A lot of this is random WIP from a while back, at least a month ago, and
is being committed now to get it out of the way so that other patches
can be brought in and integrated against it without causing headaches.
Also rolled into this commit is a way to distinguish plugin_unload from
exiting the game. This is required for another soon-to-be-integrated
feature to avoid crashing on exit, and could in theory also be used to
speed up unloading on exit in future. While we're at it, this also
avoids the need to linearly scan through the plugin list to do the
old branch unloading fix, because we can.
Rough summary of the other smaller stuff I can remember doing:
- Rework bitbuf a bit
- Add some cryptographic nonsense in ac.c (not final at all)
- Introduce the first couple of "chunklets" libraries as a sort-of
subproject of this one
- Tidy up random small bits and bobs
- Add source for a small keypair generation tool
- Rework democustom to be very marginally more useful

Another big one. Here's a list of things:
- Since the upcoming C23 standardises typeof(), use it as an extension
for the time being in order to allow passing arbitrary types as
macro/codegen parameters. It wouldn't have been a big leap to do this
even without standardisation since it's apparently an easy extension
to implement - and also, to be honest, this project is essentially glued
to Clang anyway so who cares.
- Likewise, bool, true and false are becoming pre-defined, so
pre-pre-define them now in order to get the benefit of not having to
remember one header everywhere.
- Really ungodly/amazing vcall macro stuff now allows us to call C++
virtual functions like regular C functions. It's pretty cool!
- Events can now take arbitrary parameters and come in two types:
regular events and predicates.
All this makes the base code even uglier but makes the feature
implementation nicer. In other words, it places more of the cognitive
burden on myself and less on other people who might want to contribute.
This is a good tradeoff, because I'm a genius.
