.so files can be stripped such that they contain no "regular" symbol
table but do still contain the "dynamic" symbol table, this is pretty
typical for .so files. QB64-PE is supposed to check both tables when
linking against a .so file, but a bug in ab0c2b18 meant that the second
run of nm with the -D flag to check the dynamic symbol table no longer
happens. The fix is to introduce a new output file for the dynamic run
so that they are handled separately in terms of caching the result.
A new test .so file that only contains a dynamic symbol table was added
to avoid this in the future.

Current the -o flag will strip any "extension" on the provided filename,
which is fairly problimatic on Linux and Mac OS since those executes do
not have other extensions and names like "foobar.v1" will get the ".v1"
stripped off. This can happen on Windows as well if you leave off the
.exe (QB64-PE will add it for you, but also strip off the existing
extension).
QB64-PE stripping off the ".exe" when provided that on Linux and Mac OS
might actually be useful behavior people are relying on (so that they
don't need to provide different names when compiling on Linux/Mac OS) so
we are preserving that and still removing the extension if it is exactly
"EXE", otherwise we now leave it in place.

The new optional arguments for functions broke _RGB32() because it uses
some custom flags ('overloaded' and 'minargs' on the id Type) to control
its parameter passing. You are allowed passing any number from 1 to 4 args
to `func__rgb32` and there are 4 overloaded C++ functions that will get
picked from. This is different from how this typically would work, with
all 4 parameters always passed and an extra argument to specify the
parameters that were passed.
Rather than change `func__rgb32` I simply adjusted the optional argument
logic to account for the flags used by `_RGB32()` - if the `overloaded`
flag is set, then we don't need to add extra `NULL` parameters for any
parameter that wasn't specified in the argument list. Instead we simply
don't emit anything for those.
Currently functions only have very limited optional argument support,
this expands it so that we can have more complex sets of optional
arguments for functions, such as multiple arguments where not all need
to be provided. This will be used in the future for some upcoming
functionality.
Note that this does not support any generic optional argument format,
the commas always have to be provided unless an optional argument is at
the end of the parameter list. Thus, if you have a format with two
optional arguments and you want to omit the second, then you need to call
it as 'foo(2, , 3)`, rather than `foo(2, 3)`. This is important for
avoiding ambiguous situations, and is how many SUBs currently function.
The two functions that violate that requirement are INSTR() and
_INSTRREV(), which use the format `[?],?,?` and allow omitting the comma
for the first argument. This format is simply handled as a special case.

If a timer expires while stopped, it should trigger when TIMER ON is
run. Instead, on QB64 it triggers randomly after the TIMER ON happens.
The basic issue is that `qbevent` needs to be set to trigger the timer,
but TIMER ON doesn't do that. The regular timer logic that does that
already set it when the timer expired while sleeping, so it won't set it
again. The simplest solution is to just alway set qbevent = 1 when TIMER
ON is done. It's slightly less efficent but doesn't hurt to set it even
when there are no timers that expired.
Fixes: #293
The command Sleep is supposed to allow timers to trigger while the
program is sleeping on the delay. This is achieved in QB64 by having
commands that do delays manually call evnt() to trigger events if they
come up (of which timers are one).
Sleep has a custom implementation for console programs on Windows which
doesn't do this, so I redid the logic so that it calls evnt() at regular
intervals while waiting for input. Additionally, due to now calling
evnt() we also need to check if we should exit sleep early due to an
evnt() firing.
Fixes: #294
Timer's were not firing at the right time if they were started shortly
after the program started, instead they would fire at twice the interval
time (and then work correctly after that).
The issue was a mistaken assumption about `time_now`, with the idea that
if `last_time == 0` then `time_now` will be large enough such that the
interval check will pass. This is wrong because in most cases `time_now`
starts at zero at program start, so when `last_time == 0` it will take
one full interval of the timer before `time_now` is large enough for the
interval check to pass (at which point the timer is initialized and runs
normally).
This simply refactors the timer logic so that `last_time == 0` is
checked first, rather than if the interval has expired. This doesn't
change how the normal logic works, but ensures that the value of
`time_now` does not matter for initializing a timer.

- unused (commented) code
- no longer needed HTML tag handling (eliminated from Wiki pages)
- #toc/#top link filters removed (those links are supported now)
- designate the help page header as target for #toc/#top links (Return to Top, Return to Table of Contents in the Wiki)
- include bottom {{PageNavigation}} links
- implement <h4> headings (==== in the Wiki), used as letter anchors in the alphabetic index
- UTF-8 handling changed to signal missing/unknown chars
- old entity handling (see 1st commit) removed and replaced by a similar method as UTF-8 handling incl. signalling missing/unknown entities
- added dynamic warnings at the top of pages which are using missing/unknown entities or UTF-8
- wikipedia pages can be linked simply as Winkipedia:page instead of the full URL
- advantage: the new syntax can be used in internal links as well and will automatically expanded into external links when clicked
