Description

Add a browser target for DeviltuionX via webasm.

Current status is that we can build for webasm, though the event model does not work with the webasm port of SDL as there can only be one event loop and we have about 5 atm.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore how to adapt the multiple event loops to conform to SDL's webasm single event loop constraint. Review the current event handling code and consider a unified event queue.
