[3.2.4] UMAPINFO: BossAction simply doesn't work

Exactly what it says in the title. Example WAD here, taken from a UMAPINFO project I've been working on.

Expected behavior: Killing all Hell Knights calls Boom linedef special 221 ("S1 Floor Lower To Adjacent Floor") on tag 4, while killing all Barons of Hell calls Boom linedef special 103 ("S1 Door Open Stay") on tag 5. This is the behavior that occurs in the version of PrBoom+ Graf made to get the UMAPINFO ball rolling (repository here).
Current behvaior: On GZDoom 3.2.4, killing all Hell Knights does nothing, preventing access to the Barons outside; likewise, no-clipping out of the inner room and killing all the Barons also does nothing, preventing the final door from opening to let the player leave the stage.

Shouldn't this load the translator from the active GAMEINFO section instead of hard-coding it to Doom?

To be honest, I am not sure. UMAPINFO is not meant to be used outside of Doom, and the specials that it is checking are actually hard-coded anyhow.

I suppose it doesn't hurt to have this commit, but Graf can always revert it later.
