Commit 88b5e616a9 ("Replace calls to
window_set_visible in DoPlayerDead() with stop/start_time()") switched
from hiding the game window to only stopping time, and that only if
hiding the window would have stopped time. In multiplayer, this allows
time to continue running. This introduced a crash if the player dies
during the mine countdown. When the player dies, the game checks if the
reactor has been destroyed. If so, the game immediately advances to the
next level. That advance will try to draw the game window if it is
visible. When the window is drawn, if time is not stopped, then game
logic runs. Some of that logic is not prepared to deal with the
inconsistent state present when a new level is only partially loaded.
That inconsistent state then causes a crash. Call stack:

The root cause of this is the layering violation:
- Killing the player can have the side effect of advancing the level
- Advancing the level can have the side effect of calling multiplayer code while the level data is in an inconsistent state
- Calling multiplayer code can cause the event system to redraw the game
- Redrawing the game can cause game logic to run
Hack around this by restoring the logic that hides the game window, so
that the window is not redrawn and the game logic is not run. This does
not fix the layering problem, but prevents crashing affected users. To
avoid undoing the feature from the breaking commit, hide the window only
when advancing to a new level, rather than unconditionally. A player
advancing to a new level already lacks the move-at-cold-start capability
even on successfully escaping the mine, so no functionality is lost with
this change. Players who are dead and do not advance to a new level
retain that capability.

- 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.
`check_effect_blowup` should receive the `laser_info` of the weapon that
caused the blast. Previously, it was given the `laser_info` of the
parent of that weapon. The parent was not of type `OBJ_WEAPON`, so
passing its `laser_info` is meaningless.

clang warns that this interferes with copy elision. The generated code
is slightly worse after following clang's advice and removing this, but
this is not a hot path, so take the hit to silence clang instead of
complicating the source.

gcc-4.9 std::array::size() is `constexpr`, but gcc-4.9 refuses to
initialize a local `constexpr std::size_t` from the result of calling
`size()` on a `std::array`. Later gcc permit this. gcc-8 generates the
same code whether the variable is `constexpr std::size_t` or `const
std::size_t`, and the latter allows gcc-4.9 to build, so remove
`constexpr` and use plain `const`.

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.

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.

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.
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.

User Nemesis reported an unspecified crash, but never responded to
inquiries to provide more data. Users Tourmeister and Buff Skeleton
reported a fatal exception thrown while paging in a vclip, with initial
triggering conditions matching the report from Nemesis. Both
Tourmeister and Buff Skeleton are using v1.0 Descent 2 data. No one
with more recent data has reported a problem.
Add a try { ... } catch { ... } block to trap the partial_range
exception, log it, and then ignore paging in that vclip. This should
approximate what 0.58.1 did, assuming that the crash is due to a
negative `num_frames`. If the crash is due to a large positive
`num_frames`, this change will still prevent the previously reported
crash, but may only move the crash elsewhere. Various other subsystems
react badly to using a vclip that has not been paged in.
This change is tested not to break an otherwise working game. It is not
tested to confirm that it produces a working game for users who
experienced a crash without it.

The player appearance sound was tied to the player appearance vclip,
but this is wrong because the vclip has a shorter lifetime than the
sound. This mistake was previously hidden by the hack that caused
non-permanent sounds to be routed off to a separate queue that lost the
association between object and sound. Commit 4a98e79 eliminated that
hack because it complicated the work of that commit. However, without
the hack, object sound effects cannot outlive their host object.
Fix this by binding the sound to the position of the appearance effect,
not to the appearance object. This works since the appearance effect
cannot move, so there was no value to binding the sound to the object.
This solution could not be used for objects that move and terminate
before their associated sound effect.

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.

`memcpy(a, b, strlen(b));` is just a complicated way of writing
`strcpy(a, b);`, but even more dangerous since it omits the null
terminator. `strcpy` on untrusted data is always unsafe, and this data
does not appear to be checked before use. There is no need to copy the
data before using it, so switch to using it in place. This eliminates
the security problem and makes the code slightly smaller.
