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.
clang issues -Wformat-nonliteral when `vsnprintf` is passed the format
string from its caller. This is generally not useful. Fortunately, the
warning can be suppressed by annotating the function as format(printf).
Presumably, this is because clang now trusts that the caller would have
been warned for a bad format string.

Rather than use an inline wrapper and rely on the compiler optimizer to
redirect gr_set_current_canvas(nullptr) to gr_set_default_canvas,
rewrite all relevant calls directly in the source.
git grep -l 'gr_set_current_canvas' | xargs sed -i -e 's:gr_set_current_canvas(\s*NULL\|nullptr\s*);:gr_set_default_canvas();:'
Commit f4b21088a0 ("Track vulcan ammo explicitly") fixed an original
retail bug that prevented the thief from stealing energy weapons,
because the thief could only steal weapons for which the player had ammo
and energy weapons never have ammo. This went unremarked for several
years, until a recent report of the new semantics as a game-breaking
regression because the thief is now "ridiculously potent".
Address this report, as well as an intermittently raised issue from
various users over time, by adding two new knobs to both the single
player "Gameplay" menu and the multiplayer setup screen: "Remove Thief
at level start" and "Prevent Thief Stealing Energy Weapons".
"Remove Thief" deletes the thief object during level load. It has no
impact on save games, and changing it after entering a level has no
effect on any thief already in the level.
"Prevent Thief Stealing" is checked at the moment of theft and, when
enabled, prevents stealing primary weapons other than Vulcan/Gauss.
This can be changed at will in single player and is immediately
effective. In multiplayer, this option can only be changed by the game
host in the pre-game setup.
For both knobs, there is one pair of checkboxes to control this as a
player preference, which applies in single player games. There is a
second pair of checkboxes in the multiplayer setup, which applies only
to multiplayer games. Therefore, in multiplayer, the host chooses thief
settings and all clients use the host's choice. The host may configure
the thief differently in multiplayer from how the host plays in single
player.
For users who wanted to remove the thief, no specific tally has been
kept for who requested it or when. Now that the code is being updated,
this is thrown in as an easy addition.

Previously, valptridx used PREFIX for allow-invalid+mutable, c#PREFIX
for allow-invalid+const, v#PREFIX for require-valid+mutable, vc#PREFIX
for require-valid+const. Convert the types, factories, and all usage
sites to specify a qualifier for all four combinations:
im#PREFIX -> allow-invalid+mutable
ic#PREFIX -> allow-invalid+const
vm#PREFIX -> require-valid+mutable
vc#PREFIX -> require-valid+const
Changes to common/include/valptridx.h and common/include/fwd-valptridx.h
are manual. All other changes are generated by:
git grep -lz -e '\(obj\|seg\|clwall\|wall\|actdoor\|trg\)\(ptridx\|ptr\|idx\)\(_t\)\?\>' | xargs -0 sed -i -e 's/\<\(v\?\)\(\(obj\|seg\|clwall\|wall\|actdoor\|trg\)\(ptridx\|ptr\|idx\)\(_t\)\?\)\>/\1m\2/g'
for the 'm' prefix and:
git grep -lz -e '\(obj\|seg\|clwall\|wall\|actdoor\|trg\)\(ptridx\|ptr\|idx\)\(_t\)\?\>' | xargs -0 sed -i -e 's/\<\([cm]\(obj\|seg\|clwall\|wall\|actdoor\|trg\)\(ptridx\|ptr\|idx\)\(_t\)\?\)\>/i&/g'
for the 'i' prefix.
When objp is nullptr, ai_door_is_openable assumes Buddy_objnum is a
valid object number, but this assumption is not guaranteed to be true.
When it is false, the game crashes. This crash can be triggered by a
brain robot trying to make nearby robots snipe.
Fix the crash by passing the robot of interest.

Yarn reported that Descent 2: Counterstrike level 9 can place the
guidebot in a situation where
(Escort_goal_index == object_guidebot_cannot_reach &&
Escort_special_goal != ESCORT_GOAL_UNSPECIFIED)
If this happens and the player grabs a powerup, then the game crashes
trying to check if the grabbed powerup was of the type that the guidebot
sought. Since the guidebot was not seeking any object, the answer is
that this is not the sought object.
The design ought not set Escort_goal_index to an invalid object index,
but it does. Fixing that is too invasive for now. Add a special case
to prevent this crash.

Contains 2 calls - to obj_create and init_ai_object. For safety reasons and tidiness compared to using obj_create directly. The call to init_ai_object in recreate_thief was already redundant.
