The previous implementation didn't behave quite like A-* is supposed to.
After trying to figure out what's causing it and giving up,
I've reimplemented it in a straightforward manner.
Now it seems to work a lot better.
Also increases maximum player path length to 100 steps.
We still only store the first 25 steps in the save file for vanilla
compatibility.
In C++, globals initialization order accross translation units is not
defined. Accessing a global via a function ensures that it is initialized.
This will be needed for #7638, which will statically initialize change
handlers after the Options object has been initialized.
1. Moves more assets-related stuff from `init` to `engine/assets`.
2. Removes `SDL_audiolib` dependency from `soundsample.h`.
3. Cleans up some unused/missing includes.
Looks like the KallistiOS Dreamcast SDK disables double support
by default: 495e77fd60/environ_dreamcast.sh (L16)
We don't really need doubles in this code.
The one place where we might have needed them is the SMK video
decoder, handled in a separate PR.
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.
For monsters with the same sprite, load the sprite from the file system only once.
Example:
```
VERBOSE: Loaded monster graphics: falspear\phall 452 KiB x1
VERBOSE: Loaded monster graphics: skelbow\sklbw 618 KiB x1
VERBOSE: Loaded monster graphics: skelsd\sklsr 610 KiB x1
VERBOSE: Loaded monster graphics: goatbow\goatb 832 KiB x1
VERBOSE: Loaded monster graphics: bat\bat 282 KiB x2 <-- here we only load the sprite once
VERBOSE: Loaded monster graphics: rhino\rhino 1306 KiB x1
VERBOSE: Loaded monster graphics: golem\golem 298 KiB x1
VERBOSE: Total monster graphics: 4401 KiB 4684 KiB
```
Here, the bat sprite will be loaded from the MPQ only once.
For the second sprite, we simply clone the first sprite before applying TRNs.
This also reduces the size of `MonsterData` from 88 bytes to 80.
When we migrate monster data to a TSV, the sprite IDs can be generated automatically at load time.
This has little or no effect on the optimized build
but significantly improves performance of the headless debug build
`timedemo_test` on my machine goes from 3s to 2s.
