zicodxx reported a compiler error when using inheriting constructors
when using an unspecified environment. Investigation shows that gcc-6.x
has a regression that causes spurious -Wuseless-cast warnings where the
compiler automatically synthesizes a cast, then warns the user that the
synthesized cast is useless.
Compensate for this by extending the -Wuseless-cast testcase to provoke
this bug, if present. Affected users will lose -Wuseless-cast, but
their build will succeed.

This allows the player to press a movement key to respawn after death, and the same keypress will cause the ship to move. Now this works with the option 'when dead, respawn by pressing any key' as well as 'when dead, respawn by pressing the Fire key'.
This is so game_flush_inputs() isn't called - part of change allowing player to respawn and begin moving with the same keypress. With this commit, you can use this feature with the 'when dead, respawn by pressing the Fire key' option - i.e. hold down movement key, then press fire key to respawn.
Later commits will enable the player to press a movement key to respawn on death, then move with the same keypress. This commit makes sure the player stops moving when the key is released.
Movement handling has an ugly hack that tries to grab powerups near the
console player, but it reuses general collision handling and fails to
check whether the player is alive.
Add a liveness check. Place the check so that it happens once, before
the objects are scanned, rather than being needlessly repeated for every
object.
Refactor the collision code to let the movement hack skip the parts it
does not need.

PCH mode causes the Valgrind-wrapper header to be included in places
it is not meant to be used, which leads to spurious compiler errors.
PCH mode causes the Valgrind-wrapper __real_* stub functions to see
the physfsx.h PHYSFS macros, which also causes errors.
Fortunately, both cases can be easily fixed.
Add preprocessor guards to the Valgrind-wrapper header to cause it to
compile out when the PCH phase runs. It has no include guard, so it
will be rescanned with the proper macros when the two consuming files
are built normally.
Modify the Valgrind-wrapper __real_* stub functions to use
the standard macro avoidance trick so that they do not call the
physfsx.h PHYSFS macros.
Kreator proposed restoring the Descent 2 cheat that grants homing
capability to all weapons. This commit implements that proposition,
with some changes to the implementation details.

Yarn reported that Descent 2: Counterstrike level 9 can place the
guidebot in a situation where
(Escort_goal_index == object_guidebot_cannot_reach &&
Escort_special_goal != ESCORT_GOAL_UNSPECIFIED)
If this happens and the player grabs a powerup, then the game crashes
trying to check if the grabbed powerup was of the type that the guidebot
sought. Since the guidebot was not seeking any object, the answer is
that this is not the sought object.
The design ought not set Escort_goal_index to an invalid object index,
but it does. Fixing that is too invasive for now. Add a special case
to prevent this crash.

Typing "BALDGUY" after enabling cheats will activate the 'baldguy' easter egg for D1X-Rebirth, which will show next time a briefing is shown featuring Dravis (Mac D1 data only). As with the original, it just plays the 'Cheater!' sound with no HUD message.
Pressing ALT-B when in the briefings using Mac Descent 1 data in D1X-Rebirth works again - showing Dravis wearing a silly hat. Before it would exit load_briefing_screen prematurely.
Function `object_create_explosion_sub` is supposed to be given a weapon
and an object on which to explode it. However, the original game abused
`object_create_explosion_sub` by also calling it from
`object_create_badass_explosion`, which can be called from
`explode_badass_object`, which can be called from
`explode_badass_player`. Chained together, this lets
`object_create_explosion_sub` check the weapon ID of a dying player,
which is not a valid operation. This causes a diagnostic from
`get_weapon_id`. Add an explicit test that the object is a weapon so
that non-weapons do not cause a diagnostic.
