Title: [DONE] [Suggestion] Multiple game endings

Requested by Kato.

The victory and defeat cutscenes have been unhardcoded.
You can now mark a cutscene with winGame or loseGame attribute:

Code: [Select]

cutscenes:
  - type: myCustomVictoryCutscene
    winGame: true

or

Code: [Select]

cutscenes:
  - type: myCustomDefeatCutscene
    loseGame: true

and it will trigger the desired effect.

It works on:
- mission win/lose/abort cutscenes
- special loss-only cutscenes except "loseDefeat" (see next post)
- research cutscenes (starting from OXCE 6.7)

It doesn't work on other cutscenes:
 - intro
 - briefing cutscenes
 - research cutscenes (until OXCE 6.7)

The special loss-only cutscene names have been unhardcoded, with vanilla name as default value for all of them.

Syntax:

Code: [Select]

gameOver:
  loseMoney: loseGame       # cutscene ID that should be played when the player loses due to poor economy management
  loseRating: loseGame      # cutscene ID that should be played when the player loses due to poor rating
  loseDefeat: loseGame      # cutscene ID that should be played when the player loses the last base

PS: "loseDefeat" will always cause a game over (defeat)... the rest can be configured to trigger defeat or not (see post above).

Research cutscenes will also be supported starting with OXCE v6.7
