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).
Adds simple string / integer concatenation functions.
Many of the uses of `fmt::format` are simply concatenation
of a few strings and integers.
`StrCat` is an easier-to-read alternative to such uses of `fmt`.
* Use appropriate types for size constants in control.cpp
* Declare constexpr value for iterating over the cells in a stash grid
* Use appropriate type for UIRectangle dimensions
1. Do not modify the map after loading. Instead, return string views
(guaranteed to be null-terminated) from look up functions and return
the key directly if not found.
2. Use an `unorded_map` instead of `map` where available (C++20).
Saves a bit of RAM (~50 KiB) and improves lookup performance.
Previously this was falling back to FunctionCase, leading to inconsistent casing of class methods throughout the codebase. Applied to Item as an example.
This cleans up a bit of code and solves a few edge cases where an item
could be lost, the game be unresponsive, or miss fire an event during
lag cause of the cursor not reflecting the currently held item.
* fix 0 index for durability icons
* Add ItemType::Shield (clarity)
Add ItemType::Shield to switch/case for clarity, so it is clear that this is what the default option was to show.
