We may want to migrate this to 1 file per monster but for now the
migration is as close to the hard-coded version as possible.
Sprites that are used by multiple monsters are only loaded from disk
once.
1. `Events` global is replaced with `require('devilutionx.events')`.
2. Table is simplified and documented.
3. `On` removed from the event names as it was a bit redundant.
4. Functions are camelCase for consistency (e.g. `add` instead of
`Add`).
Example script:
```lua
local events = require("devilutionx.events")
local render = require("devilutionx.render")
local message = require("devilutionx.message")
local function greet()
message("Hello from " .. _VERSION)
print("Hello from ", _VERSION)
end
events.GameStart.add(greet)
local function drawGreet()
render.string("Hello from " .. _VERSION, 10, 40)
end
events.GameDrawComplete.add(drawGreet)
```
Runs lua/repl_prelude.lua at console initialization.
The default prelude contains global assignments for all devilutionx
modules. This should save us on typing.
Enabled only in Debug mode.
Runs Lua similar to the `lua` CLI.
Supports multiline input with Shift+Enter.
Missing features:
1. Scrollback.
2. Input history on up/down.
Open with backtick, close with Esc.
Replaces `NXDK` ifdefs that relate to the lack of wchar APIs
with the more general `DEVILUTIONX_WINDOWS_NO_WCHAR` ifdefs.
This should make it much easier to port to Windows 98.
Also added an iterator based API, though it's not useful for this use-case. Might be nice in the future?
The field/record iterators is single-pass input iterators with shared state.
To avoid rescanning fields unnecessarily parseInt currently can only be called once, it would be possible to make these iterators bidirectional with a bit of extra state (holding onto the start pointer)

Stop using git for the version tag.
The new process is as follows:
1. The `VERSION` file contains the version.
For release, it should contain "1.5.0".
Immediately after the release, it should be changed to "1.6.0-dev".
2. The build type is included in the version string unless it is
"Release". The commit hash is now included into the version string
whenever the `VERSION` file has a suffix (i.e. 1.5.0-dev rather than
just 1.5.0). The full version string for development builds now
looks like this: `1.5.0-dev-Debug-b102dccf8`.
This means we longer need git or `-DVERSION_NUM` to get a sensible version number.
The in-development versions are now always clearly indicated with the
`-dev` suffix no matter how DevilutionX was built.
Enable these options for all platforms that use GCC.
They do not seem to significantly affect build times on our codebase,
while resulting in a slight 2-3% performance increase on low-end devices,
such as RG-99.
Another option that improves performance. From GCC documentation:
> Stream extra information needed for aggressive devirtualization when running the link-time optimizer in local transformation mode. This option enables more devirtualization but significantly increases the size of streamed data. For this reason it is disabled by default.
