- added a $musicalias command to SNDINFO that allows remapping of music tracks. Mapping to 'none' means that starting the remapped song will have no effect at all. There's one limitation though: If you load a WAD with the same music name after the one with the SNDINFO lump the mapping will be ignored. This is so that music resources can use this command without interfering with WADs that replace the music with their own.
