- added a few access functions for FActorInfo variables.
With PClassActor now empty the class descriptors can finally be converted back to static data outside the class hierarchy, like they were before the scripting merge, and untangle the game data from VM internals.
This is an incredibly costly way to do a debug check as it infests the entire VM design from top to bottom. These tags are basically useless for anything else but validating object pointers being passed to native functions (i.e. mismatches between definition and declaration) and that simply does not justify a feature that costs execution time in non-debug builds and added memory overhead everywhere.
Note that this commit does not remove the tags, it only discontinues their use.
- decided to ditch the widget system I had started to lay out. As it turns out that would make things far more complicated and slower than they need to be.
It used the expression's value type, but needs to use the variable's, which can be different when the assignment is synthesized from a builtin function.
- keep string registers which are being used as function parameters allocated until after the function call returns. This is for allowing to pass strings by reference which would avoid some costly constructor/destructor loops in the call instruction.

- allow treatment as one-character string constants as character constants. This became necessary because name constants already use single quotes and are much harder to repurpose due to a higher degree of ambiguity.
- fixed: protected methods in structs were not usable.
The code for constants was not optimal because the first operand of the instructions cannot be constant. This was solved by swapping it with the second choice which will always be non-constant.
The code for local variables did not allocate a new destination register and would overwrite the first parameter's variable.
It now uses a dedicated opcode instead of piggybacking on OP_CALL and it passes data that is closer to the VM. Symbols should be avoided at this level.
It also will skip the scope instruction if the code generator detects that both calling function and the self pointer type have the same scope, this assumes that subclasses cannot flip between UI and Play.
They are not needed for OP_NEW_K which can evaluate the class relations at compile time and for OP_NEW the calling function can also be checked at compile time, passing only the scope value itself.
- made CameraHeight a modifiable actor property - it was readonly before.
- allow accessing the type constants from ZScript, this required quite a bit of explicit coding because the type system has no capabilities to search for basic types by name.
This will store class meta properties in a separate memory block so that it won't have to muck around with PClass - which made the implementation from the scripting branch relatively useless because extending the data wasn't particularly easy and also not well implemented. This can now be handled just like the defaults.
