This was yet another piece of code that essentially was unworkable thanks to the limited screen space with the old bitmap fonts.
With the new font there is enough screen space to do this properly.
Since Google can export this as well it makes a lot more sense here because it is a textual format better suited for version control and does not carry along all the formatting baggage that isn't needed for a string table.
This has to be set in the console, the default is still the regular small font. Mainly added because some mods have really hard to read fonts where it is not easy to decipher the numbers.
1. Top-level menu names are now properly handled.
2. Changing "Any or All terms" option now immediately updates the results.
3. Reformatted menu.zs to have tabs instead of spaces.
The quotation marks were made by combining the < and > signs. Because the back buttons in the menu look quite similar, they were also retouched for all games.
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
The default was changed to replace graphics if only known content is affected.
This also required blocking the feature for Hacx, Harmony and Action Doom 2 which have no localization yet and would fall back on Doom's texts if not blocked.

* consolidated C_MidPrint and C_MidPrintBold.
* removed some unused code from the console buffer.
* handle console output of centered messages to ensure they get written to the log file and to stdout.
* replaced the non-standard bar strings with simple '-'s. These were making things needlessly complicated when redirecting console output and the new font does not have the characters anyway.
* removed some old code from a time when during console drawing new network events could come and have more text printed. This can not happen anymore with how 2D elements are being handled now so all this code was redundant.
