-Tweaked compression conditional to a switch-case format, looking towards adding several comrpession algorithms; haven't removed the previous "compressed" boolean yet.
-Added dynamically allocated name strings for lumps; haven't removed the previous name field.
-Added rudimentary PK3 central directory recognition; nothing is actually loaded in the end.
Falling rocks fix
This fixes the rock spawners' rocks not being removed if they rolled down to the ground from a slope rather than bouncing (see https://mb.srb2.org/showthread.php?t=41963)

No doubling texture heights plz
If you didn't know, apparently SRB2 was hardcoded to double the height of 64x64 textures created using TX_START/TX_END. This has frustrated some a lot. This branch removes this hack at last (there doesn't appear to be any visual issues resulting from removing it, anyway).
srb2win-nodoubletexheight.exe can be found in my FTP folder.

First person HUD drown numbers fix
This branch fixes the following issues with the first person HUD when drowning:
* "0" turning into Sonic's drown sprite, since both sprites happen to be named DRWNA0
* SF_MACHINE's special drowning numbers from 3rd person not being used

MI's unimportant code cleanup
Just removing a bunch of unused variables/function prototypes from the source code and similarly minor stuff, nothing here should change gameplay much (if at all).

MI minor refactoring
Just moving the locations of some consvar externs from d_netcmd.h to other header files in which I think they should REALLY belong. Ultimately this should not affect gameplay whatsoever, it's just code cleanup.

doesn't draw off of the sides, and doesn't ignore snapping or widths for reasons that don't make sense
(for instance: the green bar in MI's test script showed *above* the blue one in non-green resolutions in 2.1.17)
Command-line skin selecting fix
Fixed http://mb.srb2.org/showthread.php?t=42312.
Also, fixed being able to change your skin colour during credits/cutscenes in singleplayer.

Revamped Level Select (platter view)
Seriously revamped every level select instance in the game to use a more attractive and easier to navigate platter view, including:
* Game CLEAR! save (Title/Pause menus)
* Secrets Menu (including custom ones)
* Record Attack/NiGHTS Mode
* Server creation (Online/2P)
* MP Pause level select (Online/2P)
As a result, the layout of the last three above menus has been changed to varying degrees of difference.
Also, bonus feature: using level select (or MAP MAPxx without -force) in Co-op multiplayer won't reset your score, will keep any lives you have above the startinglives variable, and will not take away all your emeralds. The -force thing prevents both warping directly to special stages to rack up the emeralds AND ensures there IS a way to start a new game.

Also, LF2_WIDEICON lets you do this. https://gfycat.com/MenacingClearAngora

Suggested default settings
Making a merge request for suggested new default settings, because saying "hey, I think this would be a better default, you guys should try it" in IRC won't actually get people to give you opinions on them ;p
Camera distance is 160 now, height is 25, and speed is 0.3 (previously 128, 20, 0.25, respectively). Mouse sensitivity on both axes is now 12, previously 35. The default move/look/jump/spin keys is Mystic's proposed scheme from the New Player Experiences topic (https://mb.srb2.org/showthread.php?t=42095).
Camera settings also now can save to your config.cfg, and they won't try resetting back to the default at every chance it gets. (~~As a side effect, analog mode won't have higher cam_dist anymore. Poor analog mode, no one cries for you.~~ Now increases cam_dist in analog mode by x1.2!) This makes it so everything that's different can be easily reverted back to the older setting.

* Getting hit whilst on a swinging mace doesn't send you off in roll/jump state.
* P_GetJumpFlags replaces a bunch of copypasted code.
* Homing attacking a spring sends you directly on its path, rather than rocketing off in the direction you were preiously hurtling in.
