helixhorned 40874820f3 Classic renderer: high-precision sprite drawing, preventing stray lines on top.
Face- and wall-aligned sprites are drawn using the wall routines in BUILD.
However, the per-x-screen-coordinate distance (swall[]) is calculated in a way
that potentially incurs great precision loss (for example 5 bits for
xdimen=1280, yxaspect=65536). This leads to the starting (top) vertical texture
coordinate possibly wrapping to large values, leaving an unsightly "stray line"
on top of the sprite from certain viewing angles/horiz values.

The approach to fix it has two parts: first, the distance is calculated using
float values, preventing the precision loss. Because this doesn't fully prevent
the unwanted lines, the texture coords are clamped to the mininum and maximum
(0 and UINT32_MAX respectively) when calculating them for sprites.

Note that stray lines may still appear at the *bottom* of sprites under certain
circumstances, for example when viewing at a y-flipped sprite from above.
These should be less noticable in real-world usage though.

The feature is guarded by a macro HIGH_PRECISION_SPRITE in case using floating
point or 64-bit integers is undesirable/impossible on some platforms.
