This now treats all pitch methods equally instead of the preferential treatment of Doom's original pitch hack. Most importantly, the sound channel now stores the pitch as a floating point value instead of 9.7 fixed point.
snd_pitched now also gets checked in the sound engine, not the low level interface.
Due to C++ conversion rules this was a bit too volatile. There's really not enough places where being able to pass a string directly into the sound API was beneficial - the two most frequent functions now got overloaded variants.
This solves two problems:
* The linked list is too slow, a map is better. A map cannot be used with statically allocated CVARs because order of initialization is undefined.
* The current CVAR system is an unordered mishmash of static variables and dynamically allocated ones and the means of identification are unsafe. With this everything is allocated on the heap so it can all be handled the same by the cleanup code.
- changed default value for midi_config to empty string since gus is not working with sf2 file
- fixed SetupDMXGUS not loading lump correctly, wrong use of CheckNumForFullName
- midi_config default to empty string, since lzdoom.sf2 doesn't seem supported (distorted sound)
- added absolute paths to FZipPatReader so we can add custom patches to resource files by using gus_patchdir and/or ULTRADIR variable (some custom maps has custom patches that can be added this way without putting them inside the resource file or in the same folder of the configuration file)
- set timidity_reverb_level min value to 0 in menudef.txt, set to 9 by mistake?
Both synth and sound font can be very relevant here for the final volume so using the same song with different settings needs to create different strings.
The real issue is that the number of unattenuated sounds was unchecked and the near limit never kicked in.
To do this properly it is necessary to adjust the limit distance by the attenuation - zero attenuation must mean infinite distance and for high attenuations the distance must be lowered for limiting to work as intended.
The limit for the Doom boss sounds was increased to 4 to compensate for this change.
