When performing the ShadowBlock check, we previously would return a nullptr actor if nothing was between the monster and the player. This resulted in the monster aiming as if you didn't have invisibility.
Fall back to returning the target actor if it is shadowed but nothing is in between the two.
Now acts as a rubberbanding effect. The result is that movement is now considered correct and adjusted towards the real position if not rather than cautiously moving towards the predicted position.
View interpolation paths are now reset properly when predicting, fixing portals. Teleporters disabling view interpolation is now handled before every movement instead of only once at the start of predicting. Enabled FoV interpolation when playing online.
Fixed an off-by-one error on client IDs (these need to start at 1 as 0 is an invalid network ID). Morphing will now swap the client body's ID so it remains in the first 1 - MAXPLAYERS slots.
This is a minor fix for interpolation when playing online as predicted movement was not properly having its prev data reset like a real tick would be. This resulted in jittery player sprites in third person.
cleaned up function interface to avoid referencing the file system in the worker functions.
replaced StringTable's operators with functions.. The main reason is that these are far easier to look up when browsing the source.
This also fixes a premature translation in SBARINFO that was done in the parsing stage, not the printing stage.

Revert "Fix for Morph virtual"
This reverts commit 0ef042562e.
- If an actor crosses back over a portal because they're blocked, it will result in false positives.
- Fixed nodes not being targeted for aim direction.
- AMBUSH flag on nodes makes them blind and untargetable when getting `startnode` and `goalnode` for `FindPath()`. This is useful for indicating a node should be skipped when tele/portaling, so the current path can be preserved.
- Setup is simple: place nodes behind lines that tele/portal entities and mark them as AMBUSH.
Other changes:
- Restored global array since blockmap is not a viable option here.
- Added MAPINFO `pathing` flag which enables pathing by default.
- Added NOPATHING flag to disable pathing entirely, useful for maps that have pathing enabled.
- Added `ReachedNode(Actor mo)` virtual, responsible for handling node traversal.
- Nodes now make use of MeleeRange to limit their sight checking functions.
Extra safety to ensure dummy Actor deaths properly emulate a real death and aren't duplicate called. Fixed a crash when using the kill command while set to unmorph on death. Super morphing is now possible while using the morphme cheat if passing the morph class directly. Added a flag to ignore player invulnerability completely when morphing.
Players will now use their Alternative field to check if they're morphed instead of their MorphTics. This makes the current state of morphing more reliable, otherwise setting this to 0 manually without unmorphing could have very odd results. Both monsters and players consider 0 morph time to mean infinite now (previously this only applied to monsters). Player unmorphs no longer die in the case of a failed unmorph on death. Removed inventory swapping on player pointer substitution as it's too messy to do here.
Removed StaticPointerSubstitution in favor of a much safer function that only changes select pointers. As a result the ability to properly modify morphing has been opened back up to ZScript. Many missing virtual callbacks were amended and MorphedDeath has been reworked to only be called back on an actual morphed death. MorphedMonster is no longer required to morph an Actor. CheckUnmorph virtual added that gets called back on morphed Actors. Fixed numerous bugs related to morph behavior.
View offsets are now added after the base position and angles (accounting for interpolation) are calculated. Behavior was centralized into a singular tracer that all view offsets now use to prevent clipping out of the map. Cleaned up camera rendering behavior. Angles are now properly normalized after all offsetting is accounted for. The chase cam can now update in real-time instead of forcing interpolation.
