[BUG] SCREENSHOT_TYPE

My screens save to BMP, but the SCREENSHOT_TYPE cvar is PNG. If the OpenGL system only allows BMP saves, it should set it to BMP.

The screenshot_type CVAR is only for the software renderer.

DevIL can save screenshots to any format it supports. You need to link ilut though (ilut.dll is only 16kb so it's not really going to make much difference in filesize or anything).
ilGenImages(1, &id);
ilBindImage(id);
ilutGLScreen();
ilSave(IL_PNG, filename);
ilDeleteImages(1, &id);

I don't need ILUT for that. BUt yes, I wanted to add that for some time now. But I don't see any use in saving PCX's so it will be PNG exclusive and the CVAR still won't have any effect.

Actually, ZDoomGL basically does that but without ilut. I think ilSaveImage() will automagically save in the correct format for the filename passed in.
