Polychoron 0.0.5 alpha update

A new alpha update is here. This is mostly a maintenance update with no radical changes but there are a lot of important fixes and minor improvements here and there.

• Added support for HTML5 version.
• Fixes to issues when using GLES2 renderer.
• Tweaked lighting with GLES2 renderer to compensate for lack of HDR and GI.
• Adjusted HUD for better visibility on mobile.
• Toggle HUD visibility with F5.
• Show performance statistics with F3.
• Require a name for high scores.
