Map: zoomed-view symbols centred, 10x reveal and enemy range; progress screen on the menu background

- Megamap / TAB map zoomed view: heroes' markers and the other symbols
  (integer 200h centre immediates) follow the view's centre.
- Map reveal: the hero's reveal stamp scaled 10x (mods/mapreveal.cpp,
  docs/map-reveal.md); creatures on the zoomed map shown within 10x the
  sight range.
- Load / save progress screen drawn on the rock background across the full
  width, the picture blended over it (mods/loadingscreen.cpp); the classic
  1024x768 frame is gone.
