db5760ee83 Optimize memory by freeing up SDL2 textures
* Added to the F3 Debug Overlay is a "Texture:" label that counts the number
  of textures currently loaded by the (SDL2) render engine.
* Added Teardown() functions to Level, Doodad and the Chunker they both use
  to free up SDL2 textures for all their cached graphics.
* The Canvas.Destroy() function now cleans up all textures that the Canvas
  is responsible for: calling the Teardown() of the Level or Doodad, calling
  Destroy() on all level actors, and cleaning up Wallpaper textures.
* The Destroy() method of the game's various Scenes will properly Destroy()
  their canvases to clean up when transitioning to another scene. The
  MainScene, MenuScene, EditorScene and PlayScene.
* Fix the sprites package to actually cache the ui.Image widgets. The game
  has very few sprites so no need to free them just yet.

Some tricky places that were leaking textures have been cleaned up:

* Canvas.InstallActors() destroys the canvases of existing actors before it
  reinitializes the list and installs the replacements.
* The DraggableActor when the user is dragging an actor around their level
  cleans up the blueprint masked drag/drop actor before nulling it out.

Misc changes:

* The player character cheats during Play Mode will immediately swap out the
  player character on the current level.
* Properly call the Close() function instead of Hide() to dismiss popup
  windows. The Close() function itself calls Hide() but also triggers
  WindowClose event handlers. The Doodad Dropper subscribes to its close
  event to free textures for all its doodad canvases.

661c5f4365 Loadscreen Update & Window Resize Fixes
* Loadscreen: put the progress bar between the Title and Subtitle so it
  looks good even on mobile landscape orientation (narrow height)
* Bugfixes around window OnResize events: the loadscreen handles
  resizing correctly now and the Level Editor (or w/e) will also be the
  right size if you resized the window during loading.

d16a8657aa Window Icon, UI Polish
* SDL2 builds of the game now set their app window icon.
* Create/Edit Level window is updated to show a tabbed UI to create a
  new Level or a new Doodad. The dedicated main menu button to create a
  new doodad (which immediately prompted for its size) is replaced by
  this new tab's UI.
* Edit Drawing/Play Level window is more responsive to smaller screen
  sizes by drawing fewer columns of filenames.
* Bugfix: the Alert and Confirm modals always re-center themselves on
  screen, especially to adapt between Portrait or Landscape mode on a
  mobile device.

fb5a8a1ae8 Async Giant Screenshot, Player Physics and UI Polish
* The "Giant Screenshot" feature takes a very long time, so it is made
  asynchronous. If you try and run a second one while the first is busy,
  you get an error flash. You can continue editing the level, even
  playtest it, or load a different level, and it will continue crunching
  on the Giant Screenshot and flash when it's finished.
* Updated the player physics to use proper Velocity to jump off the
  ground rather than the hacky timer-based fixed speed approach.
* FlashError() function to flash "error level" messages to the screen.
  They appear in orange text instead of the usual blue, and most error
  messages in the game use this now. The dev console "error <msg>"
  command can simulate an error message.
* Flashed message fonts are updated. The blue font now uses softer
  stroke and shadow colors and the same algorithm applies to the orange
  error flashes.

Some other changes to player physics:

* Max velocity, acceleration speed, and gravity have been tweaked.
* Fast turn-around if you are moving right and then need to go left.
  Your velocity resets to zero at the transition so you quickly get
  going the way you want to go.

Some levels that need a bit of love for the new platforming physics:

* Tutorial 3.level

215ed5c847 Stabilize Load Screen by Deferring SDL2 Calls
* The loading screen for Edit and Play modes is stable and the risk of
  game crash is removed. The root cause was the setupAsync() functions
  running on a background goroutine, and running SDL2 draw functions
  while NOT on the main thread, which causes problems.
* The fix is all SDL2 Texture draws become lazy loaded: when the main
  thread is presenting, any Wallpaper or ui.Image that has no texture
  yet gets one created at that time from the cached image.Image.
* All internal game logic then uses image.Image types, to cache bitmaps
  of Level Chunks, Wallpaper images, Sprite icons, etc. and the game is
  free to prepare these asynchronously; only the main thread ever
  Presents and the SDL2 textures initialize on first appearance.
* Several functions had arguments cleaned up: Canvas.LoadLevel() does
  not need the render.Engine as (e.g. wallpaper) textures don't render
  at that stage.

3d8eedce35 Choice of palette when creating a new level
* In the "New Level" dialog, a "Palette:" option shows a MenuButton
  drop-down with options: Default, Colored Pencil, and Blueprint. These
  control the set of colors the new level starts with.

47cca8c7c6 Palette Editor and Doodad Dropper Windows
* Start the program window maximized with the `-w maximized` CLI option.
* Move the Doodad Palette off the right-side dock of the Editor Scene and
  into its own pop-up window: the DoodadDropper.
* Shrink the width of the Color Palette panel and show only the colors in
  the buttons. The name of the swatch is available in the mouse-over tooltip.
* Added an "Edit" button to the Color Palette. It opens a Palette Editor
  window where you can rename, change colors and attributes of existing colors
  OR insert new colors into your palette. (Deleting colors not yet supported).
* level.Chunker gets a Redraw method: invalidates all cached textures of all
  chunks forcing the level to redraw itself, possibly with an updated palette.

