864156da53 Settings Window + Bugfix
* Added a Settings window for game options, such as enabling the
  horizontal toolbars in Edit Mode. The Settings window also has a
  Controls tab showing the gameplay buttons and keyboard shortcuts.
* The Settings window is available as a button on the home screen OR
  from the Edit->Settings menu in the EditScene.
* Bugfix: using WASD to move the player character now works better and
  is considered by the game to be identical to the arrow key inputs. Boy
  now updates his animation based on these keys, and they register as
  boolean on/off keys instead of affected by key-repeat.
* Refactor the boolProps: they are all part of usercfg now, and if you
  run e.g. "boolProp show-all-doodads true" and then cause the user
  settings to save to disk, that boolProp will be permanently enabled
  until turned off again.

d6f86487f5 Horizontal Toolbars Option for Editor Mode
On small screen sizes like the Pinephone, the toolbars in the Level
Editor are best made horizontal across the top and bottom of the screen
leaving more room for the drawing.

Enable it with a boolProp for now, and then reopen the level editor:

    boolProp horizontalToolbars true

When launching `doodle -w mobile` it will automatically enable this
option.

6af60f1128 Improve Collision Detection: More Active w/ Actors
* Improve the collision detection algorithm so that Actor OnCollide
  scripts get called more often WHILE an actor is moving, to prevent a
  fast-moving actor from zipping right through the "solid" hitbox and
  not giving the subject actor time to protest the movement.
* It's implemented by adding a `Settled` boolean to the OnCollide event
  object. When the game is testing out movement, Settled=false to give
  the actor a chance to say "I'm solid!" and have the moving party be
  stopped early.
* After all this is done, for any pair of actors still with overlapping
  hitboxes, OnCollide is called one last time with Settled=true. This is
  when the actor should run its actions (like publishing messages to
  other actors, changing state as in a trapdoor, etc.)
* The new collision detection algorithm works as follows:
  * Stage 1 is the same as before, all mobile actors are moved and
    tested against level geometry. They record their Original and New
    position during this phase.
  * Stage 2 is where we re-run that movement but ping actors being
    intersected each step of the way. We trace the steps between
    Original and New position, test OnCollide handler, and if it returns
    false we move the mobile actor to the Last Good Position along the
    trace.
  * Stage 3 we run the final OnCollide(Settled=true) to let actors run
    actions they wanted to for their collide handler, WITHOUT spamming
    those actions during Stage 2.
* This should now allow for tweaking of gravity speed and player speed
  without breaking all actor collision checking.

fd649b7ab1 Doodad CLI Tool Features; Write Lock and Hidden
* The `doodad` CLI tool got a lot of new commands:
  * `doodad show` to verbosely print details about Levels and Doodads.
  * `edit-level` and `edit-doodad` to update details about Levels and
    Doodads, such as their Title, Author, page type and size, etc.
* Doodads gain a `Hidden bool` that hides them from the palette in
  Editor Mode. The player character (Blue Azulian) is Hidden.
* Add some boolProps to the balance/ package and made a dynamic system
  to easily configure these with the in-game dev console.
  * Command: `boolProp list` returns available balance.boolProps
  * `boolProp <name>` returns the current value.
  * `boolProp <name> <true or false>` sets the value.
* The new boolProps are:
  * showAllDoodads: enable Hidden doodads on the palette UI (NOTE:
    reload the editor to take effect)
  * writeLockOverride: edit files that are write locked anyway
  * prettyJSON: pretty-format the JSON files saved by the game.
