Version 1.9.0 RC1

What's Changed

• Bump actions/checkout from 3 to 4 by @dependabot in #552
• Preprocessor: Rewrite by @BrettMayson in #546

Full Changelog: v1.8.0...v1.9.0-rc1

Version 1.8.0

Internal Rewrite

The config parser has been completely rewritten, along with a whole new error reporting system.

This change allows for better detection and recovery of errors, no longer stopping on the first issue encountered.

The way the config parser interacts with the preprocessor has also be overhauled, this change opens up much easier ability to add SQF, style checking, static analysis, and more into future HEMTT versions.

The changes to the error reporting system will also allow easier community contributions for additional errors and warnings, and allows for a Language Server, a VSCode extension is already on the way, and extensions for other IDEs would be possible as well.

Simple Compile-Time Math

Simple math can be evaluated at runtime. + - * / ^ % () are supported.

value = 1 + 2 * 2
// after hemtt
value = 5;

Use quotes to keep the value as is and have Arma evaluate it at runtime.
