Changes:

- Adds timer ticking during time-limited missions
- Adds map zooming
- Adds the option of sorting missions by difficulty
- Allows the use of joypads/joysticks with just 1 button
- Fixes the following bugs:
- Bad joypad handling (detection was inhibited by a '2' in place of a '1'; sometimes up/down movement could stick)
- [PAGE UP/DOWN] handling (repeat delay handling was missing)
- A bad optimization of ray-tracing routine (which had no practical effects thanks to the way maps and themes were made)
- Improves and extends the user's manual
- Links the AmigaOS 4 version to libSDL 1.2.13
- Applies some other minor changes
