- Fixed: Thing_ProjectileIntercept broke slightly when converted to the new

vector math routines (almost two years ago!) because the original code
  multiplied down columns of the rotation matrix, but the new code multiplies
  across rows of the matrix instead. This is remedied by flipping the matrix
  across the x=y axis by reversing the sign of the sine value passed to the
  matrix constructor.

 - Fixed: Autoloading a game (e.g. respawning after dying in single player)
   during demo playback prematurely ended demo control of the player.
