* Automatically generate the isValid() Lua API function for handle types
If an ADE object's stored type has an isValid() member, ade_obj now registers an isValid function for it automatically. An explicit ADE_FUNC(isValid, ...) declared after the ADE_OBJ replaces the generated one, so types with special semantics (e.g. sound) keep their own. The 67 hand-written functions that merely delegated to the member are removed, and 26 types that previously exposed no isValid() gain one.

* Add ADE_OBJ_VALIDATOR for index-based Lua handles
Int-index handles (shipclass, weaponclass, team, etc.) can now declare their validity predicate with a single ADE_OBJ_VALIDATOR or ADE_OBJ_VALIDATOR_RANGE line after the ADE_OBJ. The registered validator drives the generated isValid() function and is also honored by ade_set_args when the mod table asks for nil instead of invalid objects, which previously never applied to these handles. The 19 hand-written range-check functions are replaced, and loadout_ship, default_primary, default_secondary, and support_rearm_pool_team gain isValid(). Add a validator to HudGauge while we're at it.
Also fully qualify the scripting namespace in LuaConvert.h so its templates can be instantiated from the unit tests.

This refactors the object_h struct to store objects as indexes rather than pointers. This is a prerequisite for making the collection of objects dynamic in the future. See also #6100.
Follow-up to #5800 and #5829.
When returning objects, be sure to use `ade_set_object_with_breed`, per the documentation on that function. This ensures that all relevant subclass information can be used.
Also fix the return value of streaminganim's isValid() function.
This maintains the type information which can be used for enforce
const-correctness and also for implementing more advanced ways of
handling the type information.
