  Description     : Doom source port with a focus on demo recording and speedrunning

This is a fork of prboom+ with extra tooling for demo recording and
playback, with a focus on speedrunning.

As announced earlier [1], I'd like to replace the prboom-plus Doom
engine in Debian with its more actively developed fork dsda-doom.
While developement of the former has mostly stagnated, the latter
pioneered with new features like the introduction of the MBF21 modding
standard and DSDehacked (aka unlimited everything). Apart from that,
it also keeps demo compatibility as its highest goal, has added
support for Heretic and Hexen and has the vibrant DSDA speedrunning
community behind it.
