- A touch pointer controlling the mouse/lightgun/pointer will ignore hitboxes if it slides into any.
- A touch pointer pressing a button will not control the mouse/lightgun/pointer if it slides out of the hitbox.
When loading and saving states taken during a replay, their contents
should be compared with the current replay.
- If in playback mode, states from past the end of the current replay
should be disallowed, as should states from an alternate timeline of
the current replay (inconsistent input history)
- This is because in playback mode, RA replays are read-only
- If in recording mode, states from the future or from another
timeline should overwrite the current replay's data with a warning
- In either playback or recording, loads of states from the past that
have a consistent series of inputs (same timeline) should be loaded
and the replay should be rewound (and truncated in case of recording)
This behavior is as specified in

The existing code only implemented some of these checks.
This can optionally encode and compress checkpoints. For now, only
raw encoding is supported, but e.g. delta encoding, block-based
encoding, or deduplicated encoding could be supported in the future.
Three compression schemes are included (selected automatically based
on compilation flags): ZSTD, ZLIB, or NONE.
All three schemes are supported for decompression if available.
For compression, ZSTD is preferred over ZLIB is preferred over NONE.
- rewinding past the start clobbers part of the header
- during recording & rewind, should not push input events
- during recording or playback, getting to the end of the rewind
buffer should not halt the movie
Some enhancement possibilities found while investigating another
issue - shift keys were swapped (especially noticeable in menu),
enter may be mapped to DPAD_CENTER by the system, but unfortunately
the 102. key can not be mapped separately.
Linux terminal settings were lost after restarting via menu.
This was caused by udev_input_init calling linux_terminal_disable_input multiple times.
New code follows the restore pattern of linuxraw_input.c
Add multi-mouse support for X11, by using XInput2 extensions. Only
master pointers are considered as mice.
New behavior put behind HAVE_XI2 and configure script extended with
necessary detection.
