PR2 v164: Blocks of Options

This update contains a significant new game mechanic, a new block, and some bug fixes.

Changes/Additions
- The object deletion button in the LE is a lot cleaner now. The "X" no longer extends past the bounds of the button.
- The LE testing mode stats sliders now update when a stat block is bumped. They also reset to your saved stats when you restart or the next time you test.
- Players can now see their stats in-game. They appear under the course timer. Mousing over the stats display will show a small pop-up.
- BLOCK OPTIONS!!! Certain blocks now have things called block options, which are basically block-specific settings. You can access the block options menu for blocks that have them using this button. These currently include stat blocks and item blocks.
- CUSTOM ITEM BLOCKS!!! As mentioned above, block options are enabled for all item blocks. It's been a long time coming. Thanks for the suggestion, @Odin0030!
- NEW BLOCK!!! There's a new block called a Custom Stats Block. It looks like this. Players that bump this block will have their stats set to what you specify (default is 50-50-50, changeable via block options). You can also set it to reset the stats of the player back to those with which they started the course.

Fixes
- An issue with move blocks has been solved. This is weirdly technical and regular players didn't see it, but it kinda annoyed beta testers for a bit. Thanks to @Eternal for the report!
- The slight speed boost given with the santa hat no longer disappears after a speed burst expires or a stat-modifying block is hit. Thanks for the report, @bi3liu!
- Rotating and restarting when testing your level doesn't break things anymore. This change goes with a few other tweaks to the restart procedure to make it more stable (e.g., resetting stats, clearing the current item, etc). Thanks for reporting this, @bart172!

ICYMI
(In case you missed it)
- Temporary parts and rank tokens now expire as intended. Thanks to @Colind for reporting this!
- Level searching has been greatly improved. Thanks to @Dexterity for outlining this for me!
- A bunch of epic upgrades not previously obtainable have been made obtainable. Read more about it here!
