The current NETMSG_PING and NETMSG_PING_REPLY messages suffer from the
fact that you cannot know whether a given NETMSG_PING_REPLY is from your
NETMSG_PING.
Summary
=======
The idea of this is that clients will not have to ping each server for
server infos which takes long, leaks the client's IP address even to
servers the user does not join and is a DoS vector of the game servers
for attackers.
For the Internet, DDNet and KoG tab, the server list is entirely fetched
from the master server, filtering out servers that don't belong into the
list.
The favorites tab is also supposed to work that way, except for servers
that are marked as "also ping this server if it's not in the master
server list".
The LAN tab continues to broadcast the server info packet to find
servers in the LAN.
How does it work?
=================
The client ships with a list of master server list URLs. On first start,
the client checks which of these work and selects the fastest one.
Querying the server list is a HTTP GET request on that URL. The
response is a JSON document that contains server infos, server addresses
as URLs and an approximate location.
It can also contain a legacy server list which is a list of bare IP
addresses similar to the functionality the old master servers provided
via UDP. This allows us to backtrack on the larger update if it won't
work out.
Lost functionality
==================
(also known as user-visible changes)
Since the client doesn't ping each server in the list anymore, it has no
way of knowing its latency to the servers.
This is alleviated a bit by providing an approximate location for each
server (continent) so the client only has to know its own location for
approximating pings.
3492: Support F-Client and replace non-extended extension messages r=Learath2 a=heinrich5991
This continues what #3439 started, and also replaces non-extended messages that are DDRace extensions with extended messages. The DDNet server still sends the old message to old clients and the DDNet client still understands the old messages.
Supersedes #3439.

3561: Fix input message position in teehistorian files r=heinrich5991 a=Zwelf
Previously the message was recorded when incoming. But the time when the input should apply wasn't recorded. Now inputs are recorded right before they get applied in the game world.
And record exact tick where load/save result is returned.

The PLAYERFLAG_AIM can now be set directly on DDNet servers via the 0.7
bridge and will be sent to clients identifying themselves as DDNet
clients.
Add a new extended message that mirror the old `Sv_TeamsState`.
To be friendly to other implementors of the format, the CRC field is now
zeroed out instead of completely gone.
Drop support for v2 and v3 of the ghost format, the ghost files should
have been automatically converted by the client already.
Not planning to do this automatically, but at least cleaning it up once
provides some benefit. Every header should include what it uses.

Purely automatic change. In case of conflict with this change, apply the
other change and rerun the formatting to restore it:
$ python scripts/fix_style.py
At the moment it only happens the next time you press refresh.
Before we had it so that it always reloaded once the ddnet info arrived,
causing a quick flickering and lots of packets having to be resent every
time someone pressed refresh, even if nothing changed.
The new approach combines the advantages of both without the
disadvantages. An even nicer way would be to compare the json objects,
so that news and version updates don't matter, but our json library
doesn't seem to support that.
- Fix a use-after-free when there are no new snapshots for the cl_dummy tee after the switch.
- When one of the tees is hooked, cycling through them will no longer show phantom hook for the other tee.
- Dummy switch might happen a bit quicker since it doesn't depend on receiving new snapshots.
- Simplified code: m_LastDummy2 is no more.
This gets rid of the problem that we don't know whether we should send
full snapshots to clients because they haven't told us about them being
DDNet yet.
Add libnotify support for linux client
Also unify notification management
Make libnotify mandatory for the client. It is installed on 100% of Arch
Linux systems and on 70% of Debian systems. I'd guess the remaining
Debian systems are servers.
Detect dependent libraries of `libnotify` using `pkg-config`. Remove
library-specific code from the game module. Decrement refcount for
libnotify notification object before leaving the function.
- videorecorder only works for recording demos now
- demoplayer was modified to allow controll over the time that passed
in order to get perfect fps, IVideo controlls how much time passed,
basically every rendercall sets the time to record the next frame
