Overhaul sound lists to introduce aliases, rethink editing behavior (#389)

* Resolve https://github.com/AttorneyOnline/AO2-Client/issues/275 by adding a "Nothing" option to play no SFX even when playing a preanimation that behaves similar to the Default option

* Overhaul sound list:
* Allow aliases. .ini file syntax is "filename = alias".
* Do not allow editing the .ini files from the client anymore.
* The sound list dropdown is still editable, but all it does is play your custom sfx without adding it to any files.
* Overhaul get_char_sfx

* Fix aliases not working properly with a rather tricky solution

* save character soundlist in base and drop the character_ from the filename
