- Code has been added to the saveload code to honour the SLF_SAVE_NO and SLF_NETWORK_NO flags. SLF_NETWORK_NO just reads in the the bytestream and then discards it because that setting is not synchronised. For this the function SlSkipBytes() has been reinstated
- SAVEGAME_VERSION has been changed from a constant ENUM to a constant integer. This was done for the configuration-code to be able to tell which version of a CONDVAR type to handle. As said before, because settings can be saved to the savegame, they will become conditional at some point. The configuration code always has to read the 'most recent' version.
- GameOptions are saved through the new structure. It is fully compatible with any old savegame...however it is better. Because of the move to this new format we can instruct the loader to skip certain variables. Autosave for example isn't synchronised anymore (in the network). The same goes for currency and kilometers :D. That is the only functionality change this patch is supposed to have if I have written it correctly.
- NOTE! Patches are still not saved so for Multiplayer to work network_client.c and network_server.c needed slight modifications.
- This unified structure merges the settings in settings.c (concerned with the ini file) and the ones in setting_gui., having to do with the GUI. I tried to give sensible min and maximum values to _patches that were not present in the GUI I hope they work out all right.
- All patch settings miss their callback function which have been temporarily reset to NULL
- Fixed a really small typo in a Doxygen comment in settings.h
- NOTE! When for example _patches are saved to the savegame (as are _gameopt_settings now), you cannot just blindly edit the struct. The same rules apply as to all the other SaveLoad structs. Eg correct CONDVAR's and only adding new entries at the end.
- NOTE! The game is not compilable after this commit.

- This unified structure consists of a SaveLoad type which stores all data relevant about the variable internals such as type, mem/filesize, address, version-control. The SettingDesc type is concerned more about the representation. Things like default value, string-name, minimum/maximum values, gui-behaviour etc.
- The SaveLoad type has received a few flags controlling saving/loading. These are:
SLF_SAVE_NO: the setting is not saved with the savegame, effectively making this setting player-based. Eg. it will NOT be overwritten when joining a network-game
SLF_CONFIG_NO: the setting is not saved to the configuration file so you cannot overwrite it ingame.
SLF_NETWORK_NO: the setting is not synchronised with the local settings when the game is loaded during network-play. Note that when SLF_SAVE_NO is set, SLF_NETWORK_NO is also set (which is logical), at least if the proper macros are used (in [2/4]).

Use the now generalized ReadValue/WriteValue functions as well as using general variable-types (SLE_VAR, instead of custom CE_ ones).
Remove the CE_CLICK type and use a SLE_BOOL type instead with a flag of CE_CLICK.
Remove stepsize from the struct. The stepsize is automatically calculated from the minimum and maximum values (in 20 steps).
