This refactors the ship registry and the OSWPT struct to store data as indexes rather than pointers. This is a prerequisite for making these collections dynamic in the future. See also #5800.

1. Deprecate the old set-jumpnode-name sexp now that there is a set-jumpnode-display-name
2. Make the display name design consistent with ships and weapons; in particular add a `HasDisplayName()` function and automatically generate the display name for hash-truncated names
3. Keep the display name in sync when the name is changed in the FRED dialog
4. Fix the overriding of hash-truncated names with display names on the HUD
5. Fix the incorrect setting of the alphacolor flag when using FRED
6. Fix array out-of-bounds access when no object is selected
Follow-up to #5401.
1) A comprehensive fix for the is_target_dying variable
2) Also do distance correctly for non-player target brackets by adding a check that we're dealing with the target before using the current target distance. Then also calc distance if it is not the player target.
3) Update comments and checks to be consistent
Many of these did not reflect how the variable was actually used, so update the comments.
Several careful tweaks to improve handling of distance as measured on the HUD.
1) Use `Player_ai->current_target_distance` for rendered HUD gauges which display the distance, because the distance is calculated in `hud_update_frame` (which is called from `game_simulation_frame`) and is used for a couple of these gauges already. This change makes it all consistent.
1b) Some gauges which depend on distance but do not actually display it (e.g. the lead indicator) still calculate their distance immediately before using it. I didn't change these because a) the calculation is still correct, even if redundant, and b) there is a small possibility of `hud_update_frame` changing the target after the distance is calculated, so these gauges are guaranteed to have the correct calculation.
2) On discovering that the `evaluate_ship_as_closest_target` specifically switched from bbox-distance to center-distance, I changed all "target closest X" functions to consistently evaluate center-distance. I believe Volition did this to prioritize small fighters when dogfighting next to large ships.
3) Moved `hud_target_change_check` below the computation of `Player_ai->current_target_distance` because it uses the computed distance to determine the acceleration trend. This way it will use the distance of the current frame, not the previous one.
4) Minor move of a `Target_static_looping` check into `hud_target_change_check` because it made sense.
Several things going on here:
1) refactor `get_display_string()` to `get_display_name()` to be more precise
2) likewise, refactor `alt_name` to `display_name`
3) automatically generate display names when parsing the ship, ship class, and weapon class for the first time
4) remove the on-the-fly truncation of names with hash symbols
Basically this subsumes the `end_string_at_first_hash_symbol` logic into the display name. Rather than truncate the name every time it's displayed, truncate it once when it's parsed. This takes advantage of the previous display name infrastructure, since display names are a superset of the case of truncating the hash symbol.
This also has the benefit of now allowing hash symbols within display names. When updating Destiny of Peace, I noticed that "Lockheed Shuttle #4" would no longer display properly; and it was not previously possible to fix this even with display names.
I could pull out the `get_display_string()` and `alt_name` renaming into a separate PR if desired.
Removed a lot of unused functions.
This is mostly a cleanup of a prior refactoring.
There where a lot of unimplemented functions remaining from renaming.
Removed several outcommented parts of code.
I also fixed a few issues where the internal char array was used as a
mutable string which changed the string after it was parsed which is not
good(TM).
This also replaces all user-facing occurences of usages of name to use
the new function so that the correct, possibly translated, name is displayed
to the user.
The previous version used NanoVG which caused quite a serious FPS drop.
This adds a buffer batching class which groups line drawing operations
together and submits them to the GPU with a single draw call.
update hud_num_make_mono (& callers) to handle the font number
add partial support for specifying special char indexes for individual fonts
