  Lua: Add a few more useful functions to the WML module and make WML table conversion a little more robust

- New functions: wml.find_child, wml.attribute_count, wml.equal, wml.valid
- When converting a Lua table to WML, the engine will no longer accept invalid attributes
- Use of wml.tovconfig in plugin or map generation scripts is deprecated (it already doesn't quite work properly in those contexts but still could've been used as a way to test a table's validity as WML)

  -----------
  Add stringx module that exposes Wesnoth's split/join functions to Lua

The built-in string module is set as the metatable index for the stringx module, and the stringx module is set as the metatable index for strings, meaning all string and stringx methods are available through (''):method_name.

This also enables direct indexing of strings to get individual characters (ie ('str')[1] and the like), which package.lua already assumed even though it didn't work. Negative indices are supported to, and index from the end of the srring.

New functions:
- stringx.split
- stringx.parenthetical_split
- stringx.map_split
- stringx.escaped_split
- stringx.quoted_split
- stringx.anim_split
- stringx.join
- stringx.join_map

  Declare wesnoth.interface.remove_overlay directly instead of declaring it local and then assigning it
