New ASSET_LOADER_TYPE_CUTSCENE (assetcutsceneloader.c) reads a versioned
binary .cts format decoded into a heap-allocated cutsceneitem_t array + a
string/data pool, both sized to the file's actual content rather than a
fixed capacity, so the shared assetloaderoutput_t union doesn't bloat for
every asset slot regardless of type. Authoring pipeline mirrors the chunk
asset pattern: assetsraw/cutscenes/*.jsonc (JSON plus // and /* */
comments) -> tools/asset/cutscene -> assets/cutscenes/*.cts.
cutsceneSystemSetOnComplete() lets the caller arm a native callback that
fires when a cutscene finishes normally, so a file (which can't store a
function pointer) can end plainly and still hand off to native code -
cutsceneRestart() preserves it across a retry loop rather than clearing it,
since a restart is the same logical run trying again.
The initial and main-menu start-game cutscenes are now loaded from files
instead of compiled in via the CUTSCENE(...) macro.
Fixed a real bug found while converting these: the sync loader read the
file's total size from assetfile_t.size to locate the trailing pool
region, but assetFileDispose() (called at the end of the async phase)
zeroes that whole struct first, so the size was always 0 and the pool
offset computation underflowed into an out-of-bounds read - intermittent
depending on heap layout. Fixed by saving the size before disposal; also
fixed the read-completeness assert being checked after that same zeroing
(a no-op 0 == 0 check).

- Allow 2 chunks to be mid-load concurrently instead of 1 (MAP_CHUNK_LOAD_CONCURRENCY).
- Fix entitySetChunk silently losing track of an entity when its target chunk's
entity slots are full - it now stays detached (and retries later) instead of
claiming a chunk that never actually registered it.
- DCF format bumped to v5: chunks can now declare entity spawns (global/NPC via
the existing entityglobal registry, or one-shot item pickups) and map area
triggers, resolved via a new callback-ID registry (mapareagloballist.h)
mirroring the entity one. rpg.c's hardcoded TEST entity/item/area spawns are
gone - chunk_0_0_0.json now carries that data instead. The player is still
bootstrapped in code since it isn't map-authored content.
