[SUG][EDITOR] Show gridlines when snap-to-grid is active

[WillLem]

"View gridlines" for if you're not using clear physics mode in editor, toggle 1x1 grid or 2x2, 4x4, etc.

Yes, this is an idea I've also had and I'm surprised it's not already a feature. I'll definitely look at implementing this one as it will make snap-to-grid that much more usable.

Done. Any preferences on grid colour?



Implemented in Commit 980915e

The color should be high contrast, like a bright gray or a invert of the back ground.

I originally drew it in bright grey and it looked far too high-contrast to me so I changed it to dark blue. I guess it's likely that everyone will have a different preference, and might even want to change it depending on the tileset they're working with, so I'll probably add a basic colour selector in settings.

[WillLem]

Added a basic colour selection list which updates the grid on-the-fly so it can be previewed:



The list provides 10 basic options to make it easier for users to make a choice and spend less time tweaking the settings, but it's actually possible to use any html web colour by using its name (there's a full list here) and adding it to the settings.ini (e.g. "GridColor CornflourBlue"), should users wish to do so.

Implemented in commit 59a811b.

EDIT: Users can also choose to set the colour to "(Invisible)" if they don't wish to use a visible grid (commit d5a58d6).
