Note that this required splitting P_SerializeWorld, because sector_t and FSectorPortal contain some actor pointers, for which the same rule applies: Portal linking can only be done after all sectors have been read, meaning it cannot be done along with the rest of the data in these structures.
Obviously such a change breaks savegame compatibility so the min. savegame version had to be increased again.
All the PortalBlocks* functions were turned into real function calls which for such a frequent check should be avoided. So now any linked portal sets a flag in the attached sectors so that it isn't necessary to check the skybox pointer each time which makes the functions subject to inlining again.
- Converted P_MovePlayer and all associated variables to floating point because this wasn't working well with a mixture between float and fixed.
Like the angle commit this has just been patched up to compile, the bulk of work is yet to be done.
Patched up everything so that it compiles without errors again. This only addresses code related to some compile error. A large portion of the angle code still uses angle_t and converts back and forth.
- fixed: P_TryMove could loop endlessly over a list of static portals when there was an error during portal creation.

Links through sector portals are not done because nearly all the checks can be performed without doing this so if it works without there's no need to add more processing time.
Will have to see if there's cases left where such a link is needed and if so, whether there's better options to do it.
For line portals such links are necessary to have proper collision detection with actors that are currently transitioning the portal.
- fixed: P_FindFloorCeiling set the floorsector for a new ceilingheight.
Note: P_DrawRailTrail still needs to be changed, at the moment rail trails through portals will not work correctly.
* any line completely parallel to the portal is rejected
* any line with one end on the same straight line than the portal is solely decided by the other vertex.
* any line with both ends behind the portal cannot be visible inside, so there's no need to check for an intersection with the view range.
* due to the above P_IntersectLines could be removed as it was redundant.
* for any line that does intersect with the portal straight, do a reverse check: If both ends of the portal lie on the other side of the line than the viewpoint, the line is between viewpoint and portal and needs to be rejected.
This fixes nearly all the phantom wall glitches in the demo map.
- converted the P_TranslatePortal* functions to use floating point trigonometry. The combination of R_PointToAngle and finesine even created discrepancies with perfectly parallel portals which is just not acceptable.
- added a function to FPathTraverse to relocate the trace and restart from the new position.
- made P_UseLines portal aware. Traversal through line portals is complete (all types, even teleporters), whether sector portals need better treatment remains to be seen - at the moment it only checks the range at the player's vertical center.
* Arch-Vile resurrection
* Boom point pushers (due to complete lack of z-handling only for line portals.)
* A_RadiusGive
These also require a more thorough collection of portal groups than simple position checks.
This includes:
* allow one sided portal linedefs to be crossable when part of a polyobject. Due to the limitations, two-sided linedefs won't work here. For general use this is still not allowed because making them passable would require some crippling fudging.
* delay portal finalization until after polyobjects have been spawned.
* the camera interpolation also needs to handle angle differences.
The code is still not 100% complete - the most important thing that is still missing is proper handling of P_CheckPosition through arbitrary portals.
- added portal offsetting to all AproxDistance, AngleTo and Vec*To members of AActor.
- optimized displacement retrieval so that the most common case with no offset retrieves a constant null-vector which can be optimized away fully by the compiler.
- early out in P_GetOffsetPosition if there's no portal lines nearby, so that the common case can skip the traverser completely even on maps with line portals.
