Tweak cvar defaults

This changes the default value for a few console variables :

• movebob: 1 => 0.25
• playersforexit: all => 3/4
• advancemap: next => random
• cam_speed: 0.3 => 0.4
• cam2_speed: 0.3 => 0.4
• timerres: classic => mania
• fov: 90 => 100

Additionally, gr_modelinterpolation no longer has an "always" option and now is just on/off, defaulting to "on" (formerly "sometimes").

I don't have any strong feelings one way or the other about removing timerres' "Tics" option (it's nice, but only as a developer/scripter) - but if that's intentional, you should at least mention it in the merge request's description, and probably also remove the if (cv_timetic.value == 3) parts in src/st_stuff.c and src/y_inter.c.

[...] gr_modelinterpolation: sometimes => off [...]

"Sometimes" allows the model animator to decide when to and when not to interpolate animations. Why not default to "the model's default"?

I am not a developer so my input is maybe useless but "Off" is closer to how things appear in Software, and it's pretty clear at this point that Software's appearance is the game's intended art style. Though, at that point I question why the "All" option exists if a modeller can simply turn on interpolation for every animation if they so desire.

I'd heavily recommend removing the model interpolation "Always" option if you're going to default it to off. The "Always" setting actually just breaks everything so there's no reason to use it, and it makes the setting more confusing.

In fact I have a commit you can cherry-pick if you want to do this https://git.srb2.org/pastel/SRB2/-/commit/b4723f878d23429123ccd56a19ad9d975ab6c0b7
