Added, Visual mode, GLOOME, DECORATE: FLOORSPRITE, CEILSPRITE, WALLSPRITE, ROLLSPRITE and STICKTOPLANE flags are now supported (implementation is somewhat broken ATM and probably doesn't work the same way as in GLOOME, because Windows build with most these features is nowhere to be found...).

Sectors mode: optimized sector highlight rendering logic.
Sectors mode: optimized sector effect/tag labels update logic.
Geometry tools: optimized several core functions.
Hints for current editing mode can now be displayed when nothing is highlighted (currently the hints are shown only in Draw Geometry mode).
