* Update bubble gum AI to new system
In addition of making some functionality depends on AI levels, there are a few overall improvements for the better AIs :
1)Remove the "drop the gum in the last lap" logic. Bad strategy since ever the shield has been added to the gum
2)The protection against flyable is not used if the user holds a swatter and the flyable is a plunger
3)Holding a swatter no longer blocks the AI from using the shield against a flyable nor from using the gum behind
4)The shield is used to remove bad attachments (bomb, parachute, anvil)
5)Reduce the distance with the kart behind when dropping the gum to reduce misses
* Update swatter AI to new system
The swatter could benefit from several kind of usage improvement. This patch introduce only one, but probably the more important : the better AIs now use it to remove bad attachments

Also changes bowling ball for the new system.
* Activate shield before hitting box or bad item
Meant for higher AIs.
* Increase lookup distance
Some distance will be needed for the switch

* Update handleNitroAndZipper to the new system
Also fix a naming error, remove the 95% speed limitation on nitro usage
* Adds a small engine boost to nitro
Currently, nitro is very counter-intuitive as it only affects max_speed. This change corrects it. The effect remains small to not upset balance. It is mostly felt when below max_speed, so the can of nitro potential power doesn't change much.
* Improve AI nitro handling
Summary :
1)Makes the AI use nitro by bursts, greatly improving its efficiency
2)Makes the AI use nitro when close to max speed (to unlock the max speed increase)
3)Remove the overtaking logic as the AI will now use its nitro anyway
4)The AI tries to keep a reserve of nitro for use towards the end of the race.
* Allows estimated finish time to be checked at any lap, fix a crash
* Makes the AI use its nitro reserves
* Better tuning for nitro reserve usage to reduce the probability of unused nitro

Now we can get determine the background color by depth, so
the alpha tricks in diffuse color fbo is not necessary
And using rgba8 to pack normal doesn't seem to cause visual glitches.

Particles cause a crash on some radeon devices, so people can at least disable it to make the game working.
Also tfb causes quite big slowdown on slow devices even if there is no particles displayed, so it can give few more fps.
(fixes karts getting stuck at borders), use a longer less bevelled collision
shape better kart stability), and reduce angular factor to make it less
likely that karts can drive on walls.
In this case only diffuseMatColor really matters, other values are constant.
It improves performance on GLES renderer and it's also noticeably faster for GL on desktop.
For example:
- fps increased for me from 60 to 69 on Hacienda with intel HD 4000
- from 43 to 49 on lighthouse
There is much less difference on nvidia graphics card, but still it gives small performance improvement.
