MoveButtons

Remarks

A bitfield rather than a bool each, because MoveIntent goes on a wire every tick and several ticks at a time ([16](../../../docs/plan/16-networking.md) § Prediction) — eight booleans is eight bytes where eight bits will do.

The high byte is the game's. The engine names the eight verbs every game with a character has; a game needing a ninth writes (MoveButtons)(1 << 8) and gives it a name of its own. Widening this enum later would be a wire break and a scene break at once, so the room is reserved now rather than found later.
