da8a1daeef Virtual selectors
Where ordinary selectors specify a value stored in some object,
virtual selectors specify a function to call to compute a value
associated with some object.

Use them to replace the special case xdump ver by new table
EF_VERSION.

Move configkeys[] to lib/common because nsc_init() needs it to
initialize empfile[EF_VERSION].cadef.

since 4.3.4, and budget priorities are gone since 4.3.6.

Fix markup.

4ea4a01fd5 (info, html): Implement.
(all): Depend on info.

Flatten info directory.  This undoes the move to one subdirectory per
chapter, which was done during Empire 2.  The structure doesn't buy us
much, as the info name space is flat, and it complicates makefiles.

Overhaul info.pl:
- It now wants to run in the root of the build tree.
- Information on source files and subjects is now stored in makefiles,
  thus info.pl no longer picks up random junk from the file system.
- Clean up Perl anachronisms, in particular use subroutine arguments and
  results rather than global variables where convenient.
- Change format of diagnostics to the common format used by GNU tools,
  so that Emacs and the like can parse it.
- Catch missing .SA.
- When creating a new subject file, cowardly refuse to overwrite an
  existing file.
- Subject files contain topics sorted by chapter, then by name.  The
  order of chapters used to depend on how Perl sorts hash keys.  Fix
  it.
