- New optional landscape generator (TerraGenesis Perlin)
- Load heightmaps (either BMP or PNG)
- Progress dialog while generating worlds (no longer a 'hanging' screen)
- New dialogs for NewGame, Create Scenario and Play Heightmap
- Easier to configure your landscape
- More things to configure (tree-placer, ..)
- Speedup of world generation
- New console command 'restart': restart the map EXACTLY as it was when you
first started it (needs a game made after or with this commit)
- New console command 'getseed': get the seed of your map and share it with
others (of course only works with generated maps)
- Many new, world generation related, things
- Many internal cleanups and rewrites

There's exactly one implemented function (unbarring a level crossing) and one place where it can be triggered (a train leaves a level crossing)
It's a bit overkill, so just handle this one case where it can happen
Added RandomTile/RandomTileSeed functions to generate a random tile.
Changed landscape routines so they don't assume that the Y map side is a power of two. (support for this is not complete, though)
Changed some frequently used map macros to not compute the values each time.
Silence some warnings on MSVC.
- CodeChange: remove cmd-misuses CmdStartScenario() and CmdDestroyCompanyHQ()
- Fix (invisible): when parameter checking CmdRestoreOrderIndex() the vehicle did not have its orders yet, so it would fail. So move doing this until AFTER the orders have been added back in RestoreVehicleOrders()
- CodeChange: To correctly accept engine-prototypes, the best-player checking has been moved to its own function, I hope it functions the same as before.
- CodeChange: Added symbolic types of PlayerID, OrderID and EngineID. For engines also added GetEngine() and IsEngineIndex(), similar to the other such functions.
- CodeChange: To correctly build industries, some tables have been moved to build_industry.h. The only way to find out currently if an industry is valid in a climate is by looping all industries and checking if it matches. Also to comply with the patch setting build_rawmaterial_industries, it is assumed that these industries do not accept any cargo of any type. This can and probably should changed in the future to some flag in their struct. Also use _opt_ptr instead of _opt.
- CodeChange: implemented the HQ checking code inspired by MarkR2 in "[ 1190944 ] Many commands not checked for security". Unfortunately it is impossible to prevent only deleting a HQ by a modified client atm.
- CodeChange: For insert order and modify order their parameters are implicitely truncated to 8 bits, instead of the 16 bits said in the comments.
