Unique RNG namespace for client-side effects and HUDs. Identifiers for these cannot clash with identifiers that affect the playsim making them completely safe to use in HUD elements. They also won't be saved.
- Effectively similar to Actors, but without the excess.
- Can be created with either the `level` function or the static `Spawn` function in ZSprite.
- STAT_SPRITE belongs to ZSprites only; ZSprites cannot be moved out of, nor can anything else be moved in to, this statnum.
Misc:
- Fixed (Sprite)Offset taking roll into account.

This is needed for implementing reliable serialization of custom translations. As long as they are merely ints they cannot be restored on loading a savegame because the serialization code does not know that these variables are special.
While 'block players' was just a simple remap, 'block land monsters' required quite a bit of work...
This also fixes the bug that BLOCK_FLOATERS was never checked for sliding against a wall.
In this mode the clean scaling factors are ignored and content is always scaled to fit the screen as efficently as possible.
For the default summary screens an option was added to use this mode, which is a lot closer to the original look of this screen.
It is not 100% identical because it still factors in the author, if given and long level names that may be broken into multiple lines of text.
* removed refreshFreq variable and related code. This only got into the backend because of stupid interpolation code in some of the Build games which has long been removed.
* save FixedBitArrays as base64 in savegames.
* allow indirections in the string table - by prefixing the language string with '$$' the remaining text is interpreted as another string label to resolve.
* constexpr in palette code, also replacing #defines with enums.
* Added ViewAngle/Pitch/Roll properties to actors.
- These are offsets for camera angles that allow turning the camera without affecting aim or movement direction.
- Added A_SetView<Angle/Pitch/Roll>, which will set the view direction.
- Added ABSVIEWANGLES flag, used to make the view absolute instead of an offset.
* Converted functions to be direct-native.
This simulates a feature found in Crispy Doom, which keeps the
weapon bobbing while firing. This leads to a "smoother" appearance
which may look a bit prettier to some people.
The default value of 0 preserves the old behavior.
