Allow to change the default levelup health increase formula to introduce homebrew variations- reroll 1s, roll but if less than half then take half, Tough feat, others.

Is !550 enough to warrant closing this? It adds a hook that would allow modules to implement homebrew rules for this kind of thing which the core system otherwise might not.

The tough feat is part of #406 I believe, being done in !547

Tough feat will be properly implemented in the next version when max hit points become a derived value. For other roll formulas, I think the best solution would be to add a hook to Actor5e#rollHitPoints to allow modules or world scripts to customize the roll formula in whatever fashion they wish, rather than add a couple of hardcoded implementations.
