The old method using a single string with a backslash as separator is unable to handle anything with actual backslashes in the data.
It now uses a JSON object with each CVAR being a separate key.

With localization for non-Latin languages on the support list the multibyte API doesn't cut it anymore. It neither can handle system text output outside the local code page nor can an ANSI window receive text input outside its own code page.
Similar problems exist for file names. With the multibyte API it is impossible to handle any file containing characters outside the active local code page.
So as of now, everything that may pass along some Unicode text will use the Unicode API with some text conversion functions. The only places where calls to the multibyte API were left are those where known string literals are passed or where the information is not used for anything but comparing it to other return values from the same API.

It's "doom.id.doom1/2" instead of "doom.doom1/2" now.
The config file's content will be renamed and for lump filtering a fallback has been added - note that you cannot combine both naming schemes! The old one has to be considered deprecated now.
This also removes the duplicated content necessitated by the old naming scheme.

- Added a function to the Actor class to get its spawn time relative to the current level.
- Added spawn time information to the output of the "info" console command.
This data is game critical and may only be altered by code that knows what is allowed and what not. It must never be altered by any user code ever.
However, since the SkyViewpoint actors need to set up some relations between themselves and the default sky portals the previously purely internal 'internal' flag has been exported as a new keyword.
(cherry picked from commit cf8447d19c)
- Added: d_main.cpp now searches for "gzdoom_optional_assets.pk3" - this can be changed in version.h for fork authors.
- Updated forum links to point to ZDoom.org.
