Ivan Savenko 879aaba980 Use json instead of json5 for syntax highlight in docs 
Looks like website only recognizes javascript & json, and is not aware
of jsonc or json5.

Will result in small regression on Github web view - comments will show
up as red (since comments are not part of json format), but syntax
highlight would work both on website and on Github.

Alternative is using javascript for syntax highlight, however syntax
highlighter for json looks better on both website and Github (since it
uses separate highlighting for json keys, separate from strings in
values)

Supported bonus types

Subtype resolution

All string identifiers of items can be used in "subtype" field. This allows cross-referencing between the mods and make config file more readable. See Game Identifiers for full list of available identifiers

Example

"bonus" :
{
	"type" : "HATE",
	"subtype" : "creature.enchanter",
	"val" : 50
}

This bonus makes creature do 50% more damage to Enchanters.
