Unlike everything else from the IWADs this had to use the 'light' keyword in ZScript because this is merely a base class for many others and the light definitions here need to be inheritable.
Many uses of random() & value have been turned into random(0, value).
This is not only more efficient, it also ensures better random distribution because the parameter-less variant only returns values between 0 and 255.
The problem here is that this affects the public scripting interface so it cannot be committed to master without further adjustments.

DamageMobj can destroy the damaged actor if the death state sequence has zero duration. But Actor.target is a garbage collected member variable, i.e. it will be null, once the actor it points to gets destroyed.
This was originally done correctly in the C++ code but during the scriptification all those 'AActor *target = self->target' lines were removed because they looked redundant, but were not.
* all new things got either an sctor definition or are explicitly deleted through the 'doomednums' section in MAPINFO. CTC related actors are non-functional!
* added a 'noskillflags' option to 'doomednums' so that the lightmap definition things in the maps can be repurposed as dynamic lights.
* added the new dagger powerup.
* added MAPINFO entries for the added maps.
- added a StartSlideshow ACS and ZScript command and extended the functionality to specify the slideshow's name when starting it.
This is for triggering any kind of intermission definition in the middle of a level - keep in mind that this may not be set up to loop!
This function calculated everything correctly but ultimately set the vertical velocity wrong. Most importantly this meant that the actual velocity vector and actor pitch - if CMF_SAVEPITCH was used - did not match.
Since this bug has been present since the pitch parameter was added, this deprecates A_CustomMissile and replaces it with a properly implemented A_SpawnProjectile function and handling the compatibility case with a new flag and a scripted wrapper function.
All internal uses of A_CustomMissile have been replaced as well.
- Changed the glass shards so that they do not have to override FloorBounceMissile. It was the only place where this was virtually overridden and provided little usefulness.
- made 'out' variables work.
- fixed virtual call handling for HandlePickup.
- added a String class to allow attaching methods to the builtin string type. This works by checking if the left side of the member accessor is a string and just replacing the tyoe in this one place, all the rest is automatic.
