Resolves #4303

Description of the Change

Usage
[ sw!'yyy' ] or [ sw!"yyy"] for starwars symbols
[ gs!'yyy' ] or [ gs!"yyy"] for standard genesys symbols

Valid values

y/yellow/pro/prof/proficiency
g/green/a/ab/abil/ability
b/blue/boo/bst/boost
blk/k/black/s/set/sb/setback
r/red/c/ch/challenge
p/purple/d/diff/difficulty
w/white/f/force
*/suc/success
v/adv/advantage
!/tri/triumph
-/fail/failure
t/thr/thrt/threat
$/des/despair
l/light/lf/lightpip/ls/lightforce
n/dark/df/darkpip/ds/darkforce

You can specify arguments by typing out the value multiple times

spaces aren't required, they just make it easier to read, likewise you can use commas to make things easier to read

All arguments also accept the number of dice in front of them

The roller also sets the following variables

sw.lastRoll.success.    -   The number of successes (success + those rolls that count as success)
sw.lastRoll.failure     -   The number of failures (failures + those rolls that count as failures)
sw.lastRoll.advantage   -   The number of advantages
sw.lastRoll.threat      -   The number of threats
sw.lastRoll.triumph     -   The number of triumphs
sw.lastRoll.despair     -   The number of despair
sw.lastRoll.light       -   The number of light force
sw.lastRoll.dark        -   The number of dark force

For genesys rolls its gs.lastRoll... (except light/dark are not set)

Any where you use a number you can use one of the following

{variableName}
{@propertyName}
{?User Prompt}

Capture groups are supported with (groupName: roll)
You can access the values with the variable sw.lastRoll.group.groupName... (all of the same values as above for lastRoll)

Note the result contains all the values in the capture groups, they are not excluded from it
You can also have capture groups within capture groups

although the variable names start to get really long 🙂

Possible Drawbacks

There is no tool tip support due to what you can wrap tool tips around in current implementation.
I am sure others will want this type of support for other dice rolls we currently have

This seems to be good to me. I'm not familiar with these systems, though. Could it be important for, say, red dice to actually be coloured red in the results? Or are all the symbols unique so that doesn't matter?

The overall result is what matters not so much the colour of the dice... This is all based on feedback in discord as I am not really familiar with it either, no one has asked for colouring of the dice so I think from that point of view we would be ok for initial go at it. Would it be nice to colour them, probably but that's going to need updates to chat to make it theme reactive first since there are also white and black dice
