We only show the string value directly in the UI instead of using the demotype enum literals. There also should not be any reason to change any logic depending on whether the current demo is a server- or client-demo.
The SHA256 was effectively not optional anymore when recording demos, as it and the SHA256 extension UUID were always written to the demo file without checking for `nullptr`. Therefore the SHA256 is now passed by const reference instead of by pointer and redundant checks for `nullptr` are removed.
We already use `CClient::LoadMapSearch` to load maps for demo playback, so maps in the `maps` folder are already considered. Using the map CRC is deprecated, we do not want to check it.
Using an `std::vector` is simpler and more readable than first allocating a linked list on a heap and later copying the list to an array.
The variable `m_SeekablePoints` is removed from `CPlaybackInfo`, as it does not need to be exposed outside of `CDemoPlayer` and can be replaced with the size of the vector.
The client/server jobpools were previously only using a fixed number of 2 threads. Now the pools use `2 * hardware-concurrency + 2` threads, which should provide better performance overall, as we expect threads to often wait on I/O.
Previously all demo players checked `IVideo::Current` to render a video, which would cause issues when rendering a demo while a demo slicing background job is running. Now video rendering can be toggled for each demo player individually and is only enabled for the main demo player.
Use member instead of static variables for demo player snapshot data. The static variables would otherwise cause issues when multiple demo players are playing at the same time, especially demo players used in background jobs for replay demo slicing. This hopefully closes#7068.
Use composition instead of inheritance for demo player listener to avoid temporarily storing a pointer to a local variable in a member variable.
Fix demo player file not being closed when demo recorder file cannot be opened during demo slicing.
Add assertions to check that demo recording/playback is not started when already running.
Add assertions to check that demo recording/playback is stopped before the respective demo recorder/player is destroyed.
The TODO in the `Dilate` function is removed, as the code already appears to be safe without additional checks. The variable `k` is at most `(w * h - 1) * BPP`, as `ix` and `iy` are clamped to maximum `w - 1` and `h - 1` respectively. Because `p < BPP - 1` the index `k + p` is therefore always valid for the buffers. (The caller must ensure that the source and destination buffers are of size `w * h * BPP`.)
Improve layout of demo browser buttons, search and checkbox. Use icons for most buttons. Decrease size of UI elements.
Move demo details from below the file browser to a side panel on the right, which is the same size as the server browser side panel. Use ellipsis to truncate the SHA256 instead of rendering only half of it with reduced font size. Show "map not included" instead of "0.00 KiB" for the map size of demos that don't include a map.
Remove the "Markers" column, as it is not very useful to see for all demos and sort by.
Closes#7275.
Simplify the usage of datafile reader and writer by adding utility functions to read and write zero-terminated UTF-8 strings.
Improve validation of string data read from datafiles. It is ensure that string data is null-terminated, has no internal NUL-characters and is valid UTF-8.
Fix loading of external sounds in the editor. The wrong path variable was being used, so the sound files would not be loaded from correct folder.
Add tests for new datafile reader/writer functions.
