- Raise the player limit to 8.
- Remove the logic that forces player counts up/down when switching
between cooperative and deathmatch game modes.
- Add heuristics to add start positions for the extra players, since
standard maps will not have the required number of starts.
Add experimental support for using ADL MIDI instead of SDL for music
playback. Support for ADL MIDI contributed by Github user jpcima. This
feature is minimally supported by the core Rebirth team, but is included
as a courtesy so that users need not patch in support separately.
Suggested-by: jpcima <https://github.com/dxx-rebirth/dxx-rebirth/pull/408>
Add configuration file entries for number of chips, bank index, and
whether to use ADL MIDI. Currently, there is no GUI for this.
Interested users must enable it via direct configuration file editing.
A menu interface will come later.
- Use the Windows type `HMODULE` on Windows, and define a local alias to
it on non-Windows. This makes the code slightly clearer about the
nature of the value `handle`.
- Move the `dlopen` emulation into the anonymous namespace to encourage
inlining, since the wrappers are trivial name/signature compatibility
functions.
- Move the error reporting out of the template function, so that it is
not redundantly instantiated for each type used with the template.
Global data will default to nullptr, so the initialization is
unnecessary. Some compilers may store the pointer in `.data` when it is
initialized to any value.

Add macro cf_assert ("control flow" assert) to hint to gcc that certain
conditions are impossible. Use it to avoid generating range checks for
situations that never happen. If the event did happen, the only
consequence would be truncated UI text, rather than a correctness
problem.
Move it to a structure. Make all the modifiers methods. Change all
callers of those methods to pass the structure. This makes the stuck
object handling free of direct access to global game data.
gcc-7 allows `constexpr auto X = std::initializer_list<unsigned>{A1, A2,
...};`. gcc-8 rejects it:
```
common/arch/sdl/key.cpp:583:105: error: 'const std::initializer_list<const SDL_Scancode>{((const SDL_Scancode*)(&<anonymous>)), 3}' is not a constant expression
constexpr auto sticky_keys = {SDL_SCANCODE_CAPSLOCK, SDL_SCANCODE_SCROLLLOCK, SDL_SCANCODE_NUMLOCKCLEAR};
```
Switch to a macro and a fully anonymous list, which is accepted by both
versions.
Fixes: f491059ed7 ("Enable building with SDL2")
This commit enables Rebirth to build with SDL2, but the result is not
perfect.
- SDL2 removed some sticky key support. Rebirth may behave differently
now in this area.
- SDL2 removed some key-repeat related support. Rebirth may behave
differently now in this area.
- SDL2 gained the ability to make a window fullscreen by sizing it to
the desktop instead of by changing the desktop resolution. Rebirth
uses this, and it mostly works.
- Resizing while in the automap does not notify the automap code, so
the view is wrong until the player switches out of automap mode and
back in.
- SDL2 changed how to enumerate available resolutions. Since
fitting the window to the desktop is generally more useful than
fitting the desktop to the window, I chose to drop support for
enumerating resolutions instead of porting to the new API. Users can
now enter an arbitrary window dimension and Rebirth will make an
attempt to use it.
- It might be useful to cap the window dimension at the desktop
dimension, but that is not done yet.
- Entering fullscreen mode through the Controls->Graphics submenu
failed to notify the relevant subsystems, causing the rendered
content not to rescale. For now, compile out the option to toggle
full screen through that menu. Toggling through Alt+Enter works
properly.
Despite these quirks, this is a substantial improvement over the prior
commit, where SDL2 cannot be used at all. The remaining issues can be
resolved in future work.

gcc-8 adds a new warning controlled by -Wcast-function-type, which is
implied on by Rebirth's default options. This new warning rejects
attempts to reinterpret_cast between function pointer types. While this
might provide some value when the function pointer was derived by taking
the address of a properly declared function provided elsewhere in the
same program, it is wrong when the function pointer is returned by an
external library call, such as GetProcAddress, which always returns a
placeholder type instead of the actual type of the target function.
Switch to using a union with type-punning, which achieves the same
effect as the cast, but does not count as a cast, and therefore does not
provoke the warning.

