https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionx-mpq-tools produces an unpacked MPQ
with all the graphics converted to CLX and the unused files removed.
This is primarily useful on RAM-constrained platforms, such as PS2,
because it eliminates the MPQ overhead.
Adds a build option to load from such unpacked directories instead of the MPQ.
These directories are searched for in the same locations
where the MPQs would be searched for otherwise.
Example directory layout:
* /usr/local/share/diasurgical/devilutionx/diabdat/ -- unpacked and converted diabdat.mpq
* /usr/local/share/diasurgical/devilutionx/hellfire/ -- unpacked and converted hellfire MPQs (all of them merged into 1 directory)
* /usr/local/share/diasurgical/devilutionx/fonts/ -- unpacked fonts.mpq
* /usr/local/share/diasurgical/devilutionx/pl/ -- unpacked pl.mpq
These directory structure is produced by calling `unpack_and_minify_mpq`
We want to be able to use unpacked MPQs on low-end platforms
(PS2/rg99/etc).
This is tricky on case-sensitive filesystems. Avoids case issues by
lowercasing all paths in the code (then we'll just need lowercased
listfiles).
The format is almost identical to CL2, except it uses the frame header
to store frame width and height instead of 5 32-line offsets.
This means we always have access to frame dimensions, so we can use it
as an on-disk format for our graphics as well.
Additionally, we may be able to optimize the rendering even more
in the future now that we have guaranteed knowledge of frame dimensions.
Convert CEL files to CL2 at load time. CL2 format is more efficient and is about as fast to render.

Memory:
* Peak memory (while loading): -300 KiB
* Memory in-game (dLvl5): -700 KiB
* RG99 binary size: -15 KiB (1333096 -> 1317192)
Performance on rg99:
* On average, -1 FPS in town.
* Same FPS in dungeon (20 FPS on dLvl 1).
Previously, keyboard events used `lParam` for modifier key state,
while mouse events used `wParam`.
Changes the mouse events to use `lParam`, which allows us to
change `lParam` to `uint16_t`.
Demo migrated with a script.
