Defs: Add "artfile" token, which loads an ART file. You can use the "tile" sub-token to overwrite the starting tilenum of the file from def.

artfile { file "whatever.art" } // loads whatever.art just as if it had been named TILES020.ART
artfile { file "whatever.art" tile 2000 } // loads whatever.art starting at index 2000 instead of the tilestart value contained within it

This is useful because ART files will load faster than images loaded through tilefromtexture (which must undergo a color matching process), and because tiles making use of palette indices which have duplicate colors in the stock Duke 3D palette but not in other palettes (such as the 3D Realms screen) are negatively affected by the aforementioned process.

Add support for ART files containing exactly one tile as an input format for hightile textures and model skins. They are rendered in the global game palette and function as conventional hightile.

Defs: Allow loading ART files as input to tilefromtexture. Note that they must contain exactly one tile; any more and the entire ART file will be rejected.
