Summary: Mouse Buttons Like Keys

Initial Comment:
This patch makes mouse buttons transparent to the system. They act just like keyboard keys, which gives the key binding system much more flexibility as to how to use the mouse buttons.  This patch also adds next weapon and previous weapon features as keyboard, or mouse wheel selectable options.  This patch was applied to the source tree that was available to my Debian Lenny distribution.  That version of the source tree is prboom-2.4.7+dfsg.  I realize that the current source tree
is at version 2.5, but I hope the changes will integrate well.

Message:
I downloaded the latest prboom-2.5.0 tarball and applied the changes to
that version.  Now the patches are fully up-to-date with the current stable
source tree.  This patch makes doom play like the more modern games like
quake3, or unreal tournament.  Now you can fully configure your mouse
buttons or keys to define the user interface the way you like it.

Message:
I added a little more cleanup to eliminate more of the unnecessary code
that hard coded mouse buttons to selected functions.  Now any function can
be allocated to the mouse buttons just like the keyboard keys.
