Since the players/civs already have cmpIdentity, use it.
This forces civs to have corresponding XML in the `special/players/`
folder.
Also moves the files from `special/player/` to `special/players/`
consistent with other folders. And moves the generic `player.xml` one
level up.

This was SVN commit r26298.
The UnitManager already lists all units, so we do not need to go through
the visual actor of entities to update them. This is faster and
decouples simulation & graphics code slightly.
Further, the simulation does not need to know about texture changes (see
also 410d2e883a), so remove those calls in Atlas.

This was SVN commit r26270.
RENDERDATA_UPDATE_COLOR was used to precompute lightEnv-dependent data
on the CPU. This is no longer done following engine upgrades, and in
particular d7d02a4740 which explictly always did this on the GPU.
ModelAbstract had a 'SetDirtyRec' hack for it because of decals, which
can also be removed. The 'dirty' bit of CRenderableObject is renderdata
for the specific item, never its props, so it never actually needs to be
recursive.
CheckLightEnv is also useless as a result, and removed.

This was SVN commit r26093.
It removes the software implementation intentionally. Because it
duplicates SDL functionality. But it might be added in future on demand.

Follows 34b1920e7b.
JSON functions and ToString are movec to their own headers.
Also clean out a few PersistentRooted usage to use the 2-phase init to
clean up scriptInterface usage.
With these functions split off, we can finally clean out headers and
remove ScriptInterface.h from most of them, in favour of smaller and
more precise headers.
Take the opportunity to clarify some comments regarding Mutability.

This was SVN commit r25434.
Follows 34b1920e7b.
This splits off the object-related functions, such as
[Set/Get/Has]Property, CreateObject, CreateArray, FreezeObject.
It also puts the definitions in the header itself, which might end up
with faster code here & there, though perhaps slower compilation time
(somewhat doubtful since we already included most things anyways).

Follows 34b1920e7b.
This separates StructuredClone & DeepCopy logic into its own header,
reducing the size of the monolithic ScriptInterface header.

This was SVN commit r25419.
Fixes 76acc4e146 (and some 2007-2010 commit).
ObjectManager needs the Simulation to be initialised, thus needs to come
after it in the class.

This was SVN commit r25222.
An actor file, as referenced by the VisualActor, can now define
different actors for different "quality level" setting.
In this initial version, the quality is handled directly by the object
manager.
Actor format impact:
- '<qualitylevels>' may be used as the root node, containing actor nodes
as children.
- such actor nodes can refer to a file, or to an inline actor, or
simply be inlined.
- such actor nodes may have a 'quality' attribute, specifying the
maximum quality level of this actor. By default, 255 (the maximum) is
implied.
- The actor format remains valid, but 'groups', 'variants', 'material',
'castshadow' and 'float' can be given a [minquality, maxquality[ range
via XML attributes. Outside of this range, the XML node is ignored
(making it possible to define, in a single actor file, several quality
levels).
Quality is a 0-255 value, with:
- Range 0-99 intended for lower level-of-detail actors (billboards,
etc.)
- Range 100-200 the 'normal' range for models. 100 is "low", 150
"medium", and 200 "high".
- Range 201-255 used for higher quality actors that might be used for
e.g. cinematics.
The range is wide to make it easier to add intermediate levels in the
future and it seemed easier given that an integer value of some kind was
required anyways.
Engine impacts:
- A new CActorDef class is introduced, wrapping an art/actors XML file
and its different quality levels. ObjectBase remains the definition of a
given 'actor', now at a given quality level.
- CActorDef imposes a maximal # of quality level for a particular actor
definition (5 currently).
- CUnit is made to refer to an Actor Definition explicitly, not a
particular ObjectBase.
- As a minor optimisation, variation keys are calculated on
pointer-to-sets-of-selections, instead of raw sets-of-selections, as
this reduces copying.
- some refactoring, including better const-correctness and hotloading
support via std::shared_ptr.
