Goober5000andClaude Fable 5.1 37b0b6ea82 Standardize isValid across the Lua API by making the types auto-generate it (#7761)
* 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.
