v2.0-rc1

This is Rugburn v2.0-rc1. Rugburn no longer compiles with OpenWatcom 2; now it uses MinGW. Rugburn can now be compiled with MSVC as well. There is no longer a need to either patch ijl15.dll or rename it to ijl15_real.dll, as Rugburn now includes an embedded copy of ijl15.dll.

As part of this work. the length disassembler was replaced with a permissively-licensed length disassembler, so that we can link with the unfree redistributable ijl15 library. This means that Rugburn is now entirely permissively licensed.

This version of Rugburn may work on older versions of Windows because it no longer uses Slipstream, but more testing is needed. We will want to ensure that this works as far back as possible before v2.0 is cut.

Wine _stricmp bug mitigation - #9

There is an issue with Wine's _stricmp implementation that causes bugs with PangYa, including crashing and player models not displaying in the lobby. This is now mitigated by Rugburn. When using the Wine builtin C runtime libraries, the mitigation should automatically be enabled.

Dynamic patches - #12

@Acrisio-Filho added the ability to specify custom patches in rugburn.json. This dramatically simplifies making custom memory patches; you no longer need to recompile Rugburn to do so.

Here is an example of how it might be used:

{
    ...
    "PatchAddress": {
        "0x00d19ffc": "lobby_gbin\\x00"
    }
}

You can specify hexadecimal addresses as keys. The string format supports a form of hex escapes, which allows for raw data including NULL bytes to be specified.
