Separate API from specific NPCs

[hkzorman]

The proposal here is to make the mod advanced_npc completely as an API, with zero specific implementations of NPCs. Below is a comprehensive list of files that will be removed from the project and will be re-used in a separate, brand-new mod:

• textures
  • npc_child_female1.png
  • npc_child_male1.png
  • npc_female[1-11].png
  • npc_male[1-14].png
  • npc_male_priest
• random_data.lua
• data
  • occupations
  • default.lua
  • default_farmer.lua
  • default_miner.lua
  • default_priest.lua
  • dialogues_data.lua
  • gift_items_data.lua
  • names_data.lua

All these files will be re-used in another mod.

Also, minor changes in npc.lua are required as currently it depends on random_data.lua for names. When this is implemented, advanced_npc will be a pure API for implementing NPCs.

I believe this is much important because this textures can be completelly unseless in some situations.

Agreed, textures should be provided by the mods using advanced_npc, not the API itself. Thanks. This is my next task to work on.
