Beta 5.

- [flak_m] Implement particle meshes.
- Append heal amount to health pickups (excl. superhealth).
- Armor Bonus item.
- Overhaul Stinger explosive charge behaviour, more in line with 0.83 and the novels.
- Fix: Dispersion Pistol should only have infinite ammo in deathmatch.
- Dispersion Pistol altfire always at level 0 if below 10 ammo.
- More Fireblaster tweaks and touches and whatnot. Now fires in 3 bursts of 3 projectiles. And there's more damage and whatnot, it should stop sucking.
- Capped fire effects for huge actors.
- Reduced flames per tic on Flamethrower, to see if this causes less performance issues. May roll back if this was a bad idea.
- Snuck in some longer versions of a couple player sounds.
- [oldsounds] Added higher quality dispersion pistol select sound.

+There needed to be an equivalent to Doom Tournament's here. These stack up to
+a total of 200. In addition, the more you have, the higher the percentage of
+damage they will absorb.

+They have the lowest priority, so all other armors will go down first.
