Engine fixes

Items that can’t be stashed are now dropped on the ground upon opening the stash.
Prevent re-binding the primary Main1 binding, which could break many interactions.

Fix bug where high item find chance prevented the player from finding currency.

Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:
pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F
Flare (Free Libre Action Roleplaying Engine) is a simple game engine built to
handle a very specific kind of game: single-player 2D action RPGs. Flare is not
a reimplementation of an existing game or engine. It is a tribute to and
exploration of the action RPG genre.
This package contains only the engine part of Flare.
