Performance profiling showed that multiple strcmpi() calls were
occurring each and every time a character was going to the map.
This update:
- honors the WC_COLOR capability
- It allows a window-port to control individual color availability should the window-port wish to do so.
- Makes checking on the individual colors for the active window-port is a straightforward table lookup at the CLR_ offset.
iflags.use_color remains a master on/off switch for use of color, regardless of the capability
compiled into the game (default TRUE).
The has_color() routine, which is now a shared routine in src/windows.c, could likely be made
into a simple macro to eliminate the function call, but this update does not go that far.
This hits a lot of port files due to the window-port interface change, mostly cookie-cutter.

Closes#247
The Windows data file path has to be constructed because
Windows defines VERSION_IN_DLB_FILENAME.
Keep the personal configuration file details as the last
information displayed.
All Is_*_level tests during early startup would test as true until
dungeon_topology was initialized in a new game or restored from
a save file. That could result in some unexpected code paths being
taken.
Add
--showpaths
early option to show where NetHack is expecting to find certain files
without starting up a game. It exits afterwards.

Flag existing occurrences of "You hear" as "Deaf-aware" so
that a grep for that string in the future doesn't need to
trigger further investigation of those.

mingw32-make: *** [Makefile:849: ../binary/NetHack.exe] Error 1
DEFINE_KNOWN_FOLDER is using this particular definition in the mingw
header files:
rather than this one:
So, the known folder values that recent code is using such as
FOLDERID_ProgramData, FOLDERID_LocalAppData, and FOLDERID_Profile are
being declared as external constants.
That is why the error is a link error. We need to include -luuid on
the link command line because those external constants are defined
in uuid.lib.
mingw-w64 sys/winnt/Makefile.gcc required a Windows version bump from
0x0501 to 0x0601 (XP level to Windows 7 level) during compile in
order for the mingw system header files to include some of the
needed support for recent Windows port changes.
make typedef of boolean match mingw header files
link with shell32 and ole32 as Makefile.msc now had to do
kludge some stuff missing from mingw headers in sys/winnt/windmain.c
A few symbol-related modifications:
- fulfill a request from a blind player to allow them to
specify a unique/recognizable character for all pets and/or
the player in the config file for use when using a screen
reader (S_player_override, S_pet_override). Requires sysconf
setting ACCESSIBILITY to be set to have an effect, although
they can still be specified in the config file.
- Config file SYMBOLS entries were not working properly on
the rogue level. Allow ROGUESYMBOLS as well as SYMBOLS to be
specified in the config file independently.
- When values are moved into showsyms[], the overriding SYMBOLS
or ROGUESYMBOLS entry from the config file is used if there is
one; if there is no overriding value for a particular symbol,
the loaded symset value is used; if there is no symset entry
loaded for the symbol then a default symbol is used.
