* Speaking of, actively enforced not being able to be Super and NiGHTS at the same time.
* Also on that note - SPR2_TRNS is now the NiGHTS transformation. The Super transformation is (FF_SPR2SUPER|SPR2_TRNS).
* SPR2_NPAN is now SPR2_NSTN, since it matches Super Sonic's stun animation rather than the pain animation.
* Fixed a bunch of things where Super float was handled badly with 2AM brain.
* Fixed the R_ProjectSprite error going out of spr2names' bounds.
* Fixed order of FF's in dehackéd.
* Fixed that thing where Super Sonic was blue for 1 tic after transformation, and the life icon was a blue Super Sonic.
* Create a normal skin, but replace the S_SKIN lump with an almost empty one named P_SKIN.
* Provide "name = existing skin name as one of the first line (comments allowed)
* Reset individual spritenames back to zero sprite2s (or one for SPR2_STND to prevent complete removal) via "reset = SPR2_****" statements.
* No support for changing skin properties that are non-visual at the moment, but I don't really feel like it's wise to have those changable with patch alone. (Hello, tons of "modern Sonic" wadfiles which just change vanilla Sonic's ability to CA_HOMINGTHOK!)
* Sprites patch over.
To see an example in action, look at <root>/toaster/smilespatch.wad.
* Some shield sounds swapped (can be reverted later).
* Partial implementation of S3K shield abilities.
* The ability to elemental-groundpound onto gold monitors without going straight through them.
* Force shield ability removed because nobody could agree on it, we'll keep it blank until another idea can get through the disagreement juggernaut.
* introducing the new friend, SH_FORCEHP (which is used as a bitmask to get the extra hitpoints of a force-shield user)
* P_DamageMobj now considers the unimplemented shield constants as well as the implemented ones.
Last-minute NiGHTS exiting bugfix
One single-line fix concerning the end of NiGHTS maps. Extremely small, literally zero side effects here, the only reason I'm not committing directly to master (aside from ettiquette) is that I don't have the ability to do so.
* The NiGHTS drone had a single tic of visibility when you hit the goal, which is evident stepping frame by frame through http://gfycat.com/ComplicatedComposedAoudad (the contents of which may or may not make it into 2.2). This is no longer the case.

* When completing a NiGHTS stage with a non-zero link, the link could flash up in the final few tics before the fade to black. This just checks for player->exiting to make sure it shouldn't be shown.
* Several new supercolours.
- SKINCOLOR_SUPERSILVER1-5 (for fun) - "Silver"
- SKINCOLOR_SUPERPERIDOT1-5 (nyeheheh) - "Peridot"
- SKINCOLOR_SUPERCYAN1-5 (for fun) - "Cyan"
- SKINCOLOR_SUPERPURPLE1-5 (for fun) - "Purple"
- SKINCOLOR_SUPERRUST1-5 (mecha/metal sonic) - "Rust"
- SKINCOLOR_SUPERTAN1-5 (shadow/silver the hedgehog) - "Tan"
* SKINCOLOR_SUPER1-5 renamed to SKINCOLOR_SUPERGOLD1-5, one index for darkest is changed - "Gold"
* SKINCOLOR_TSUPER1-5 renamed to SKINCOLOR_SUPERORANGE1-5, ported properly to the new palette - "Orange"
* SKINCOLOR_KSUPER1-5 renamed to SKINCOLOR_SUPERRED1-5, ported properly to the new palette - "Red"
* new S_SKIN attribute - supercolor - uses an entirely different function to get the names (R_GetSuperColorByName instead of R_GetColorByName)
* a fun little secret - typing "god on" in the console whilst super makes the player hyper (visual only, no sparkles - just rainbow flash) - can be removed if no fun is allowed
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.
Monster's miscellaneous meddling
A miscellaneous assortment of code-cleanup and other changes, plus fixing up SRB2's tangent array so it behaves more as expected (especially on the Lua side).
More specific details of the changes:
(MUST-HAVE CHANGES)
* `finetangent[]` has been entirely redone in the same manner as finesine/finecosine.
* Lua's tan() function shifts `finetangent[]` results by `ANGLE_90` to get what you EXPECT it to return (e.g. `tan(0)` actually returns 0 now). This means finetangent itself doesn't need to change its general arrangment, this only affects Lua specifically.
* Lua's tan() function now also doesn't go out of `finetangent[]`'s bounds at all. Before, `tan(ANGLE_180)` through `tan(ANGLE_MAX)` and such would just give you values unrelated to the array in question, which was clearly a bad thing.
(CAN PROBABLY LIVE WITHOUT?)
* `finecosine`'s definition moved from r_main.c to tables.c.
* Created `P_CheckTimeLimit` for `cv_timelimit`, much like `cv_pointlimit` has `P_CheckPointLimit`. It cleans up `P_UpdateSpecials` a bit at least.
* Some code cleanup relating to translucency maps - these are kind of unimportant, I was about to stop `FF_TRANSMASK` being used everywhere, but this was apparently a bad idea so I backtracked a bit.
* Re-added `_MSC_VER` check around MSVC-specific code in doomtype.h, in case it wasn't defined (and `__OS2__` was). Also left a comment there regarding `__BYTEBOOL__`.
* Fixed an apparent copy+paste goofup in `joyaxis_cons_t[]` for the Wii-specific code.

*player->health (formerly the "HUD" health) is now to be known as player->rings, and now acts as the player's actual ring count
*player->mo->health (formerly rings + 1) is now always 1 when alive, regardless of ring count; if player with rings is damaged, this is untouched
Damage in normal SP/Coop gameplay has been tested and still works fine; still a lot of mess to clear up though
Tag damaging probably is broken now, I'll fix this later
