enableskyboxao is a map flag, so it goes in the "gamedefaults", "defaultmap", or "map" section. I decided to put it in the gamedefaults section for each game.
- Always allow skyboxes by default
- Add option to disable skyboxes through mapinfo

Disable AO for skybox portals (can be forced back with MAPINFO flag).
I think it is inevitable that such status bars will appear in mods sooner or later and with the old code it is virtually impossible to create a wide status bar that displays properly but gets subjected to this code.
What could be done has been moved into the filter directory of game_support.pk3
Unfortunately most of the rest is needed as presets even for custom games so it cannot be fully cleaned up, because the dependencies here and the filter structure do not align 100%.
The default was changed to replace graphics if only known content is affected.
This also required blocking the feature for Hacx, Harmony and Action Doom 2 which have no localization yet and would fall back on Doom's texts if not blocked.
The recent localization work has made it apparent that on many images the menu was extremely hard to read because its colors often clash with the background.
The choice of a bright overlay color with extremely low opacity is simply not enough to make the menus comfortable to navigate. Chex Quest was particularly bad but the problem existed in many Doom mods as well.
This also changes the CQ dim color to something a bit more green to better fit with the theme.
* added a CVAR that sets how localizable graphics need to be dealt with.
* pass the substitution string to OkForLocalization so that proper checks can be performed.
* increased item spacing on Doom's list menus to 18 from 16 pixels, because otherwise the diacritic letters would not fit. 20 would have been more ideal but 18 was the limit without compromising its visual style
* added a second text-only main menu because here the spacing cannot be changed. Doing so would render any single-patch main menu non-functional. So here the rules are that if substitution takes place, it will swap out the entire menu class.
* fixed some issues with the summary screen's "entering" and "finished" graphics.
This removes the entire palette switch and all the special checks to ensure that no menu can be drawn over this image.
Instead it gives this texture its special palette in the texture manager so that the proper image is created right away.
I decided against exposing this as an editing feature because it is far too specific to this particular image and the raw page format it uses.
A quick check of /idgames shows no project ever replacing it - especially no ZDoom-based project - so no extended handling is needed to make this work with other texture formats.
