* Port MUSICDEFs from Kart.
* Safe to modify without modifying game, so we can put it in music.dta eventually.
* "Title", "AltTitle", "Authors" fields are self-evident.
* "Soundtestpage" and "Soundtestcond" are used to determine which sound test unlockable can play them (set with Unlockable's variable, just like Level Select).
* "Stoppingtime" and "BPM" both accept floats, and are used for presentation stuff on the sound test.
* Ironically, we don't share a single field name with them. Such is the case of differing foci, though, and I expect they'll change their implementation to match (since this is necessary for a sound test).
* Change how S_AddSoundFx works to avoid iterating through all of them, and to allow cv_soundtest to only scroll through defined slots (instead of the infinite wall of thok sounds when scrolling to the left).
* Change V_DrawFixedPatch to allow scaling on two seperate axes.
* Now called "V_DrawStretchyFixedPatch".
* "V_DrawFixedPatch" is a macro to V_DrawStretchyFixedPatch now (same scale on both axes).
* Available to Lua under v.drawStretched!
* Even works in GL!
* Bugfix: Add SR_PLAYER to SOC's menutypes_list.
Stay tuned for the merge request, where I put the onus on the Music Team to finish this off...
* Make the skin to record with Metal rather than Flesh Sonic. (Allowed even if not unlocked!)
* Make the object that plays back the recording actually use the Metal skin, rather than just a seperate spriteset. (The boss will still need the spriteset, though.)
* Actively record the player's sprite2, frame, and followmobj, just like regular ghosts do.
* Disable dashmode while recording, for a fairer race.
* Fix a probably long-standing bug where, while recording, being "hurt" would get Metal stuck in pain frames until they physically left the area of hurt.
* Always start Metal recording in wait frames for bonus taunting.
Other relevant changes:
* Increment DEMOVERSION *again*.
* Improve the Record Attack ghost followmobj recording to accomodate Metal's jet.
* Increase the datatype width of spritenum_t read/write for Record Attack ghosts because SUGOI 4: Back With A Revengance will probably also use more than 255 sprites alone.
* Return to standing frames (or prolong them if you're in them, rather than going to wait frames) if the player rotates on the spot with enough force.
* This was specifically done *for* Metal recording, but I decided it looked good enough to enable all the time.
Added support for map names, matched by substring and keywords too!
Added support for two digit MAP codes without the MAP part.
Added support for decimal map number. (But who cares.)
Gave a better description of command.
Supported abbreviated optional parameters.
And now REALLY detects incorrect parameters.
* Sometimes, D_MapChange is passed a mapnum of -1, to complete an existing mapchange. Don't handle botingame checks when that happens.
* Disable charsel on secret level platter when selected map is a NiGHTS stage, since gameplay will be identical across characters (consistent with NiGHTS Attack).
Also:
* Replace IT_DYBIGSPACE hack in M_SetupChoosePlayer, and replace with a more direct workaround system for not being able to select characters before warping.
Music pausing is now optional.
Sounds may be paused--on by default.
The game itself being paused in off-line mode is now optional.
(showfocuslost now loads from config.)
* Pandora's box now has infinite lives show up as "Infinite" instead of "-1".
* `pointlimit None`
* `timelimit None`
* Ported `basenumlaps` (with "Map default" value) from Kart to replace `usemaplaps`, for if Circuit ever gets shown any love ever again.
* `respawndelay Off`
* `resynchattempts Don't`
* Default to 1, which means potential for a 1-frame loss every once in a while but no longer a complete cpu hog
* New minimum is 0, since -1 just did the exact same thing as 0 except slightly more optimized.
Changed any instance of "joystick" in strings to "gamepad"
Renamed some cvars
Added a define for MAX_JOYSTICK
Added back the missing command line params.
* Genesis-style love and attention to the death event.
* Only visibly decrement lives/rings when you're respawning (or game over, see below).
* Faster no-button-press respawn.
* Game Over specific love.
* Animation of Level Title font coming in from the sides.

* Change gameovertics to 10 seconds instead of 15.
* Make the minimum time before you can force going to the Continue screen longer.
* Accomodate death in MP special stages as a form of exit.
* Don't have your rings or spheres reset when you die in a special stage, so that the stage isn't softlocked with the new harder limits.
* Fix a bug with CoopLives_OnChange where changing to infinite lives didn't force a game-overed player to respawn.
Also, two not-quite death things which nonetheless were relevant to change:
* Fix quitting a special stage having some of the shared spheres/rings disappear into the aether.
* Fix a warning during compilation for the Ring Penalty print.
* Array of 8 INT32's natively embedded into savedata (net and SP)!
* Initialised to zero whenever a new save (or equivalent) is started, otherwise untouched by the base game.
* Requires reservation to avoid clobber-conflicts.
* Access via `reserveLuabanks()` - returns a read-write userdata.
* Assign userdata to local variable or global rawset to use later.
Mostly for future SUGOIlikes, but I'm sure someone could figure out an unrelated usage eventually.
