Aside from spawning the enemies from the lowest supported skill it will also reduce the threat level by reducing health of some enemies or by replacing the harder Ninja variants with the base type.
* Blood: Initialize global pointers in app_init so that they are not NULL.
* consider Mapinfo data when checking for a given level name.
* removed redundant level name output.

Due to dependencies on initializing some data in app_init it was not possible to cleanly set up the fonts.
This adds a game-side function for loading the entire palettes before starting with the texture data and another one for loading game-side texture data.
This now allows fully setting up the palettes before starting with the textures and to fully set up the textures before reading the .def files.
All this is needed because to properly initialize, the fonts need to be able to access the fully initialized texture state, including replacements and hires substitutions from the .def files.
This was the result of some gross change to the spawning code which suddenly changed the rules about minibosses.
To reduce the impact, it is only enabled for the "Alien World Order" maps.
Since there is no plan to keep them in case MP gets implemented there's no need to maintain them.
These should later be replaced by a generic screen using a better font and a layout that takes higher resolutions into account.
It is not enough to just copy the properties - if this happens the entire portal needs to be reinitialized. The only way to do this is to run CollectPortals again to reset all portals in the map.
