Hey Grifters, 

Today's update should reduce hitching that can happen during the card games. We were doing a lot of redundant state updates in the cards themselves, and this was starting to become a problem. Hopefully, this didn't break anything, and the cards are still up-to-date and accurate as you play and the state of the game changes. But it's a terrifying change, so make sure that you f8 any weirdness that you see!

PERFORMANCE

• Remove potentially superfluous Refresh cards.
• Avoid full hand refresh when processing DELTA_ACTION_COUNT, CONDITION_ADDED, CONDITION_REMOVED.  It's only necessary for debug commands which modify state outside the normal course of the card sim.
• fightscreen can preload defs, which can preload defs
• void_chain preloads the anims for the monster it wants to spawn
• clean up cardwidget:SetOutline to do less redundant work
• don't double-layout tooltip widgets
• make cardwidget:refreshcard cheaper by not recalculating everything every time
• don't refresh new card widgets twice when adding to hand
• Keep fightarrow.tex, negotiationarrow.tex loaded

GAMEPLAY

• your comrades hate you and leave you if you abandon them in side_smith_seemli_triangular_firing_squad

UI

• mettle upgrades are presented in a sorted order
• Only emote "injured" when being removed from an encounter at the end of combat if you are an active speaker (prevents talking animals in rare cases)
• make question go away after it is asked in dangerous_goods_seller.lua

I don't play a lot of digital card games, so I'll just shrug and nod.
