Using global variables for this is bad, and it didn't even catch all cases. Now a node build is only considered successful if everything is set up successfully.

If we ever want to refactor the global level data these must not reference the 'level' variable.
The main parts of the map loader cannot use this information, because it can only be created after running the node builder, so it got its own set of index functions instead.
This involves passing the level explicitly to many functions. What was done here may seem a bit excessive but at least it covers everything.
Most importantly, the global ActiveThinker pointer has been moved into FLevelLocals and is now getting tracked properly by the level without using dangerous assumptions about how the game organizes its data.
Since the SpawnedThings array is still available when polyobjects are spawned it makes no sense to create an expensive linked list in P_SpawnMapThing.
This can be done far better by scanning through the array again and collect all matching items in a second array.
This thing made sense when GZDoom and ZDoom were separate projects to avoid having to change some core files for the added options.
Now, with only 3 ones remaining, one for FraggleScript and two for Extradata the overhead here is just too high. The 3 variables can just be moved to level_info_t without carrying along this much baggage.
