Adds support for adding custom subtitles to Jak 2 audio. Comes with a
new editor for the new system and format. Compared to the Jak 1 system,
this is much simpler to make an editor for.
Comes with a few subtitles already made as an example.
Cutscenes are not officially supported but you can technically subtitle
those with editor, so please don't right now.
This new system supports multiple subtitles playing at once (even from a
single source!) and will smartly push the subtitles up if there's a
message already playing:

Unlike in Jak 1, it will not hide the bottom HUD when subtitles are
active:

Sadly this leaves us with not much space for the subtitle region (and
the subtitles are shrunk when the minimap is enabled) but when you have
guards and citizens talking all the time, hiding the HUD every time
anyone spoke would get really frustrating.
The subtitle speaker is also color-coded now, because I thought that
would be fun to do.
TODO:
- [x] proper cutscene support.
- [x] merge mode for cutscenes so we don't have to rewrite the script?

Adds the `pckernel` system to Jak 2, allowing you to do the PC-specific
things that Jak 1 lets you do like change game resolution, etc.
In other to reduce the amount of code duplication for something that
we're gonna be changing a lot over time, I split it into a few more code
files. In this new system, `pckernel-h.gc`, `pckernel-common.gc`
(previously `pckernel.gc`) and `pc-debug-common.gc` are the files that
should be shared across all games (I hacked the Jak 2 project to pull
these files from the Jak 1 folder), while `pckernel-impl.gc`,
`pckernel.gc` and `pc-debug-methods.gc` are their respective
game-specific counterparts that should be loaded after. I'm not fully
happy with this, I think it's slightly messy, but it cleanly separates
code that should be game-specific and not accidentally copied around and
code that should be the same for all games anyway.
Ports some of the custom PC port debugging code from Jak 1, such as the
entity debugger, Anim Tester X and part tester, to Jak 2 and gives the
PC menu code the same treatment Jak 1 received recently in #2216.
Some adjustments have been made to make things work in Jak 2 and some
stuff is still incomplete.
The majority of the default PC menu code has been left commented out in
preparation for @ManDude's plan to port the rest of the Jak 1 `pckernel`
features to Jak 2.
Also adds the code for `palace-scenes` to gsrc as that seems to have
been missed.
Moves PC-specific entity and debug menu things to `entity-debug.gc` and
`default-menu-pc.gc` respectively and makes `(declare-file (debug))`
work as it should (no need to wrap the entire file in `(when
*debug-segment*` now!).
Also changes the DGO descriptor format so that it's less verbose. It
might break custom levels, but the format change is very simple so it
should not be difficult for anyone to update to the new format. Sadly,
you lose the completely useless ability to use DGO object names that
don't match the source file name. The horror!
I've also gone ahead and expanded the force envmap option to also force
the ripple effect to be active. I did not notice any performance or
visual drawbacks from this. Gets rid of some distracting LOD and some
water pools appearing super flat (and pitch back for dark eco).
Fixes#1424
Notable things:
- This assert is hit when trying to save the pc-settings file, NYI
e630b50690/game/kernel/common/Symbol4.h (L14)
so right now settings aren't persisted. But RPC defaults to on
- The existing functions can probably be made generic based off the game
version, but I didn't spend time refactoring them yet as they aren't
really ready to be used in jak 2 yet (we have no screenshots for the
levels for example)