User jcotton42 suggested copying a D2X-XL feature: preserving the
directory structure of the user's missions area when showing a New Game
dialog. This was substantially more trouble than it should have been,
but the result is good.
Previously, the dialog presented all missions at any depth below the
starting point, and sorted them as if they were all in the root
directory.
Now:
- Empty directories are hidden entirely. There is nothing for the user
to do in them, so there is no point showing them.
- A directory with exactly one entry has that entry promoted into the
parent, since there is no ambiguity about what the user would want.
If the parent in turn has only that one promoted element when the scan
of the parent finishes, then the element can be promoted up again.
This continues until the root is reached or until a level has more
than one entry. For this purpose, both missions and directories count
as entries.
- Directory entries are decorated to inform the user how many
immediate subdirectories are present, how many missions are present
immediately in the directory, and how many missions total are present,
counting all subdirectories. If there are zero immediate
subdirectories, then the directory count is not shown. For this
purpose, directories that were hidden due to a lack of missions are
not counted.
- Sub-dialog boxes for inner directories use a title that reminds the
user of the path so far, and recaps the directory/mission statistics.
- On entry to the New Game dialog, if the last played mission is in a
sub-dialog, appropriate sub-dialogs are opened so that the last played
mission can be pre-selected.
Currently, there is no in-game override to return to the prior rollup
rules.

Per comment from kreator, some Apple systems now ship without a working
print screen key. It makes no sense to provide print screen support
bound to a key which does not exist. Add `screenshot=none` and activate
it on OS X to remove the unreachable screenshot support.
GCC std::remove_if overwrites removed elements using:
*dstiter = move(*srciter);
This is fine for normal containers, but produces incorrect results when
*dstiter returns a proxy object instead of a reference. In that case,
the proxy object is move-assigned from the source, then goes out of
scope. If the move assignment did not write to underlying storage, as
valptridx proxy objects do not, then incorrect results occur. This
broke ActiveDoor handling (fixed in 4a01fab66d98[1]) and has been a trap
waiting to recur. Apply reference-qualifiers to valptridx objects so
that move-assignment requires an lvalue for the left-hand side. This
permits normal use of move-assignment, but forces a compile error if
std::remove_if or similar are used on valptridx proxy objects.

digi_play_sample_once is supposed to cancel prior instances of the
sound, but that functionality was lost in
21082c6db2. As a result, the sound can be
stacked up to the limit of the engine. Even when the functionality
existed, its implementation was wrong.
- Change these sounds to be attached to the player generating them.
- Pass the cancellation flag to other players when sending a sound.
- Send the full value of `volume`, rather than truncating it.
- Implement cancellation by killing and restarting the earlier version of a cancelled sound.
- Delete an ugly hack that prevented the patched logic from ever running.
- Fix an ancient quirk in digi_mixer that caused it to report all sounds as not playing, which then caused digi_sync_sounds to instantly cancel the new sound.

Future work is simpler without this, and the stringified name is only
visible in debug output, which is in turn rarely used due to its
verbosity and lack of filtering controls.
Per C99, this code was always wrong. The results of `snprintf` are
undefined if the target string array and one of the supplied input
arguments refer to the same buffer. In practice, this particular usage
happened to work by wastefully copying a string onto itself, then adding
more content at the end. Switch to appending properly, which also fixes
the gcc-8 -Wrestrict warning.

Various files included compiler-static_assert.h to use the compatibility
macros for compilers that lacked a working C++11 static_assert.
However, some source files used static_assert without this inclusion,
and no one ever reported problems. From this, assume that no one uses a
compiler which lacks C++11 static_assert. Remove the inclusions that
were only for the compatibility macro. Keep the inclusions that use the
assert_equal helper.
- Remove the one test that clang-5 still fails.
- Require all remaining tests to pass using only C++11 native
static_assert.
- Remove preprocessor-based alternative static_assert implementations.
gcc-8 adds calls to static_assert with a comma inside its first
argument in the implementation of std::vector. This is legal within the
standard, but conflicts with Rebirth's use of static_assert as a
two argument preprocessor macro. The macro is not substantially useful,
and was only present to compensate for the clang limitation removed in
the previous commit. Remove the macro.

