* - Added support for monospacing alignment modes to HUDFont / BaseStatusBar.DrawString
* - added underlying type declaration for EMonospacing
* - replaced "#include v_video.h" with a declaration of EMonospacing
Now, all menus will use the same scale, i.e. it only depends on the screen width and a base size of 640. This nearly universally yields better results than trying to make a 320x200 screen fit.
The only exceptions to this are the intermission screens and the level summary. These, unlike the menu need to try to make a 320x200 screen fit, but without all the hackery that was present to adjust the menu display.
Note that since this affects globally visible script variables, both the intermission and summary drawers will not use their own set but instead temporarily override the global setting as long as they run their own code.
Changing the use of variables here might cause much worse problems with menu code so it wasn't attempted

For the varargs functions that used the Type field to validate their parameters, now a hidden additional argument is passed which contains a byte array with the type info for the current call's arguments. Since this is static per call location it can be better prepared once when the code is being compiled instead of being put in a runtime created array for each invocation. Everything else uses the per-function instance of the same data.
The only thing that still needed the type field with a VMValue is the defaults array, so this uses a different struct type now to store its data.

These cannot be done with the regular textures so there needs to be an option to create more than one native texture per FTexture. For completeness' sake there is also the option now to create a paletted version of a texture if the regular one is true color. This fixes a long standing problem that translations were not applied to non-paletted textures.
* store the frame time in the current screen buffer from where all render code can access it.
* replace some uses of I_MSTime with I_FPSTime, because they should not use a per-frame timer. The only one left is the wipe code but even this doesn't look like it needs either a per-frame timer or a timer counting from the start of the playsim.
I have no idea why they were even in there, as they intentionally circumvented all GC related features - they declared themselves fixed if prone to getting collected, they all used OF_YesReallyDelete when destroying themselves and they never used any of the object creation or RTTI features, aside from a single assert in V_Init2.
Essentially they were a drag on the system and OF_YesReallyDelete was effectively added just to deal with the canvases which were DObjects but not supposed to behave like them in the first place.
- all 5 settings affected by uiscale have been changed to have the exact same semantics: -1, if supported means special scaling, this is available for HUD and status bar, 0 means to use uiscale, any larger value is a direct scaling factor.
- scaling is cut off when the factor is larger than screenwidth/320 or screenheight/200 because anything larger will definitely not fit.
- a lot of code has been cleaned up and consolidated. Especially the message code had an incredible amount of redundancy.
- all scaling options have been moved into a submenu. This menu is not complete, though - it still requires a special menu widget to convey the intended information without confusing the user.
This allows using the UI scale or its own value, like all other scaling values.
In addition there is a choice between preserving equal pixel size or aspect ratio because the squashed non-corrected versions tend to look odd, but since proper scaling requires ununiform pixel sizes it is an option.
- changed how status bar sizes are being handled.
This has to recalculate all scaling and positioning factors, which can cause problems if the drawer leaves with some temporary values that do not reflect the status bar as a whole.
Changed it so that the status bar stores the base values and restores them after drawing is complete.
Currently this is only being used for draw operations that are not automap related, i.e. DrawLine, DrawPixel and FillSimplePoly are not subjected to it.
This has increasingly become an obstacle with the hardware renderer, so now the values are being stored as plain data in the sector, with the software renderer getting the actual color tables when needed. While this is a bit slower than storing the pregenerated colormap, in realistic situations the added time is mostly negligible in the microseconds range.
Most of those which still rely on ZDoom's own definition should be gone, unfortunately the code in files that include Windows headers is a gigantic mess with DWORDs being longs there intead of ints, so this needs to be done with care. DWORD should only remain where the Windows type is actually wanted.
This means that with the exception of 3 pointers the DrawTexture interface only accepts numeric values now.
Still need to get rid of the last 3 to have this ready for scripting.
