…only functions, types, and enums. Currently this addition involves some parsing errors with "mergeDump", where for example, "Material", which exists in both the game and Hammer editor, will not show that, instead only showing the Hammer implementation which is empty.

The current implementation of the AngelScript (AS) wiki dump parser parses the server and client dump files. However, since there is currently no real difference between the two, all functions, enums, and types are marked as "Server & Client". The only AS implementation difference in Strata Source is with Hammer, which includes various class types and enums that are NOT in the game. Ex.
BoundBox,RenderModeRight now, as of 1/4/26, the parser has an issue if a type or enum exists in BOTH the game and Hammer. An example is
Material, whereMaterialexists to a far greater extent than Hammer, with several functions in the class definition. However, for Hammer, it's an empty shell. The "mergeDump" function currently doesn't handle a type already being defined and instead overwrites what's already there with the next dump to be merged. It wasn't an issue with the client & server ones since they were currently the same, but not the Hammer one.The goal of this PR is to rewrite/update the AS wiki parser to support the Hammer dump file. This PR might evolve into rewriting the entire dump parsing scene, so that all scripting languages can be parsed from one file and formatted into the same format in the wiki itself.
