If a keycode can not be found on the list from keymap.cfg a second search
is done for the scancode. This should be helpful to assign
layout-dependent keys with rare keycodes.
Also: use a hash table for the keys (instead of a list).
Add two new scan codes for dead keys on german layouts: LEFTOF1 and
LEFTOFDEL.
* use keyrepeat and textinput switch code from sauer (on windows, opening
a console with "t" also produced a "t" as text otherwise)
* screenw and screenh are now cubescript-variables that always reflect
the actual resolution of the screen or the window
DOCREF screenw screenh
* switch travis to trusty
* new parameter fullscreendesktop: uses desktop resolution for fullscreen
* "colorbits" removed, since it's no longer supported
* scr_w/scr_h no longer necessarily reflect the true display resolution
(with fullscreendesktop = 1 and fullscreen = 1, scr_w and scr_h are
ignored)
* desktopw and desktoph are now guaranteed to have nonzero values
* fallback to old mouse behaviour when SDL_SetRelativeMouseMode fails
* require a click into the window to grab the mouse
* scr_w/scr_h default to desktop resolution on first run
thx sauerbraten :)

The demo data is collected, hashed and compressed fully in memory, mostly
in a worker thread.
While in memory, each demo is identified by an unique sequence number,
which is, for example, used to request a download by the client.
If so configured, the demo is written to file by the worker thread.
If F10 is pressed later than two minutes into the next game, instead of
downloading the last game, the current game is scheduled to be
automatically downloaded when it ends.
At the end of a game, all clients and the server sign the demo file.
If a filename does not contain at least mode, map and timestamp (due to
messed up format strings), the default format is used to ensure unique
filenames.
server side: added server parameters
demo_max_number
number of demo files to hold in RAM
demo_save

The server keeps track of every player ID that ever connected successfully.
This database stores the last names and IPs used by the player and the
last countries the connections came from. Some stats are counted, like
"time connected" and "total tks". Most importantly, the database stores
rights (like admin) and restrictions (like ban). All rights and
restrictions are kept as dates (or timecodes), so, for example, if your
ban date is in the future, you are banned - and if it's in the past, you
can play. The collected stats are meant to help server owners at managing
players - especially, if they want to give someone admin rights.
The database is periodically saved to a file and read from that file on
startup. The default file is config/servervita.cfg and one backup is kept
in config/servervita_bak.cfg. During server start, if the regular file
can't be loaded, the backup is tried instead.
While the server is running, it checks periodically for a file named
config/servervita_update.cfg, and if the file exists, it is renamed to
a backup filename including a timecode and read and merged into the
database. The automatic rename makes sure, that a file is only read once.
Using such updates, a server owner can easily give several people admin
rights or for example, add clan tags for a whole list of IDs. (Yes, the
database also stores a clan tag for every ID...)
The database also stores two short comments for every ID. One can only be
read by server admins, but the other one is public. The public reason, for
example, can state a reason for a ban.
One database record takes up 264 bytes of RAM. During autosave, accounts,
that have not been used for a specified time (default 12 months), will
not be written. After a server restart, those old records will be gone.
Currently, there is no process in place, to also clean up old records
from RAM. Maybe, that'll be added later...
Uses own thread to actually write to logs, so the main thread can't be
blocked by a slow logfile. Log entries are buffered in two ringbuffers,
one for the main thread and one for all other threads. The main thread
will copy the second buffer to the main buffer periodically. The main
thread buffer is read from the log worker thread.
Since two buffers are kept, there are now several functions to add a log
entry:
mlog()
for main thread functions only: will never block
tlog()
other threads only: may block, until main thread copied some entries
xlog()
automatically determines, which thread it's been called from and
then writes to the proper buffer (will block accordingly)
To avoid improper usage, mlog and tlog verify, if they are used correctly.
(Only for debug builds. An assert triggers, if necessary.)
(to avoid casting IPs to signed integer)
also mute single number debug messages for compound data structures like
string and key: no longer print a debug message for every char of a string
Instead of a list of specific map+mode combinations the maprot now only
contains general rules for maps and game modes. The server then calculates
the list by itself when needed. The server accounts played maps and modes
(and map+mode combinations) and calculates the list specifically not to
overplay maps or modes.
May need further testing.
A list of parameters is read from config/serverparameters.cfg once per
minute and the values written to corresponding server data structures.
If the binary is compiled in debug mode, starting a dedicated server
will write a blank config file with all possible parameters and their
descriptions, sorted and grouped into chapters.
The name of the config file can be set with the commandline parameter -A.
So far, syntax errors are not reported. Instead, it's possible to dump
all current values to a file every time something changes.
"readserverconfigsthread" gets triggered by poll_serverthreads() once a
minute to check the filesizes of all server config files. Altered files
get loaded into memory.
poll_serverthreads() in the main thread then processes the buffered files
one at a time. During processing, a semaphore is locked, so that other
threads can use the data structures derived from config files - if they
use the semaphore to lock the ressource.
Using the data from main thread can be done without using the semaphore,
since _all_ changes are done in the main thread.
If the main thread wants to update data that is locked by a thread, the
main thread will defer the changes for a minute. The main thread will
never lock.
also:
* -Y now sets the private key for the server
* -m without argument uses default masterserver URL
* servers run LAN-only by default (set ms URL and private key to
register with the master)
* use generic locale "POSIX"

updateeditinfopanel is a cubescript hook to provide additional information
about the current edit situation, like, for example, the closest entity.
The returned text is rendered on the right side of the screen.
Default for updateeditinfopanel is explainclosestentity which provides
detailed info about the closest entity.

Images are stored in packages/misc/igraph/*.png and loaded during game
start. Filenames consist of the image shorthand (mnemonic) and optional
frame times, separated by "_". Keep in mind, media file names may only
contain letters, digits and "_-.()".
All texts displayed in the game console are scanned for mnemonics prefixed
with ":". All found matches are replaced by the image.
The images are displayed as squares with width and height the same as the
regular font height. To create animations, put several square images side
by side into the file. For example, a 128x32 image is interpreted as four
frames. Frame duration is encoded in the filename, so, for example the file
"nop_1000_200_100.png" shows the first frame for 1000 milliseconds, the
second frame for 200 msec and the third (as the rest) for 100 msec.
Igraphs "1" to "9" are hardcoded and can be manually encoded in menu texts.
Use the new escape code "\i" plus the number of the image: "\i\1".."\i\9".
Other images can be used in menus as well, but the codes have to be fetched
by getigraph.
new commands:
updateigraphs
Checks for new files in packages/misc/igraph. Only necessary, if new
files are added during the game - for example, by mod package download.
getigraph <mnemonic>
Returns an encoded string to display an image outside the console, or
an empty string, if the mnemonic was not found.
new parameters:
igraphsize 80..300 (default 120)
scales the images (in percent)
igraphsizehardcoded 80..160 (default 106)
scales the hardcoded images "1".."9" (in percent)
igraphanimate 0..1 (default 1)
if 0, only the first frame of every image is displayed
igraphdefaultframetime 5..2000 (default 200)
used for images with multiple frames but no frame duration specified
in the filename
hideigraphs 0..1 (default 0)
if 1, no new images will be shown in the console

also clean up and fix some stuff: lilswap(unsigned long long int) mapped
to the 32-bit swap code...
added some runtime tests for the hash functions - now they will crash at
