Saving blockair/blockairh is nice because RecalculateBlockAirMaps uses the sim rng, which means the sim rng would get advanced in Simulation::Load. Also rename RecalculateBlockAirMaps to ApproximateBlockAirMaps because that's what it is, an approximation, and it's needed only if there are no block air maps in the save.
Simulation::frameCount keeps track of frames elapsed since the beginning of the simulation, zeroed at clear_sim. It overflows when it reaches the 64-bit limit, which means anything that depends on it should either handle this, or not fail catastrophically. sandcolour (the only thing that depends on it as of now) is a good example of the latter: sandcolour has a periodicity of 360 frames, which means that there is one sandcolour period that is cut short by the overflow. This is not "handled" (the period is cut short, which is detectable by users) but is not catastrophic either (it's not a big deal, and it won't ever happen unless someone hacks the save).
Also restrict saves with determinism data to 98.0.
Namely: no, yes, and yes and ask at startup.
The install_check option is thus replaced by the can_install option. -Dinstall_check=true maps to -Dcan_install=yes_check, while -Dinstall_check=false maps to -Dcan_install=yes. -Dcan_install=no is new and is recommended for downstream packaging, where -Dinstall_check=false was historically used.
Also improve error messages about bad configuration here and there and scatter configuration code in subdirectories, where they can be closer to their areas of effect.
Namely:
- get rid of unsafe memory management;
- use vectors / Planes everywhere;
- return a vector from serialization functions;
- have read functions take a vector;
- improve constness;
- hide a few implementation details from GameSave.h;
- get rid of GameSave copy constructor;
- better member initialization;
- use the slightly more C++-looking BZ2 wrappers.
The BSON library still takes ownership of the data it parses, and GameSave
ownership is still a joke. Those will need to be fixed later.
Also make ENFORCE_HTTPS optional, but default to enabled, so unencrypted HTTP is disabled by default, and require it to be enabled for release binaries.
Also Factor out app constants that mods might change into Meson options and clean up format::URLEncode in the process, convert app and document icon data in arrays to actual images, actualize AppStream data for possible future packaging, add alternative command line format for opening filesystem saves and ptsave URLs, fix a memory leak in Platform::GetCwd, and add format::URLDecode.
Also restructure meson.build and the ghactions workflow a bit, and enable -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections.
Note that starcatcher uploads have not been tested and most likely don't work.
