game to crash shortly after Andr� shows you the coyote stone. More
precisely, when the camera view shifts from the close-up of the
conversation back to the normal view of the caf�.
For those who enjoy reading commit messages, this was the crash I was
hunting for yesterday.

or presses a button. This is how displayMsg() was always used, so the only
difference is that the code to check for events is no longer outside the
function.
In the process, it turned out that removeMsg() was probably unnecessary so
I have removed it. May cause regressions, but we can deal with them later.

found the old name misleading (there is only one array that stores the
palette in the engine, though it could be argued that it's a copy of the
one used by the backend), and removed some code that I'm almost certain was
never used. (I've added assert()s to trigger in the cases where it would
have been used.)

our other engines do this, so there is little reason for BS2 to. I did add
a filtering mechanism so that mouse button releases and scroll wheeling is
ignored during normal gameplay, but I don't know if that was necessary
either.
Since this left little more than an empty husk where the Input class used
to be, I've eliminated that class and buried its remains in Sword2Engine.

so that it gets properly redrawn. Only the debugging code uses these
drawing primitives, so it's no big deal, but it's still the right thing to
do.

didn't do the change I was hoping for: the coyote stone is still partially
see-through, but perhaps it was in the original as well.
At least we no longer need to keep the buffer the mouse cursor is decoded
to, since that's now handled by the backend.

Part of this cleanup involved removing _unpauseZone. It was only used by
fnISpeak(), and as far as I could tell it was just because the original
code didn't trust amISpeaking() and getSpeechStatus() to return sensible
values directly after unpausing the game.

to keep its own copy of the sound data. It could be even further simplified
(I don't really see any reason for having two different sound queues), but
I seem to have reached a point of stability here and I don't want to jinx
it by making further changes yet.

I've also made the SaveGameHeader struct packed, which may break savegame
compatibility on some architectures (though not on the Linux and Windows
boxes I've tried it on). But I'm hoping it will guarantee, or at least make
it more likely, that savegames will be portable across architectures.

This removes a bunch of debugging code/commands that either didn't do
anything useful under ScummVM (e.g. "soft" and "hard"), or which did things
that was already easily avaiable elsewhere (e.g. "save" and "restore").
I didn't have the heart to remove the "tony" command, though. :-)

I think the reason I didn't do this from the start was that BS2 used to
call clearScene(), or whatever the function was called back then, between
every frame. Nowadays, it simply assumes that each frame will cover the
previous one.
Anyway, this change prevents the restart/restore dialog from appearing
briefly between the two intro cutscene animations.

One of the changes, I'm not quite sure about: buildDisplay() used to open
and close the _thisScreen.background_layer_id resource for each layer it
processed. In particular, it used to "release the screen resource before
cacheing the sprites".
I have no idea why, because I can't see any trace of a sprite cache, and I
can't think of any harm in keeping the resource open during the whole
render cycle. The resource is probably loaded into memory already anyway,
though its reference counter may be 0.

of how the savegame is loaded. (ScummVM adds two alternative methods: the
-x command-line parameter, and the restart/restore dialog at the beginning
of the game, which is only shown when there are savegames available.)
