This changes the pilot reading code to always use JSON files for storing
the pilot data. Old pilots are converted to the new format when FSO
starts and after that point only JSON pilots will be used.
This adds a new class which allows to create type safe resource handle
types. At the moment, the engine uses ints pretty much everywhere for
providing handles to resources created by the specific subsystems. Since
all ints are the same to the C/C++ typesystem it is perfectly legal to
pass a sound handle to the graphics API as a buffer handle which will
obviously cause issues.
This adds a new type called "ID" which is a wrapper class for a generic
handle but with added type safety. An instance of this class cannot be
passed to a function expecting another type of handle which provided
compile-time type safety for these APIs.
As an initial test I converted the game sound handles to this new type.
I already found a bug in the mainhall system thanks to this new type.
The mainhall used the game sound handles as sound instance handles which
probably meant that that specific code never really worked right. I
removed the code since there was no better alternative for fixing it.
This allows to use standard TrueType Fonts for text rendering in FSO. It uses the NanoVG library which provides the ability of drawing 2D shapes. This library is used for most 2D operations now and can also be used directly by using the PathRenderer class.
Should resolve issues 1093435 and 1093437. These issues cannot cause crashes because the denominator is indirectly checked, but it's good to change to get coverity and other future diagnosing programs to stop yelling at us.
Converts Ship_info from a ship_info[] to an SCP_vector<ship_info>. ship_info now has proper constructors, assignment operators, and a destructor. Num_ship_classes removed; various references to Num_ship_classes and/or MAX_SHIP_CLASSES (which remains for various other structures which need it) changed to Ship_info.size() instead.
This doesn't make the ship class limit dynamic, but it is a preparatory step to get there.
Also includes support for more than two mainhall resolutions, zooming
so one mainhall can adapt to multiple resolutions, setting new mainhall
fonts, help overlays for all resolutions and adjustable tooltip padding.
Also allows preload screens to be any resolution & aspect ratio.

In other words, a pilot can only be used in the same language it was
created with. Checks both the initial selection screen and in the
barracks.
Also fixes issue with PLR version being ignored in pilotfile::verify()

MASSIVE thanks to Mjn.Mixael and Blue Planet for tireless constant testing.
(It's still not perfect, but it probably wouldn't be where it is at without them)
Spans a lot from initial commit to AP Branch in r6835.

change load order for campaign loading to a full check: Player-specified -> BUILTIN_CAMPAIGN -> First Avaiable.
clean up the getting of a list of available campaigns
fix simroom issue where single missions, with the [V] icon, would display wrong (this was a retail bug, but it doesn't show normally)
fix bug where, if a campaign failed to load, it would still appear available for savefile useage
fix bug where, when resetting the campaign info, the num_missions var wasn't 0'd and it could cause a sexp Assert() during reset
