This adds JSON as an additional scripting documentation output format.
This can be used by external tools to examine the scripting
documentation and generate interface declarations or documentation for
any language. The existing documentation code is left largely in place.
If various functions on l_Control_Info were called while Player was nullptr, FSO would CTD due to a null pointer dereference. This commit adds nullptr checks to avoid the problem.
When using a string to define the appropriate control in the useButtonControl() function (in l_Control_Info), the command definition was being divided by 32 when the appropriate mathematical operator was modulo; as a result, the only controls that could actually wind up being referenced are these four: TARGET_NEXT, MAX_THROTTLE, END_MISSION, and MULTI_MESSAGE_HOSTILE. By using the modulo operator, the string lookup now appropriately references the relevant button.
This maintains the type information which can be used for enforce
const-correctness and also for implementing more advanced ways of
handling the type information.
