When using `UNPACKED_MPQS`, avoid all the SDL machinery for reading
files.
This is beneficial not only due to reduced indirection but also because
we can test for the file's existence and get the file size without
opening it, which is much faster.
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).
Reduces peak memory consuption in game by ~420 KiB.
This is because the PCX renderer applies the palette on the fly while
rendering, meaning we do not need to duplicate the font for different
palettes.
This approach is also a bit slower than precomposed palettes (still
plenty fast).
Makes `CelSprite` unowned and adds a new `OwnedCelSprite` class for
owned sprites.
This clarifies ownership and makes the code cleaner in a number of
places.
Additionally, because the `CelSprite` class is now tiny (1 less
pointer), we can pass it by-value instead of by-reference, removing a
pointer indirection in the rendering functions.
This fixes cases such as `github.com`.
As we now require a space after Latin punctuation, we can remove
the list of Latin punctuation symbols and break on the space itself.
We still disallow linebreaks between consecutive fullwidth punctuation
symbols.
libmpq is a much simpler alternative to StormLib for reading MPQ archives.
We use our own fork of libmpq: https://github.com/diasurgical/libmpq
Impact:
* DevilutionX is now a lot more portable. Unlike StormLib, libmpq only
needs platform-specific code for Windows.
* Locks around file access **removed** (instead we duplicate the file descriptor for streamed audio only).
* RAM usage is **300 KiB** lower than StormLib.
* Stripped release linux_x86_64 binary is **32 KiB** smaller.
* Amiga build now hangs instead of crashing.
The bounds checks were performed against the global screen dimensions
instead of the output buffer dimensions.
Also includes some minor cleanup of DrawArt.
Fixes#3388
