We have no hope of extending lua_State to add more data to it, because
that object may be created by Lua itself, for instance within a coroutine,
and it has no knowledge of our version of the object.
We already have the convenient degrees() and radians() functions to convert
between angle formats. This commit involves a lot of refactoring here and
there and I may have missed some places where conversions were needed. But
hopefully there aren’t may such places.
This lets us use the code for non-float variable types. I also got
rid of the mat4-to-quat code so that users are forced to use the
mat3-to-quat code and possibly discover places where their code is
suboptimal.
Using “Array” instead of “array” is now fully deprecated, and I replaced
the Log::Debug() etc. functions with msg::debug() etc. because log:: was
unavailable due to being a maths function.
Added up-to-date copyright notice and BOM to modified files, just in case.
The containers no longer force the user to use the ptrdiff_t type for
size information. For convenience, size() now always returns an int,
and the size_s() method offers a way to handle arrays with more than
2 billion elements. Internally, we still use ptrdiff_t, though.
Since so much code had to be changed, I took the opportunity to get
rid of capitalised accessors for classes that are lowercase.
Box objects (AABB) now have the long awaited extent() and center()
methods. Corners are now called “aa” and “bb” for convenience. The
WorldEntity class uses a box3 for its AABB instead of two vec3s.
This allows us to simplify a lot of verbose code.
