This PR aims to start addressing `ESM` design issues that have silenced errors we incorporated into groundcover `ESM` loading approaches.
- We move the resolution of `parentFileIndices` from `ESMStore` to `ESMReader` as suggested in a `TODO` comment.
- We improve a highly misleading comment which downplayed the significance of `parentFileIndices`.
- We document important preconditions.
- We move a user facing error message to the highest level and improve its context.
- We remove an inappropriate `setGlobalReaderList` method. We now pass this reader list into the method that requires it.
- We remove a thoroughly pointless optimisation of `Store<ESM::LandTexture>`'s construction that has unnecessarily depended on `getGlobalReaderList`.
There should be no functional changes for `master`, but this PR should remove an issue blocking PR #3208.
Factoring common code parts outside of a template
is apparently a good practise to reduce code duplication
(and the size of openmw by around 0.5%),
and should improve a bit the performances,
since the whole `std::to_string` * 2 + string concatenation
dance results in quite a lot of code, preventing inlining on my machine.
- Use an unordered_set instead of a list to
keep track of skipped records.
- Reduce the number of conditions when parsing 4-letters
records by using a switch-case instead of cascading conditions.
- Add a const
The progress is not particularly accurate. It simply uses the current / total number of records written/read as indication. Cell records are currently the largest by far, but there is a good chance that could be optimized using a change tracking system.

- Quick hack: OMW::Engine::prepareEngine only loads translation data for the first master file.
- Add preliminary support for loading some unique fields appearing only in savegames
- Add a few lines required for supporting respawning references. Incomplete.
