Simplify the code by removing the if (colored) conditionals from the
code path. CPU cost is insignificant compared to tracing the rays.
As before, only write the lit file if colored lights are detected or
the use explicity requests it.

Removes the MAX_MAP_ENTITIES and MAX_MAP_ENTSTRING limitations by
counting how much space we will need before parsing/writing.
Now that I look at it, I'm not sure why we should even be re-writing
the entity string in the new bsp file, but I'll leave that behaviour
alone... for now.

Precalculate the distance at which lights will fade to zero brightness.
For lights with inverse falloff, use the gate value to determine the
cut-off distance. Use this value to cull samples and avoid the ray
tracing overhead.
Hopefully not too controversially, I am going to default this to "on" with
a gate value of 0.001. Unless you have > 1000 lights contributing
fractional light values across your map, this is not going to make any
visible difference.

We were calculating these values for every light and for every surface,
which seems a little excessive... Also made the variable names a bit more
sensible - we had stored a direction vector, not the actual mangle values.

Check whether any of the entities have colored fields set and if so,
enable colored light output. Can still be overridden from the command line
if needed.
