None of the current game plugins currently access this data so lets not export it. Bumped DE_API_INTERNAL_DATA to ver 2.
Todo: Doomsday should automatically generate Sprite definitions from the sprite frame resources in WAD files (similarly to Materials), if placed and named according to id Tech 1 conventions. Game plugins and Doomsday Scripts will be able to access the definitions via the Defs database. Authors will be able to define new Sprites and/or modify the IWAD originals using .ded files.
If necessary, ResourceSystem could build a runtime representation of this data for use with the renderer (probably won't be; most of the relevant selection logic can be encapsulated in a new defn::Sprite accessor and asset/resource caching is handled at another level).
