Small improvements to the frontend lib for better debugging

Welp. We have a bit of a problem here. Reverting the move of nextturn. But this causes a desync in scripting unless we can find a better fix.

here it is

Implemented game launching API for the frontlib. It is still buggy though, and not all game settings can be conveniently created/modified yet.

Don't make unnecessary calls to TestWhip, TestFirePunch, TestBaseballBat and TestHammer functions as they have no need to take Targ parameter into account and thus may only be called once per position

Implemented public API for letting the engine render maps

Make watching AI v AI on ai survival a bit more entertaining

Added ini reading/writing for game schemes to the frontend lib

Workaround for bug #144. This workaround had occurred to me a while ago, but wasn't sure if placing them unfairly was better than not placing them at all. Argument for not placing at all is people should probably abort the game when they notice it. Argument for placing unfairly is people can still abort, and if we really wanted them to abort, we should probably just have halted launch if all hogs failed to spawn. This way at least play can continue.

Frontlib: Work on the callback mechanisms for IPC Work commit; It compiles and runs but will need a major overhaul tomorrow.

After experimenting with a long running average at maxed out FPS and a variety of map sizes, 128 seems to actually be a good size to use if only drawing bits of world with stuff in it. 64 actually did even better in some situations, but significantly worse in others (lots of land, zoomed out).

frontlib refactoring socket.h now completely wraps all the lowlevel neworking, so it would be easy to switch away from SDL_net if needed. Also reduced global state by making an IPC connection an object-like thing.

Only create textures for non-empty LandPixel chunks. This should save a fair amount of memory, especially on smaller maps, and eliminate a number of draws

Merge

warp sound when AI survival hog respawns. attempt at a bit of a crate spawn animation (moar sparkles and a quick fadein)

Android: added a callback to java to determine dpi/dip how much we should scale the ui

Merge

add onGameTick20 to basic training, extend laser sight out way more (it was visible at top when completely zoomed out), move call of new turn to after AfterSwitchHedgehog to avoid lua issues in onNewTurn - if this causes problems, lua can do delayed actions in onGameTick

Some brainfucking code which greatly reduces number of TestCollision* calls in hedgehog walk routine. Especially helpful to AI optimization. Also fixes some edge cases.

Demo recording for the frontend library

Name the flags for fall tracking and indicating whether the explosion erases terrain.

Moved frontlib into project_files

merge

Further work on the frontend library, restructuring, ...

merge

Add a GetTag method so that SetTag doesn't feel lonely.

Started work on the frontend networking library

Improve TestWhip

minor tweaks for options page; should improve readability at small window size... a bit...

Removed dead/deprecated code and comments

pas2c stuff

This should make drawn maps rendering even more faster

Merge

merge

Render drawn maps 10-500 times faster

Oops, forgot to set 'erasing' flag on decoding

Fix a bug with wrong state of teams list when color isn't changed manually

Remove a couple more timers, should mean alpha matches old pulse time now

also change specialists

Set air attack to active by default, make time look a bit nicer, avoid plane buzz activating.

change the array which represents the keyboard state to be a boolean array rather than byte array

Don't allow for multiple key up(or down) events, it will ignore the excess events

Also change Highlander and Racer

moved generic matrix code to uMatrix.pas updated shader and client logic to use a mat4 rather than ftransform or gl_ModelViewProjectionMatrix.

merge

merge

Add onGameTick20 to try and encourage lua to be a bit more efficient. Rewrite Space Invasion to use it. Top speed of aliens is 25% higher now, although that could be changed, I kinda liked it. Change parameter order of div().

Some improvements to pas2c

Fix a remote crasher

- Fix some AI stupidness factors - Slight optimizations and formatting

Make frontend compile with clang

- Allow switching colors with mouse wheel - Use indices instead of color values - Introduce a model for colors - Some small fixes, .pro can be used to build again - Yay, tested it to work via network (and fixed a bug!) (TODO: pass colors to engine by index)

initial GLSL1.2 test version

Minor freezer changes, allow snow to accumulate on indestructible terrain too.

Removed lazy update: workaround for R7103

Bring leftTeams back (with a fix) as it is apparently needed for spectators.

merge

- Restore pre-r9257cf8e7af2 behavior - Get rid of leftTeams, send REMOVE_TEAM immediately instead
