Adds a game_settings.tbl flag to force preloading models used for briefing icons. This runs in mission post-process so it only loads models used for icons that haven't already been loaded for the mission.

This is useful for SCPUI's where hovering over an icon shows the model without having to click on it and the stutter when it loads models not used in mission is super obvious and a poor player experience.
