This had two different flags that were checked totally inconsistently, and one was not even saved.
Moved everything into a few subfunctions so that these checks do not have to be scattered all over the code.
There is no need to do this deep inside the renderer where it required code duplication and made it problematic to execute on multiple levels.
This is now being done before and after the top level call into the renderer in d_main.cpp.
This also serializes the interpolator itself to avoid problems with the Serialize functions adding the interpolations into the list which can only work with a single global instance.
This also changes the action special interface to pass a Level parameter to the separate functions and makes a few other minor adjustments to the polyobject code.
Since these can be changed on the placed light actor they have to be read from there, so this is now a pointer in FDynamicLight, just like the other properties that can be user-changed.
Also did some cleanup on the interface so that external code doesn't need to dereference the lightflags pointer but can use utility functions for all flags.
This should be less of a drag on the playsim than having each light a separate actor. A quick check with ZDCMP2 showed that the light processing time was reduced to 1/3rd from 0.5 ms to 0.17 ms per tic.
It's also one native actor class less.
* it's no longer the main texture objects managing the pixel buffer but FSoftwareTexture.
* create proper spans for true color textures. The paletted spans only match if the image does not have any translucent pixels.
* create proper warp textures instead of working off the paletted variants.
As a side effect, caching of pixel buffers for texture composition is temporarily disabled, as it management of texture redirections. These things will be reimplemented once things progress further. The existing methods here had their share of serious issues that should be fixed.
This was done to make reviewing easier, again because it is virtually impossible to search for the operators in the code.
Going through this revealed quite a few places where texture animations were on but shouldn't and even more places that did not check PASLVERS, although they were preparing some paletted rendering.
* Colors can npw be defined per sidedef, not only per sector.
* Gradients can be selectively disabled or vertically flipped per wall tier.
* Gradients can be clamped to their respective tier, i.e top and bottom of the tier, not the front sector defines where it starts.
The per-wall colors are implemented for hardware and softpoly renderer only, but not for the classic software renderer, because its code is far too scattered to do this efficiently.
Setting the buffer and its attribute bindings must be one step, not twp. With Vulkan this is a single API call.
This removes the now obsolete SetVertexBuffer method from the model renderer's interface.
