While it does reference a global configuration option it's mainly concerned with the properties of the object itself, so makes sense to be a member of the object class.
This is mainly to help isolate functionality in the hopes of adding a specialised object class for this type of object as suggested by @julealgon in https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionX/pull/2344#discussion_r667415019
For example, AddSCambBook performs almost the same logic but uses var6 instead of var8 for the trigger condition/identifier.
Due to the way this function is used it was easiest to also change ObjIndex to return a reference to the object instead of the index. Also added an explicit conversion from Size to Displacement to make one of the uses slightly cleaner to express.
* Update random number functions to avoid IB
Most calls to set seed were using uint32_t already, there were a few variables which were better served by having their type changed from signed to unsigned. The one exception is ItemStruct::_iSeed. This is an identifier that also happens to be used as a seed occasionally so a comment was added documenting this exception.
Includes suggested style changes for Source/towners.h; Source/towners.cpp; Source/msg.h; Source/multi.h
Tthis gives us the option to specify what type a file should be loaded
as, avoidng the need to case it and does some automatic checks on the
fitness of the data, while making the process simpler.
If no type is given then the type will be set to std::byte which limit
what operations can be performed on the data.
