* Prevent Crashes from Weapons being deleted during the collision process
This puts in some safety checks to keep FSO from crashing while doing collision detection when close to the object limit.
* Remove Problematic Assertions and INT3's
Keeps FSO from crashing when low on Object slots from failed weapon and beam creations.
* Simplify Code with a good suggestion

GCC 10.1.0 complained about the filename overwriting itself in the old version of the code. This was a false positive, but the code wasn't terribly clear, so I cleaned it up a bit.
The largest new feature is that it is now possible to include other
files into the RML by using the "include" tag. This is useful for making
markup files more modular.
Also added some more options for existing things (e.g. built-in detail
options).
This is a system for storing arbitrary data in the config file and then
easily retrieving it later on. This has full Lua support for exposing
the available options in a custom UI and changing the values of the
options. This ported some of the existing command line options over to
the new system which is opt-in for the moment by using a mod_table flag.
This allows the WE_Default warp type to be used with any warp fireball in fireball.tbl. The fireball can be used by specifying its unique ID for the existing $Warpin type and $Warpout type options in ships.tbl. The warp type is managed by bitwise-OR'ing a flag to the fireball's index.
The warp-effect SEXP can now specify other animations from fireball.tbl that are not necessarily the standard or Knossos animations. Additionally, the SEXP can now specify the duration for the opening and closing of the warp effect.
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 introduces a new mechanism for handling bit flags. Instead of using an int (or two, or three) to write bits into, this uses the std::bitset in a wrapper class that accepts an enum class as input. This means that certain classes of errors we've had a few of in the engine, where a coder used the wrong set of flags or checked them against the wrong variable (SF_STEALTH vs SIF_STEALTH, for example) can now be detected at a compiler level rather than not at all.
