Change mix loading to not overwrite files (like the game) and add support for indexed/wildcard mixes #111

Closed ZivDero closed 8 months ago

Should address #37

Mix files are now loaded like in the game, that is, files are taken from the earlier loaded mix, not from the later loaded one. This fixes theaters overwriting expand files.
Special values $TSECACHE $RA2ECACHE $ELOCAL $EXPAND $EXPANDMD are now available to load all mixes of chosen format.

NOTE: proper mix loading order for YR. Special values can be commented out if so desired, but would be nice to still indicate where to list expand mixes.

For mods using Ares, $EXPANDMD would be above langmd.mix and language.mix

0=langmd.mix
1=language.mix
2=$EXPANDMD
3=ra2md.mix
4=ra2.mix
5=cachemd.mix
6=cache.mix
7=localmd.mix
8=local.mix
9=$RA2ECACHE
10=$RA2ELOCAL
11=conqmd.mix
12=genermd.mix
13=generic.mix
14=isogenmd.mix
15=isogen.mix
16=conquer.mix
