Make these convenient functions even more convenient:
1. Change `object_get_model()` to `object_get_model_num()` and `object_get_model_instance()` to `object_get_model_instance_num()` to more accurately reflect what they do
2. Add new `object_get_model()` and `object_get_model_instance()` functions to return `polymodel*` and `polymodel_instance*` values.
* Fixes Debris not inheriting parent ship texture replacements
Debris chunks that use the same texture as the actual hull model are not updated when `texture-replace` methods are used. For example, a clean grey base textures that has texture replace via table or FRED is changed to red/brown. But when the ship is destroyed the debris objects are using the original lighter texture instead of the newer darker one.
#6154 provided the groundwork to fix this, but one step fell through the cracks; setting the debris hull textures to what the parent ship used.
This PR sets the debris texture replacements when debris is created to fix this (and fixes#2462).
Fix is tested and works as expected.
* cleanup setting shared
* get pmi correctly
This has been broken ever since commit 6c17ef09ab in 2005. Since `get_hull_pct()` did not return negative values, `percent_killed` was always 0. Allow negative values in this case.
As discovered by WouterSmits, campaigns with periods in their filenames caused issues with FSO's campaign handling. Specifically, in The Babylon Project, the EA-Minbari war v1.0.fc2 campaign would not save progress because FSO expected EA-Minbari war v1.fc2 in certain places. This is because the `_splitpath()` function attempted to remove an extension from a filename that already had it removed. For most campaigns this did not matter, but WouterSmits found a campaign where it did.
To solve this, there is now a new `util::get_file_part()` function to remove the path without removing the extension. This replaces `_splitpath()` for campaign files, as well as the similar `clean_filename()` and `GetFilePart()` functions in other places. All code paths were inspected for any chance of inadvertent extension adding, and Assertions were added to verify future code. The only potential problem area was `player:loadCampaignSavefile()` which now pre-removes the campaign extension if needed.
As described in #6445, the `warpIn()` script function did not work correctly for docked ships because the dock leader flag was not set. So, set the flag, but make sure to set it only for the first ship for which `warpIn()` is called. And make sure the flag is removed after the ship finishes arriving.
Also remove an `Int3()` in `shipfx_warpin_start()`. (This Int3() was not actually in the original Volition source code release.)
Fixes#6445.
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.
A recent-ish FSO feature, `$Turret Name:`, allows turrets to be displayed differently on the HUD depending on the weapon they carry. It is useful for scripts to be aware of this, so this PR adds a `TurretName` virtvar for weapon classes, as well as a `NameOnHUD` virtvar for subsystems. The `NameOnHUD` virtvar shares exactly the same code as the HUD uses, so any future HUD modifications will be reflected in scripting as well. This required a small amount of refactoring: changing `get_turret_subsys_name()` to return a value rather than stuffing a string, renaming it to `ship_subsys_get_name_on_hud()`, and moving it to ship.cpp.
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
There are a few places in the Lua script API where a variable could be some type of "object" or something that is not an "object" but is still useful - one example is the return value from oswpt:get(). With this function, scripts will be able to tell what the variable is without risking an exception.
Several locations in the code (notably `ai_info` and `waypoint_h`) previously stored pointers for waypoints and waypoint lists that need to be valid for more than one frame. Since both waypoint lists and waypoint paths may change size, resulting in vector reallocation, the information should be stored as indexes instead.
Fixes#6353.
Apparently virtvars can only return one value. This deprecates the virtvars and adds function equivalents for getting weapon class swarm info and corkscrew info. Fixes a bug reported by Woolie Wool in Discord.
1. a `hud-reset-color` SEXP operator, to complement the existing `hud-set-color` and set a gauge back to its configured color
2. `ConfigType` and `ObjectType` Lua virtvars which are essentially the built-in gauges' equivalents of `Name` for custom gauges
3. `getColor` and `setColor` Lua functions
Prevent compiler warnings caused by the `value` parameter of the external serializers hiding the `value` member of `std::integral_constant`.
Follow-up to #6276.
The return value of `lua_tostring()` is NULL if (and only if) the string conversion failed. Many places in the code did not check for this situation, which led to the crash in #6290.
Fixes#6290.

Patches the gamesnd system in several ways to properly fix the bug identified in #6196. Due to the way the new sound system was written, sounds with numeric IDs were not necessarily added in their indexed location, even though the code assumed (even prior to #6112) that this would be the case. The code now uses the proper index for both old *and* new style sounds. This is done by ensuring, in `gamesnd_parse_entry()`, that the vector contains an entry for the specified numeric ID before doing a search for that ID.
Due to the slightly modified population of the gamesnd vectors, the `Snds_iface_handle` vector is now populated after parsing the various sounds.tbl files rather than during parsing.
Separately, this makes consistent the handling of the `sound_entries` vector which could potentially be empty but also treated an empty state as an assertion failure.
* add API for glow point banks
Previously, a model API existed for glow points mounted on thrusters, but not glow points mounted on glow point banks. This adds glow point bank support. Also, this refactors and cleans up the implementation of the model API a bit.
* NULL -> nullptr
* make mission log dynamic
Change the mission log from a static array to a dynamic vector. This removes any chance of the mission log running into a limit (as regularly happened with the last mission of Shepherds before the limit bump) and also prevents strange mission bugs caused by culling obsolete entries.
This also unifies the API a bit by renaming the public `message_log_` function prefixes to `mission_log_`, removing the redundant `Num_log_lines` variable, and removing `Log_scrollback_vec` from the header.
Implements #5878.
