Moonglow Toolset: rebuilding the Aurora module editor

Moonglow Toolset reimplements the Aurora module editor for Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition in Rust, egui and wgpu. It reads game data from a local installation and edits areas, blueprints, scripts and modules; its authors compare output against Aurora and the game and publish findings on GFF, 2DA and editor behavior.
