Under gcc-9 (e.g. used by Ubuntu 20.04), compilation fails with:
```

Judging from the date of P2162, calling std::visit with std::variant
derivatives is only specified for C++20 and onwards. But Descent3
only asks for C++17.
Since ``class user_var`` does not have any members that need would
need to be accessed via std::visit, we can "add a hint" and
explicitly specify the base type.

Turn ``User_var`` into an array of std::variant, the latter of which can hold
either float or int. Savegames do not carry the necessary type information
which variant (float/int) is in use; instead, this is statically decided by
the level DLL logic on a per-index basis. This approach is retained for now.
A lot of ``Var_something = 0`` is used despite Var_something being
logically used as float, so we need to override op= to keep the
variant type as-is.
Due to ``#include "DallasFuncs.cpp"``, DF is recompiled 52 times.
Rework it to build just once. The compile time goes down for me
from 1m45.3s to 1m38.8s on my 1135G7 CPU running make -j8.
