Due to backwards compatibility needs and for flexibility this needs to be controlled by a gameinfo setting (fullscreenautoaspect):
0: Treat all images as having an aspect ratio of 4:3, this is the default for compatibility reasons
1: Scale all images to fit the screen, i.e. either pillarbox or letterbox them.
2: Scale all images to fill the screen.
3: Scale all images so that the center 4:3 area is always fully visible. This is the recommended mode for 16:9 images designed to be shown with the sides being cropped on narrower displays.
A new DTA_ tag - DTA_FullscreenEx also exists which allows specifying the scale mode directly

For now only with font-printed map names. Allowing this with titlepatches will require more work and an option to disable.

- moved the ALTHUDCF parser PClass::StaticInit, so that it gets done right after creating the actor definitions.
All left to do is not to reallocate the AltHud object for each frame but store it in a better suited place.

- better handling of ForceScale for the fullscreen HUD that doesn't mess around with CVARs.
- moved the mug shot into the status bar, because this is global state that needs to be shared between different pieces of code which want to display a mug shot.
- SBARINFO should work off the current status bar settings instead of the ones stored in its script object
- made bluramount also into a gameinfo option
- negative gl_menu_blur cvar now uses gameinfo option, 0 disables it
- removed gl_menu_blur_enabled since gl_menu_blur==0 does that anyway
- made gl_menu_blur default to -1 to use gameinfo option
- add default gameinfo bluramount options
This method was chosen because it avoids adding variable declarations to the global namespace which would have required a lot more work while polluting the grammar.
This way the global variables can be handled by a small bit of special coding in the struct generator.
- do not resolve the backdrop texture to a texture ID at load time. This will allow custom menu classes to use this info differently.
- added a new ZSDF userstring property to dialog pages to give mods more means for customization.
- allow overriding the conversation menu class both globally through MAPINFO and per conversation in ZSDF.
- improved the class pointer to string cast to print the actual type it describes and not the class pointer's own type.
- fixed: The 'is' operator created non-working code when checking the inheritance of a class pointer, it only worked for objects.
This is different from the original "Death Scripts" idea. This tackles
some issues I've found with the original idea (now you can have as many
scripts as you want, not just global and actor-defined). Also takes care
of other complaints about the original idea and push request. Flags and
their use are in code comments.
