- 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.
This has been broken for more than 5 years and no one reported it.
Perhaps truecolor movies are not used.
Fixes: acb664ae40 ("Use proper type for mve backbuffers")
Shrink it from 1MB to 300KB. Add a diagnostic if the expansion fails
due to insufficient capacity.
300KB is required for the ship cockpit bitmap. Everything else seems to
be smaller.
User jammer1 reports that Python under MSYS2[1] reports a `sys.platform`
of `msys`. For the limited purposes Rebirth requires, this platform can
be treated as if it were `win32`. Add a mapping to apply this change
automatically, so that users do not need to set it on the command line.

enable_build_failure_summary=1 assumed that the command to display was a
list. For internal pseudo-commands, such as write_pch_inclusion_file,
the command was a string, so calling ' '.join() was incorrect. When the
output is not a list, pass it through unchanged.
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.
The prior design was meant to allow the hook to be called instead of the
normal function, with the hook chaining to the normal function and then
performing other work as needed. This flexibility is unnecessary, and
complicates improvements elsewhere. Replace it with a hook that is
called with the result of the regular StaticObject call.
Use of the comprehensions makes the code less readable and harder to
modify. The performance benefit, if any, is in the noise. Switch to
an unpacked form.
