Many SEXP operators that work on subsystems use very similar code. This new function allows the operator implementations to be streamlined and makes future modifications easier. For example, the `change-ai-class` operator now works with names such as `<all turrets>` as well as specific subsystems.

Having a missing bolt texture is not fatal; TBP uses it for `b_invisible`. Modify the bolt checks to display a non-fatal warning if the bolt texture is explicitly specified but not found.
Many beams are lumped into the #Primary Weapons section of weapons.tbl, which will mark them as WP_LASER. Fix the few instances of code that are intended for beams that may have omitted most beams by mistake.
Randomization of weapon impact particle radius is also affected, but since this affects existing visual effects, it was not changed.
This refactors FontManager to improve it in several ways:
1. Change all the dynamic memory management to use `new`, rather than mixing `new` and `vm_malloc`
2. Change the current font to use an index rather than a pointer
3. Take advantage of more C++11 features to avoid redundant lookups
4. Use case-insensitive name comparison
5. Avoid overflowing the `fnt->filename` field
6. Use `Warning` rather than `Error` in a non-critical error situation
1. Don't set the `can_use_for_bank` flag to FALSE if the bank is primary but the weapon is secondary, or vice versa
2. Make sure to only restrict the weapons by bank if the ship has per-bank restrictions
In support of this, add `is_primary()` and `is_secondary()` helper functions to `weapon_info` and use them in logical places.
Follow-up to #6434. Fixes a few subtle bugs from that PR.
When clicking on a weapon bank, mark the weapons as enabled or disabled according to their compatibility for that bank. Do not actually prevent the weapons from being selected and dragged, as they may be dropped on a bank that isn't selected.
Also add a new `TriStateBool` for situations where the value is true, false, or unknown.
Fixes#6398.
A few addenda to PR #6364:
1. Use `std::swap` in the move constructor, since the fields are specifically being moved, not assigned
2. Fix off-by-one error when parsing firing patterns, and make the pattern count non-fatal
3. Standardize the setting of fire points since it's done in three different places, and in the case of `ship_set_default_weapons()`, `primary_firepoint_next_to_fire_index` was not reset to 0. It might be useful to refactor this code into its own function.
4. Make the setting of `primary_firepoint_next_to_fire_index` consistent between forward and reverse cycling
5. Remove a couple redundant `.clear()` calls and fix a typo
The recent cycle expansion PR (#6364) causes a CTD when change-ship-type is used. This PR fixes that crash by using `pm->n_guns` instead of 'MAX_SHIP_PRIMARY_BANKS' and clarifies the definition comment for the `pm->n_guns` to help avoid this kind of quandary in the furture.
Tested and works as expected.
Adds a new `+Ambient Sound:` field to mainhall.tbl, allowing any interface sound (or even no interface sound) to be used for the main hall ambient sound. The default ambient sound, as well as the sound played on the pilot select screen, is interface sound 12.
Implements #6421.
If the mission is edited in a text editor, and a ship is given too many weapon banks, this can cause issues in the weapon firing code. Protect against this by checking the number of banks when the ship is created.

Related to the previous two commits, the medals screen should use the actual all-time stats from the pilot file instead of the active campaign stats. This required tweaking the DCF "medals" debug command to work with the exported stats. Also, some C casts were changed to C++ and an obsolete variable was removed.