valptridx contains `static_assert` statements of the form:
static_assert(var.m, "");
where `var` is a non-`constexpr` reference and `m` is a `static
constexpr` member of a base type of `var`. gcc recognizes that a
`static constexpr` member is a constant expression and permits this.
clang rejects this, presumably because `var` is not a `constexpr`
variable. In the almost 3 years since this was added, clang has not
improved to permit this usage. Rather than continuing to suppress
static_assert in clang, rewrite this expression to be less clear, but be
compatible with clang.
gcc-8 has special cases in its std::advance that require the target to
support `operator++` and `operator--`. These are easy to support, so
add them.

gcc-8 warns that static_cast<dt &>(d) is useless. In general, it is
useless. It is present to force a compile error in cases when `d` is
not convertible to `dt &`. Switch to a compound statement that declares
a local reference to `d` of type `dt &`. This achieves the same
checking effect, but does not provoke the -Wuseless-cast warning.

Users with disabled VSync might not expect any forced waiting on the GPU,
and the GL sync methods were intented to fix issues with VSync only,
so the new heuristic for SYNC_GL_AUTO is to enable GL sync only if
VSync is enabled, too.
Users can still request to use a specific GL sync method via the
-gl_syncmethod switch, independent of the VSync setting.
[Kp: folded `else { if () }` into `else if ()` to avoid moving
`ogl_have_ARB_sync` lines. Original change visible at
<https://github.com/dxx-rebirth/dxx-rebirth/pull/381>.]
This mirrors the logic from calc_frame_time(). When VSync is enabled,
waiting for the previous frame to complete might induce long wait periods,
up to the complete frame time, so we should also handle multiplayer there.
For the other sync modes, the GL calls will simply block, so we can't do
anything about that (except going multithreaded, but that's a totally
different can of worms). Note that even without sync, the SwapBuffers()
call in gr_flip() may also block if VSync is on (and enough frames are
queued up), so the issue is not the GL sync code itself.
SYNC_GL_FENCE_SLEEP is now probably the nicest mode for multiplayer
with VSsync, as it is the only one which has the potential to continue
handling multiplayer packets during the wait for VBlank time.
Packed structures cannot be passed by reference, may fail on
alignment-strict architectures, and are bad for performance even on
alignment-tolerant architectures. Using them for anything other than an
abstract layout declaration is a mistake. Remove
__attribute__((packed)).
gcc-5 rejects `constexpr bool DefiningMarkerMessage() const` because
`d_marker_state` is not literal. Later versions of gcc accept this, but
the `constexpr` is not useful here since one term is a runtime variable.
Remove `constexpr`.
Also, modify the definition of `marker_message_text_t` and
`d_marker_state` to encourage the compiler to initialize `MarkerState`
at compile time instead of load time.

`build_colormap_good` only took `used` to clear it. Only one caller
needed it cleared. Move the clear into that caller. Remove the
parameter from all calls.
If !defined(DXX_HAVE_CXX_BUILTIN_FILE_LINE), the default value is
omitted, but the comma between values is still required. The comma was
incorrectly guarded, so it was present only when a default value was

Fixes: 544fc0f893 ("Add support for increased precision of gamelog timestamps")
- Enable display of subsecond (Linux: microseconds; Windows:
milliseconds) precision on gamelog timestamps.
- Add disabled support for YYYY-MM-DD leaders on gamelog timestamps.
Activate it by defining DXX_CONSOLE_TIME_FORMAT_YMD to true.
- Add disabled support for capturing caller __FILE__, __LINE__ in calls
to con_printf, con_puts. Activate it by defining
DXX_CONSOLE_SHOW_FILE_LINE to true. If captured, write those to
gamelog after the timestamp and before the text. This feature (and
only this feature) requires that DXX_HAVE_CXX_BUILTIN_FILE_LINE be
defined, which is conditional on if the compiler has __builtin_FILE()
and __builtin_LINE(). If the compiler lacks this support, attempts to
enable this feature are ignored.
- Switch to using GetLocalTime on Windows.
