This allows game and defs to not overwrite each other's voxels.

* removed all cases of getting a sound handle and checking it later.
* In particular, refactor the cases where the handle is stored in a static local variable. These are fundamentally unsafe because nothing maintains these local variables.
* finished rewriting the PlaySound function. Let's hope this is what was intended, the entire coding here was not particularly good, mixing high and low level sound handling all on the same level.
* call the update routine each tic and not merely every 4th or 8th one, this kind of granularity was ok in 1997 but not with a modern sound engine.
* removed old sound loading code, which was the last bit to use cacheAllocateBlock which is also gone now.
* cleanup of player sound code. All game side tracking of the sound resources has been removed.
does not compile yet.
Because, why not? The SWCustom I use already contains them.
However, since the original source does not play theme MIDIs - only CDA, there's a switch to disable them.
* removed temporary placeholder content from string init function. All this gets properly read from definition files now.
* preinitialize a few quotes that are used for status display purposes and are needed in all games
* only use the global episode name table in Blood to avoid redundancy
* let SW's swcustom parser write to the global tables instead of local ones.
This was one huge mess where nothing fit together.
Also added an enhancement that the CD Audio boss theme tracks are also played when CD music is generally off, because these have no equivalent in MIDI. This needs to be checked if it's stylistically ok, though.
Sound is only partially functional, video mode completely nonfunctional, but it makes no sense adjusting them to the current backend code when it's due for replacement.
Reverted this to a sane setting, as it was in the original games and in all other games I have ever seen, i.e. there is a global setting to enable mouse view, and a button to manually trigger it. The toggle can be easily handled by flipping the CVAR directly.
The main problem here was that it triggered a few cases for mouse-less gameplay in the default case with a mouse present, because the mouseaim CVAR was no longer what the game expected.
This misguided change seems to have originated in JFDuke but by now had propagated to all the other games as well, the code was in all 4 frontends.
This was only a crutch to let the input interface work with the original menus.
Now that the one in Blood is gone, all the conditions are no longer relevant. (Shadow Warrior never got far enough to implement this)
This was some meticulously preserved relic of bad old DOS times used to block OS facilities to close an app.
Since this has been worked around at a lower level already the variable was essentially without function but some quite bad code depended on it.
