* Quick cull invisible LOD nodes
* Reduce dynamic cast
* Fix for Vulkan
Maintainer's comment: Helps only in select tracks and more in already fast frames than in the more problematic slow frames, but an improvement nonetheless.
Add 3 new setting values, increasing the distance at which a lower level of detail is used by factors of 1.6, 2.0 and 3.0 (default is 1.25). This allows players for which getting enough FPS is not an issue to reduce pop-in and improve the looks of tracks.
In local testing with a strong CPU and a weak GPU, the performance impact of increasing the view distances is small and well worth it, but this may vary from system to system. More testing is needed on different systems, but this suggests room to increase minimum, default and maximum values in future releases.
This patch also slightly changes the auto-computation of LoD distance, making the transition around a distance of 250 smoother.
Update to Cantarell 0.303.
Upstream releases only include VF files now.

- Change the colors of the background and borders of the textbox to ensure they always contrast with each other
- Make the color of the textbox cursor the same as the skin's text color - this ensure it always has good contrast
- Offset the display of text slightly in the textbox. This avoids the cursor 'blending in' with the textbox border
- Correctly format the log to display the actual UID
- Fix getReplaydIdByUid being called with an UID of 0, when no replay to compare has been selected
- If there is 2 or 3 karts in the GP, karts in 2nd and (if any) 3rd place display a sad animation
- If there is 4 karts in the GP, the kart in 3rd displays a sad animation
- If there is 5 karts or more in the GP, all karts on the podium display a happy animation
The first kart in the GP always displays a happy animation even if alone.
- Fix a bug that made the last lap SFX played only if music was on.
- Fix the behavior of the music volume adjustment when the last lap SFX is played. Previously, the music volume was only adjusted when the music volume was above a certain threshold, but when it was above that threshold, the adjustment was too strong.
- Set the minimum sound volume to 0.025f instead of effectively 0.1f. This is particularly helpful for headphone users.
- Make the step between each volume setting exponential.
- Add parameters to remember the parameters of the audio spinners.
- Increase the default number of values the audio spinners can take from 10 to 15. Old config files will keep using 10.
- Set the default values to 10 (spinners), which translates to 0.2678 (volume fraction) instead of 0.6 (previous default)
Not displaying a win message when there is only one kart was intended behaviour. A win requires the possibility of a loss. However, displaying the finishing rank with only one kart is ugly.
