Also overhauls the punctuation, which now completely fits both the Bigfont and the BigUpper font! Big thanks to Jimmy for a huge amount of support!
* 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.
Passing something non-constant at compile time here is extremely dangerous, especially when users can replace those strings if they like.
It now uses FString::Substitute in all cases where something needs to be inserted into a template string.
This is one of those things where the work needed to make it robust stands in no relation to the gain.
This simply isn't worth the hassle of going through the entire code and fixing every single use of the 2D texture drawing functions.
Unfortunately this means that the graphics items for the menu cannot be replaced this way because their size will most likely differ, but considering that the only candidates for this are the contents of Doom's main menu, the episode menu, the skill menu and the single player summary screen, it's simply not worth it.
In all these cases the IWAD contents can just as easily be replaced with text and user mods which want to offer localized menus will have to work within the confines of the system, e.g. making sure that all menu items are designed to have proper size for substitution to work or by requesting text based menus, which will be added as a modding feature later.
* entering a savegame description did not work anymore
* the length check was too restrictive and always underestimated the available space
* use the console font for entering a savegame description. This has more characters and better contrast for this content.
* the interface to the text enterer used bad measurements.
This variable is needed long after the function which sets it up will be exited. So this either needs to be dynamically allocated or static, and in this case using a static variable is simpler. However, unlike before, it is only being accessed in the one function that needs to initialize it and pass to the summary screen and nowhere else.
For the Doom IWADs the provided font looks almost identical to the characters used on the title patches. So, for any level name that got replaced in some language, it will now check if the retrieved name comes from the default table, and if not, ignore the title patch and print the name with the specified font.
This also required removing the 'en' label from the default table, because with this present, the text would always be picked from 'en' instead of 'default'. Since 'en' and 'default' had the same contents, in any English locale the 'default' table was never hit, so this won't make any difference for the texts being chosen.
Last but not least, wminfo has been made a local variable in G_DoCompleted. There were two places where this was accessed from outside the summary screen or its setup code, and both were incorrect.
* prefer accent-less lower case over uppercase letters if an accented lower case letter cannot be found.
* added accent-less mappings for Latin Extended 1 (0x100-0x17f) and some easy to handle characters between 0x200 and 0x220. This should allow to display all Eastern European text without empty gaps for missing letters.
* the window class name was still ASCII, thanks to some totally pointless and ultimately dangerous type cast to LPCTSTR which rendered all type checks ineffective.
* use wWinMain instead of WinMain so that a Unicode argv gets created. For whatever reason, the ANSI startup leaves this variable empty.
* added a 'disablecrashlog' CCMD for Windows. It is a lot more useful with a debugger present to get the standard crash notification from the system which allows opening a debugger than the crash log and no option to open a debugger.
This still contained pieces where a multibyte string was passed through SendMessage and WM_SETTEXT. All these have been replaced with SetWindowTextW.
This commit also removes the never used crash log upload code and all associated assets because it is extremely unlikely that such a feature will ever be implemented.
This was broken by several small unicode-incompatible code fragments.
This commit also removes the input limit for the player name and the savegame description. With multibyte encoding, limiting them to a fixed length did not work right.
Currently these will just overflow the fields if the text becomes too long, this needs some additional work.
