Adding MonoGame.Extend to Xevious

Adding MonoGame.Extend to Xevious

MonoGame.Extend is a library that happens to include a content pipeline extension to add Tiled maps (.TMX) to the content Pipeline build via a custom content writer. I'd like to use it so I do not have to manually write the content importer. The library is under a MIT license and can be added to a project via a Nuget install.

Does anyone have an issue with this?

I don't. I think it's a decent thing to have a dependency on. I'm OK with it.

The one thing I do want to make sure of is that we still basically have our own internal representation of things. I don't want the game to be too dependent on Tiled. Once it gets loaded in, it should get transformed into it's "natural" form within the game, and doesn't know or care about whether it was produced by Tiled or not.
