Dear members of the board and office drones

This patch adds another demanded feature, namely the option to define a custom name for your main character. The rest address various deficiencies in functionality and user interface kindly pointed out by beta testers & demo players.

Here the list of all changes:

UI improvements
- Reduce lag when typing a save name
- Log archive: reduce lag when full and add a search field
- Switching between executives in the storage screen no longer resets the selected company storage
- add stretch-on option for screens with non-16:9 aspect ratios

Features & gameplay
- Allow entering a custom name for main character
- Quicksave (q / F5) now also works during dialogue, so you can save before a skill check
- AI executives are no longer offered training courses

Fixes
- Fix a crash during the tutorial when a chat message cleared the chat popup
- Cancelling a requisition no longer resets the progress of the item currently being procured
- Fix crash when quickloading (F9) after the referenced save was deleted
- Acquiring a holding now also transfers the companies it owned, so their resources and employees count toward your totals
- Fix Leiser's phone missing image asset & remove reference to non-existing set-ecosystem
- Fix a crash when trying to continue after loading a skill-check from savegame
- Amoeba's hostile takeover of Glazial and your Pacman defense can no longer both succeed, which produced contradictory dialogue and a wrong ending
- Default image cache to also support low memory machines
- Harden against a bug where Glazial and Amoeba could acquire each other simultaniously
- Restore some broken voicelines
