* shields give you 1000 points
* redundant shields don't make you puase

Treating " as whitespace in TEXTURES (and animdefs too i guess)
SLADE adds this character in its TEXTURES editor and makes SRB2 cry unless the lump is manually edited; this just treats it as whitespace so we don't have to think too hard about it.
Also, two I_Errors now refer to the correct lump name.

Proper barrel sky distortion
Skies now use proper barrel distortion in both axes, rather than just the x-axis (i.e. just horizontally) as in all previous SRB2 versions. Credit goes to Nev3r for the original change and idea.
Was going to make an option for a non-barrel distorted sky, assuming barrel distortion is the default, but I just can't quite get it to work in a way that is pleasing to the eyes. So I've not bothered with it here for now, unless someone objects to barrel distorted skies for any reason?

FOF wall slope skewing
FOF walls now can optionally skew with respect to slopes (software mode only currently):
* Upper Unpegged on the CONTROL linedef enables wall skewing
* Lower Unpegged on the IN-LEVEL linedefs ^1 determine which slope to skew with respect to (off = top slope, on = bottom slope)
* If Transfer Line is used however, Lower Unpegged on the control sector's linedefs does the above's job instead
^1 (this is because they already control pegging of individual FOF walls as it is, so this is for convenience and my sanity that they also deal with skewing)

Fixes to horizontal spring collision
Fixed various issues arising from collision with exclusively horizontal springs. Thamks to @Inuyasha for the heads up! Of note:
* If you hold down your jump button whilst jumping into it, you no longer immediately use your ability.
* Characters with (CA_DOUBLEJUMP && CA2_MULTIABILITY) or CA_FLOAT or CA_HOVER no longer lose track of their jump count.
Also:
* Upped the strength of info.c's red and yellow horizontal springs.

Horizon lines
Horizon lines for software mode! Place a Linedef type 41 somewhere on a one-sided linedef and it'll do fancy rendering hacks to draw the adjacent floor/ceiling to the "horizon". One small thing to sort out when I remember to do so, but this is good enough for merge already.

FF_ANIMATE additions: globally synced animations
FF_GLOBALANIM = makes the animation synced to the level's timer, so all objects will display the same frame at the same time
I mean, doesn't that look so much prettier?
There's also some changes to FF_MIDDLESTARTCHANCE (FF_ANIMATE behavior was split due to not acting consistent between that and SPR2 behavior).

* Object number up/down is now assigned to ringslinger weapon next/prev. SO much nicer to use, especially since most people have that stuff bound to the scroll wheel.
* introducing the new friend, SH_FORCEHP (which is used as a bitmask to get the extra hitpoints of a force-shield user)
* P_DamageMobj now considers the unimplemented shield constants as well as the implemented ones.
* When not pressing any direction, you now go backwards by default - to emphasise that this is primarily for defensive, not offensive, purposes.
* The camera can now handle the player going backwards without them going completely off-screen.
* Fixed some overzealous checks.
* The spinfire ring is now capable of damaging enemies. (god, what a terrible hack this is)
* When ground pounding, you now bounce off the floor a little bit to make the ability less spammable.
* The Dodge Dash
* Allows you to dash - no control, no falling, no key response - for 2 + (number of extra shield hitpoints) tics.
* If you're holding movement keys down, you dash in the direction you're holding - otherwise, you dash directly forward.
* You're spinning (spindash spin, not jump spin) until your dash is over, then your momentum is cut down significantly and you end up in falling frames.
* It may not necessarily be super useful for Sonic, but it helps the other characters.

Animated sky support
What it says on the tin: skies can be animated textures now. Just set them up as normal animated textures (keeping in mind the starting texture still has to comply with the SKYn/SKYnn/SKYnnn naming format) and hey presto, your sky animates.

* If you hold down your jump button whilst jumping into it, you no longer immediately use your ability.
* Characters with CA_DOUBLEJUMP and CA2_MULTIABILITY no longer lose track of their jump count.
* Camerascale, shieldscale, height and spinheight are now player attributes which are set to the skin attribute on skin change, not read directly from the skin.
* P_GetPlayerHeight and P_GetPlayerSpinHeight are now macros instead of functions.
* Extra protection against switching to a locked skin.
* flips the sprite ala MFE_VERTICALFLIP except you don't need to flip the direction of gravity for the object just to draw upside down
* stacks properly with reverse gravity
* Sets the sortscale of the mobj to that of its tracer.
* Basically, Smiles' tails won't clip through shields thanks to this.

* Also has support for chains of MF2_LINKDRAW!
More slope fixes (aka sorry guys I made another quick SUGOI fix)
Another slopes fix branch!
This branch currently includes a fix for:
* Knuckles gliding into a slope while in 2D mode causes him to try to "climb" on air above them, if the original non-sloped height is higher. Unfortunately he still tries to grab onto places that he can't really climb on, but at least now it's on the slope itself and not in mid-air lol. This issue is encountered in SUGOI's Retro Hill Zone, if you want to check for yourselves.
* Bustable FOF-busting code for both players AND pushables not accounting for slopes
* (Unrelated to slopes): Fix FF_SHATTERBOTTOM FOFs acting like THZ goop when stood on; I added this fix as a bonus because I encountered it in a test map of mine for the bustables fix
(Other fixes may or may not appear here in the near future, I haven't decided yet. Don't wait on me to get in any further fixes before merging, that said)

Last-minute NiGHTS exiting bugfix
One single-line fix concerning the end of NiGHTS maps. Extremely small, literally zero side effects here, the only reason I'm not committing directly to master (aside from ettiquette) is that I don't have the ability to do so.
* The NiGHTS drone had a single tic of visibility when you hit the goal, which is evident stepping frame by frame through http://gfycat.com/ComplicatedComposedAoudad (the contents of which may or may not make it into 2.2). This is no longer the case.
