MacDugRPG 949a0dba9b Adds mergedDemo_2022_0904A; retooling game for drawing from source module file
Begins retooling the mergedDemo to generate locations and options (and eventually dialog and all) from a module data source. Working with JSON now just to get started, will switch this to DB once it's up and working. Currently generates 'node' arrays and intro text; stopped working on adding dynamic options from these nodes and connecting them.

Intro notes:
This menu was stripped down from the bigger game and settings testing
I was doing -- so there's a decent chance yet of something broken --
please let me know if you encounter anything that's not linking up as
desired. Currently there are temp destinations loaded for each of the
menu options -- these are saved as scenes in the screens folder.
Currently almost all the buttons are instances of the same source
button object -- linked to their destination using the 'Next Scene Path'
available in the inspector.

Project file structure:
Surface Layer:
Default Godot files remain at this level
_toArchive:
Directory to serve as reference-only; precursor to trash
assets:
Images, fonts, themes and styles (TRES text resource data files). Note that all fonts and styles are defined in
the following themes: ui_controlNode_light_theme.tres and ui_controlNode_dark_theme.tres. Any style changes
should be made in those theme files to assure propagation throughout.
gamePlay:
Scenes and scripts specific to the gameplay section
globalScripts:
For project-wide use, or scripts that are not either:
A. attached to a template scene, intended to go with all instances of that, or
B. unique, scene-specific scripts.
screens:
Planned to include both .tscn scene files and their associated scripts.
userInterface: (note misnomer for text-based game)
Re-useable UI elements and their scripts, such as change-scene, input-response
