Create a system where the user can override doodad A.I. on a level.

Example: drag a Thief in and turn on a "follow the player" A.I. to override its default of wandering aimlessly.

Impl ideas:

Actor config system: let a doodad define options it uses and each creature doodad can opt-in what A.I. patterns it uses (e.g. str value with enum of options)
Link system: more "technical doodads", link a Thief with a "Follow A.I." and the doodad looks for specially linked doodads to know which AI function to run

Can the doodad scripts share A.I. programs? make them generic?