38614ee280 Tighten Doodad JavaScript API, User Documentation
* Tightens up the surface area of API methods available to the
  JavaScript VMs for doodads. Variables and functions are carefully
  passed in one-by-one so the doodad script can only access intended
  functions and not snoop on undocumented APIs.
* Wrote tons of user documentation for Doodad Scripts: documented the
  full surface area of the exposed JavaScript API now that the surface
  area is known and limited.
* Early WIP code for the Campaign JSON

f0101ba048 The Window Manager Update
* Take advantage of the new Window Manager feature of the UI toolkit.
* Move the MenuScene's "New Level" and "Play/Edit Level" windows into
  stand-alone functions in new pkg/windows/ package. The 'windows'
  package is isolated from the rest of Doodle and communicates using
  config variables and callback functions to avoid circular dependency.
* MenuScene calls the window constructors from the new package.
* Add an "Options" button to the Menu Bar in the Editor Scene, which
  opens the "New Level" window to allow changing the wallpaper or
  bounding type of the level currently being edited.
* Move the cheat codes into their own file, cheats.go

f8ca9a0921 Tooltips Update
* Update code for recent changes in UI toolkit around event handlers for
  buttons.
* Add tooltips to various buttons in the Editor Mode. The left toolbar
  shows the names of each tool, the Doodad Palette shows the title of
  each doodad and the Color Palette shows the swatch attributes (solid,
  fire, water, etc.)

cb02feff1d Add Switches, Fire/Water Collision and Play Menu
* New doodads: Switches.
  * They come in four varieties: wall switch (background element, with
    "ON/OFF" text) and three side-profile switches for the floor, left
    or right walls.
  * On collision with the player, they flip their state from "OFF" to
    "ON" or vice versa. If the player walks away and then collides
    again, the switch flips again.
  * Can be used to open/close Electric Doors when turned on/off. Their
    default state is "off"
  * If a switch receives a power signal from another linked switch, it
    sets its own state to match. So, two "on/off" switches that are
    connected to a door AND to each other will both flip on/off when one
    of them flips.
* Update the Level Collision logic to support Decoration, Fire and Water
  pixel collisions.
  * Previously, ALL pixels in the level were acting as though solid.
  * Non-solid pixels don't count for collision detection, but their
    attributes (fire and water) are collected and returned.
* Updated the MenuScene to support loading a map file in Play Mode
  instead of Edit Mode. Updated the title screen menu to add a button
  for playing levels instead of editing them.
* Wrote some documentation.

b17ca34de2 Bindata: Embedding Doodads and Levels (for WASM)
* Use `go-bindata` to embed built-in doodads and levels directly into
  the Doodle binary. `make bindata` produces the bindata source file.
* Add `FromJSON()` method to Levels and Doodads to load objects from
  JSON strings in memory (for bindata built-ins or WASM ajax requests)
* Update file loading functions to check the embedded bindata files.
  * pkg/config.go#EditFile:
    * Supports editing a level from bindata (TODO: remove this support)
    * If the "assets/levels/%(simple-name.level)" exists in bindata,
      edits that drawing.
    * No such support for editing built-in doodads.
    * WASM has no filesystem access to edit files except built-in
      levels (yet)
  * pkg/doodads#ListDoodads:
    * Prepends built-in doodads from bindata to the returned list.
    * WASM: no filesystem access so gets only the built-ins.
  * pkg/doodads#LoadFile:
    * Checks built-in bindata store first for doodad files.
    * WASM: tries an HTTP request if not found in bindata but can go no
      further if not found (no filesystem access)
  * pkg/filesystem#FindFile:
    * This function finds a level/doodad by checking all the places.
    * If the level or doodad exists in bindata built-in, always returns
      its system path like "assets/doodads/test.doodad"
    * WASM: always returns the built-in candidate path even if not found
      in bindata so that ajax GET can be attempted.
  * pkg/level#ListSystemLevels:
    * New function that lists the system level files, similar to the
      equivalent doodads function.
    * Prepends the bindata built-in level files.
    * WASM: only returns the built-ins (no filesystem support)
    * Desktop: also lists and returns the assets/levels/ directory.
  * pkg/level#LoadFile:
    * Like the doodads.LoadFile, tries from built-in bindata first, then
      ajax request (WASM) before accessing the filesystem (desktop)
* Menu Scene: TODO, list the built-in levels in the Load Level menu.
  This feature will soon go away when WASM gets its own storage for user
  levels (localStorage instead of filesystem)

3d3561b8e6 Blueprint Theme Palette
* Fix the EditorUI not showing the correct palette baked into the level
  and only showing the default. This was tricky because the palette UI
  can only be configured at setup time but not updated later.
* Add a new default palette for the Blueprint theme. Blueprint has a
  dark background, so the palette colors should be bright. This palette
  is chosen when you start a map with the blueprint wallpaper.
* Add a background Canvas to the MenuScene. In the "New Level" screen,
  the background canvas will update to show the wallpaper settings
  you've chosen as a preview of the level theme you're about to create.

7281fcbf91 Add "Load Drawing" Menu UI
* To the MenuScene add the "Load Drawing" window UI.
* Displays the user's Levels and Doodads using rows of buttons, 4
  buttons per row. Clicking the button loads the EditorScene with that
  filename.
* Free Version does not display the Doodads label or button on this
  menu screen.

4dd1bebc5f Add MenuScene with New Level UI
* Debug mode: no longer enables the DebugOverlay (F3) by default, but
  does now insert the current FPS counter into the window title bar.
* ui.Frame: set a default "mostly transparent" BG color so the frame
  background doesn't render as white.
* Add the MenuScene which will house the game's main menus.
* The "New Level" menu is first to be added.
  * UI lets you pick Page Type and Wallpaper using radio buttons.
  * Page Type: Unbounded, Bounded (default), No Negative Space, Bordered
  * Fix bugs in uix.Canvas to fully support all these page types.
