features for sectors[0]
See merge request !32
SOC_**** lump name support
Exactly what it says on the tin: lumps with "SOC_" prefix now are read as SOC lumps like with MAINCFG/OBJCTCFG. Go nuts.
As a bonus, I've changed things with SOC lump detection so MAINCFG, OBJCTCFG and the new SOC_**** lumps are loaded in the order you find them in WAD files (rather than an arbitrary load-MAINCFG-then-load-OBJCTCFG thing as before). All of these are still loaded after Lua scripts though, mind.
See merge request !38
Lua video lib expansion
New video/drawer library functions for hud.add to use:
v.width() and v.height() return the screen width and height respectively (in other words you get the screen resolution), while v.renderer() returns the string for the renderer used ("software", "opengl", or "none").
Possibly add more stuff later, but for now these things at the least can be merged in next
See merge request !40
Add PlayerSpawn hook to Lua
I don't know how I did this but I did. Something about staring at code from 3AM till 5AM...
Here's a test script too:
```Lua
addHook("PlayerSpawn", function(player) player.health = 99 end)
```
See merge request !48
Version constants for Lua
Pretty simple thing. Allows scripters to use VERSION, SUBVERSION, and VERSIONSTRING to check the game's version and potentially futureproof scripts. Have tested and confirmed working on my end.
See merge request !55
BACKPORT: removal of music slots
Relevant commits cherry-picked. Basically everything except the internal music track name switches.
See merge request !43
The funny thing is you really can't see ANY change here unless you have a sloped FOF intersecting a sector floor/ceiling (and a second FOF on the other side), which has other problems anyway lol
BACKPORT: FF_ANIMATE simplistic state animations
this is a lot more complex due to the need to remove the dispoffset related code as well as a lot of the redefinitions; combined with the code changes due to the sprite2 system in internal master.
~~BEFORE ACCEPTING THIS: get sryder to look at and fix any possible brokenness with OpenGL MD2s~~
See merge request !45
Fof flag change hotfix
This fixes rendering issues caused by changing FOF flags mid-level via Lua or linedef type 445. Everything else that toggles FF_EXISTS already had this fix it turns out.
Not sure if this is safe for master too, could someone check that for me?
See merge request !53
This fixes how removing certain flags (such as FF_EXISTS) from FOFs can cause HOMs on walls bordering their target sectors. Also fixes how the force-FOF-to-vanish linedef special can leave behind the FOF's shadow
Fix chain launching
Basically you're not allowed to launch off a chain the frame you touch it anymore.
Coincidentally the changes here allow you to actually use PF_*STASIS in a Lua script now and have it work as you'd expect it to (it lasts for a tic).
See merge request !49
cpuaffinity/sdl_mixer changes
Hopefully this will alleviate SDL2 sound issues.
If not, hopefully this will give us info on what the hell is going on.
See merge request !51
(No, game, you can't allocate a map header for the credits, why were you doing that before and how did it not break anything??)
(cherry picked from commit e1f9a012297d5220dcdd9395265467621a170e32)
Use whatever names you want for your music. So long as you prefix the lumps with O_ or D_, it doesn't matter anymore.
DISCLAIMER: Linedef type 413 (change music) and Lua scripting is not tested.

Monster Iestyn's Miscellaneous (netplay-compatible) changes
Just cleaning up some unused or unnecessary things left in the source code, see the commits for exact changes made if you like.
May add more stuff to this branch later, there's no rush really.

Diagonal spring rings tweak
If you didn't know before, those special placement ring lines for diagonal springs only use multiples of 45 for their angles in-game. In other words, they only face any of the 8 basic cardinal directions (N, S, E, W, NE, NW, etc). Considering that springs themselves don't follow the above behaviour, you can probably work out that's a bad thing.
This branch changes that of course, if you couldn't guess from context. Diagonal spring rings can now be placed with any angles like most thing types already could!
See merge request !37
some of the mess in here really bothers me
(cherry-picking this commit of mine from next since it only fixes a small oversight with compiling and adds a comment)
the screen texture does not need an alpha channel.
the fact that it had one made OGL copy the topmost pixel of the screen texture's alpha channel.
which, naturally results in the screen becoming partially transparent and letting you see the working texture in the background.
