FREESCAPE: Demo mode does not match the original implementation in Driller

Description
In all supported releases of Driller (DOS/Amiga/AtariST), the demo mode does not execute exactly what is needed to replicate the expected behavior. Re-implementing the exact movements is a challenge, since the limited precision of the arithmetic of the original code when calculating the player position should be emulated as close as possible.
Additionally, in the retail versions, the demo mode is not enabled automatically.

Support for replaying demo is better thanks to the usage of the original co(sine) tables. It is still not working properly for mouse position.
