In GL3.0 alpha test mode was deprecated and removed in GL3.3. We should
use discard/kill in shaders instead.
In shaders alpha test was removed in d3a24c26ba, in FFP it was removed
with FFP in b7e6811ea6.

This was SVN commit r26211.
CConfigDB is no longer a singleton, and its members are no longer
static.
This makes it possible to have several instances of it, useful for
testing of if we ever want to have different config profiles.
Also updates hooks to delete themselves on destruction, to fit a more
natural RAII pattern. Long-lived objects must take care to destroy hooks
before ConfigDB is reset.

This was SVN commit r25326.
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.

This was SVN commit r25210.
Two issues are fixed:
- Atlas on non-Mac crashed when started from within the game.
- MSAA options crashed if enabled on startup.
The underlying issues where improper shutdown, and assuming the renderer
was initialised than it might not be (in particular, the post-processor
wasn't).

This was SVN commit r23747.
This moves the renderer options into their own class to:@
- allow one to only include the rendering options, not the whole
renderer header, when one wants access to rendering options.
- centralise rendering changes and their side-effects.
- clean up code.
