Eternity Alfheim syntax

For versions of Eternity from Alfheim up, EDF weaponinfo support the following syntax. Make sure to add:

setdialect("ALFHEIM")

before using this syntax:

weaponinfo <unique name> : <inherited weaponinfo>, <dehackednum>
{
  <other attributes>
}

Header properties

• <inherited weaponinfo> must be a value, even if the weaponinfo doesn't inherit from anything else. In that case, it must be Weapon, which is a placeholder value belonging to no real weaponinfo.
• <dehackednum> -1 if not used. If -1, it can be omitted, leaving just this:

weaponinfo <unique name> : <inherited weaponinfo> {<attributes>}

• If header properties are used, the pre-Alfheim syntax inherits and dehackednum attributes are not used.
