This is mainly for future-proofing because storing these as objects in an array not only has a negative impact when using multithreading due to longer blocking time for the threads but also makes it hard to cache this data for reuse.
The old code went through a list of predefined file names and looked each of them up in a list of predefined directories until it found a match. This made it nearly impossible to add custom IWAD support because the list of valid file names could not be extended.
This has now been switched around to run a scan for matching files on each given directory. With this approach it can look for *.iwad and *.ipk3 as IWAD extensions as well and read an IWADINFO out of these files that can be added to the internal list of IWADs, making it finally possible to define custom IWADs without having to add them to the internal list.
(This isn't fully tested yet so some errors may still occur.)
- replaced TStaticArray with regular TArrays.
They had incomplete implementations preventing proper cleanup of the level loading code. It makes more sense to add the missing methods to the regular TArray and use that.
This also makes some changes to how the game nodes are used to avoid creating a copy: If the head node's pointer is stored in a separate variable, no code needs to check which of the two arrays gets used.
There are a few which require explicit native construction or destruction that need to be exported to the VM, e.g. FCheckPosition.
The VM cannot handle this directly, it needs two special functions to be attached to handle such elements.
- created script exports for all relevant functions with all integral types.
- created script side definitions for the underlying data types.
- added a void pointer type so that the prototype for the pointer array can use a generic type every pointer can be assigned to.
- removed use of finesine for creating the player backdrop for the menu display. This mostly uses the code from the old 2.0 floating point version but fixes some of the constants in there which were not correct.
- Added a generic Standard MIDI File creator that works with any of the sequencers. mus2midi.cpp
is no longer used but is kept around as a reference.

me realize I would be better off creating a type-agnostic AST for the entire input instead
of trying to tentatively create types before they're seen.)

* Fixed: Trying to use a response file would result in infinite looping until memory was
exhausted.
* Fixed: Response files were read after coalescing file parameters, which would lead to
non-coalesced parameters if the original command line and response file both had them.
* You can now use more than one response file.
* Response files can include other response files.

instead of PClass::m_Types (now PClass::AllClasses).
- Removed ClassIndex from PClass. It was only needed by FArchive, and maps take care of the
problem just as well.
- Moved PClass into a larger type system (which is likely to change some/lots once I try and actually use it and have a better feel for what I need from it).

which could cause crashes.
- Added custom special colormaps to DECORATE.
- Cleaned up special colormap code and removed lots of dependencies on the
knowledge of the tables' contents.
