Project::OSiRiON

Add an improved options menu with video, audio, controls and game settings.

TODO

- menu to configure game settings
- merge settings menus into a single, tabbed window

DONE
- menu to configure controls
- menu to configure player settings (name, colors, ..)

The current inventory menu is too confusing.

TODO

mounting/unmounting a weapon moves it back and forth
between slot and inventory

Windows is extremely slow to load compared to other platforms.

$time ./src/osirion +connect +quit

Linux: 3.3 seconds
Windows: 23.7 seconds

This may be related to the binaries being produced via mingw:

The best solution is to probably use a Visual C++ toolchain for windows binaries.

Right now the client keyboard input code is hardwired
to a US-QWERTY layout. It should use the native keyboard
layout of the user.

At the same time, the code should be tested for UTF8.

I propose a key bind(toggle) to allow the ship to be steered via the mouse in the same method as the joystick: directly steering based on relative mouse position(locking the cursor in the center of the screen).

The corrent ui code has default fonts and font size in ui::root().
They have to bo moved to the ui::Palette class and handled like
colors and related settings.

The initial default fonts should be set in the ui::Pallette class.

It might be better to merge ui-style related settings
into a single ui::Stylesheet class and read settings from a .css
file.
