Implement a quest system and job board

Browse Source 
- The job board is loosely based on Exile III's job board; the dialog is converted from the one contained as a relic of E3 in BoE
- Quest system is loosely based on a mix of Exile III jobs and Blades of Avernum quests
- Talking to a monster (even a hostile one) can now trigger an arbitrary special node

Dialog engine:
- LED's now support wrapped labels

Add 100 to indicate a priest spell. Item-only spells such as Wrack or Strengthen Target can also be tested for; just enter the same spell ID you would enter for the item ability.
