- Fixed: The Zip loader loaded all WADs inside a Zip into the lump directory.
This is only supposed to be done for WADs in the root directory.
- Complete restructuring of the map loading code. Previously the only way
to put maps into Zips was to load them as embedded WADs which caused
some problems, most importantly that the map's file name was irrelevant
and the internal map label was used instead. With the new code there
is now a properly defined way to add maps to Zips:
* Maps are placed in a subdirectory called 'maps'.
* Maps are stored as WADs that contain all map related lumps.
* The first lump in the map's WAD directory must be the map label.
* All lumps not belonging to the first map are ignored.
* The map's file name determines the name the map is identified with.
For maps stored this way the internal map label is ignored so with this
method renaming maps is as easy as renaming a file and it is no longer
necessary to manipulate the map label.
With the new code it is also possible to load external maps without
adding them to the WAD list. Type 'open mapfile.wad' in the console
to start such a map.
The new code also performs stricter lump name checks to prevent accidental
loading of non-map data.

its tiles are loaded from the same directory.
- RFF files now load their entire directories into the lumplist.
- Added char * and const char * type coversions for FString, so FStrings can be
freely passed to functions expecting C strings. (Except varargs functions,
which still require manually fetching the C string out of it.)
- Renamed the name class to FName.
- Renamed the string class to FString to emphasize that it is not std::string.

group file, but the -bpal parameter remains for now.
- Made loading of Build art tiles automatic if they are found inside a group
file. Removed the corresponding command-line parameter.
- Added support for Ken Silverman's group files.
