cleaned up function interface to avoid referencing the file system in the worker functions.
replaced StringTable's operators with functions.. The main reason is that these are far easier to look up when browsing the source.
This also fixes a premature translation in SBARINFO that was done in the parsing stage, not the printing stage.
This is a combination of 2 commits.
Revert "New API for assigning unique network ids to objects"
This reverts commit e37c19b5b4.
This is the commit message #2:
Revert "Fix for Morph virtual"
This reverts commit 0ef042562e.
Allows for a custom message to be sent over the network without the need for SendNetworkEvent. This includes all the possible valid types of byte, word, long, float, and string.
Changed SendConsoleEvent to SendInterfaceEvent to make functionality clearer. Added InterfaceProcess virtual to EventHandlers. Added CCMD for sending interface events.
* use a different subfolder for each IWAD's saves.
* do not allow load and save CCMDs to escape the save folder. Absolute paths and '..' are being blocked now.
* unified savegame path and filename generation in one single function. All ad-hoc file name generation was replaced.
* -loadgame will also use the designated savegame folder now.
These were creating dangerous interdependencies. It is better to do explicit conversions when needed.
As an added plus, this means that zstring.h no longer depends on name.h which was very annoying.
- added Marisa Kirisame's CHAN_OVERLAP flag.
- exported S_IsActorPlayingSomething to ZScript.
The sound API change required deprecating A_PlaySound and S_Sound. There are now new variants S_StartSound and A_StartSound which have two distinct parameters for channel and flags.
These ones were particularly bad examples of misusing the exit handlers by temporarily installing one themselves and then calling exit to clean stuff up.
Now they just return an error code to D_DoomMain to perform a regular exit.
Now it's no longer possible to manipulate TID hash from arbitrary location
For example, this prevents linking of destroyed object into the hash
TID member is still public but writing to it is limited to a few very specific cases like serialization and player traveling between levels

Having everything lumped together made this a maintenance hassle because it affected how the level has to be stored.
This hasn't been tested yet, so it may not work as intended!
currentUILevel is now primaryLevel.
For ZScript, currentVMLevel was added. This is also exported as 'level' and will change as needed.
This also means that no breaking deprecations will be needed in the future, because in order to sandbox a level only 4 variables need to be handled: level, players, playeringame and consoleplayer.
The remaining global variables are not relevant for the level state.
The static 'level' has been mostly removed from the code except some places that still need work.
I think these were the last two still missing it, all remaining uses of the global level variable are in code that doesn't get run through a level tick and are supposed to access the primary level.
