- move the alias syntax and usage docs from dfhack-config/quickfort/aliases.txt to a proper guide written in RST. Add examples and more details.
- move the alias library docs from data/quickfort/aliases-common.txt to the new guide
- reorder aliases in aliases-common to match the order in the docs
- factor out the character used to enter the stockpile config screen so we can use the same aliases for stockpiles and hauling routes (use 's' for stockpiles and '{Enter}' for hauling routes)
- reference the new guide in the quickfort user guide
- do an editorial pass of the quickfort user guide
- change name to "Quickfort Blueprint Guide", but only in the text, not the filename, so we don't change the URL
- add `quickfort-blueprint-guide` as a label, in addition to the existing `quickfort-user-guide`
- changed table-like lists to actual tables
- changed "grid" tables into "simple" tables where possible
- used ':kbd:' markers whenever we refer to a single character
- turned Meta blueprints and Notes blueprints sections into subsections of a new "Other blueprint modes" section, in preparation for a few new modes coming in -r5.
- updated out-of date caveat about bookcases, display furniture, and offering places not being supported
- remove buildings_use_blocks setting from quickfort config file
- add a new Buildingplan Global Settings dialog to house global settings
- move Quickfort Mode (for legacy Python Quickfort) into that dialog
- add four settings to control how generic building materials are matched:
- blocks
- boulders
- logs
- bars
- ajust the buildingplan algorithm to register duplicate tasks for
building material item filters, one for each type. since we track how
many items we've matched for a filter, the first matched item will
"win" and the extras will get detected as invalid and popped off the
queue.
- ensure boulders, logs, and bars are scanned last, and in that order
- more global settings planned for the future! see

I never implemented ignoring spaces in alias definitions, and now that
I've thought more about the consequences, I don't plan to : ) Ignoring
spaces would lead to conusing behavior when players attempt to give
names with spaces to buildings
plus, the original quickfort doesn't seem to have generally treated it
as {Shift}. it was special-cased when it preceded {Enter}, which we
don't need to do.
Widget positions and a few other options (e.g. date formats) can be
specified in dfhack-config/dwarfmonitor.json on a per-instance basis.
Related changes:
* Fixed an issue loading JSON files from Lua
* JSON files in dfhack-config (only dwarfmonitor.json currently) are
no longer copied into the DF directory when building DFHack. This
keeps developers' personal settings intact, but will require
copying over changes made to DFHack's copies manually.
* Fixed incorrect config path in dwarfmonitor help
