- Startup Summary split off from Verbose Mode, added option to hide for games with zero core cheevos
- Some existing options moved into this submenu
- Leaderboard-related options coming in future PR
When running on Android, RetroArch considers most devices that emit dpad events as gamepads, even if they also emit other keyboard events; this is usually the right thing to do, but it has the side effect of not letting some actual keyboards (e.g.: Logitech K480) act as such inside RetroArch. This configuration option allows users to manually select a specific input device to act as a physical keyboard instead of a gamepad, which is handy when emulating computers as opposed to consoles.
* Allow repositioning of achievement notifications
* PS4/ORBIS build fix
Would have thought cheevos-related notification code was wrapped in HAVE_CHEEVOS, but guess not.

one - if you set the last parameter to a valid 'rarch_setting_t' pointer
and enum_msg to MSG_UNKNOWN, you will get the previous menu_entries_append
behavior
* Renamed remaining function to menu_entries_append so that we have one
consistent way of adding menu entries instead of two
Reduces some code duplication significantly
Reasons:
1 - Just a macro for strcpy
1.2 - doesn't have a return type unlike strlcpy, can't be used
for string concatenation
1.3 - unsafe compared to strlcpy
Do either manual string assignment per character or strlcpy, no
inbetween by resorting to strcpy
as deprecated.
* Use fill_pathname_join_special in the vast majority of cases where
we can ensure out_path is a new empty string
* Get rid of some extension concatenation with strlcat where encountered
* Some general cleanups with NULL termination of strings that get immediately
passed to strlcpy/strlcpy-adjacent functions
Path: Netplay -> Host -> Kick Client
- Allows the host to kick clients.
- Allows the host to view client information: connected clients (names), status (playing/spectating) and ping.
* Support for Swift, added emulator keyboard
* fixed toggle key handling using magic number hack for now
* fixed keyboard transparency slider for now with suboptimal fix; add gesture recognizer to hide/show keyboard
* Support CocoaView extensions in Swift; move keyboard delegate impl and setup to swift extension
* moved keyboard view model creation out of EmulatorKeyboard
* implement key pressed delegate in swift extension
* added input method for directly sending RETROK_* codes to support a touchscreen keyboard; assign keyboard model delegates; updated keyboard layout (added F1-F12 keys); change shift, control and alt keys to be modifiers
* enable focus mode when custom keyboard is shown; enable/disable overlay when custom keyboard is toggled
* Specify -DHAVE_OPENGLES2 instead of -DHAVE_OPENGLES3 since glsym_es3.h does not compile in iOS 14.5
Fix tvOS build using compiler flags
* Create new project for iOS 13 deploy target; add check for deploy target to conditionally compile for new iOS 13 specific feature (custom keyboard)
* force disable core info caching for iOS, use opengl es2 for debug
* Add flag for iOS custom keyboard - 3-finger swipe up to show, 3-finger swipe down to hide
* use OpenGLES2 instead; using ES3 results in compile time errors on iOS 14.5
* code cleanup
* Updated references to -DDONT_WANT_ARM_ASM_OPTIMIZATIONS flag
* Add JIT support for non-jailbroken devices
* iOS: Add support for touch mouse handler

* Visual improvements to the emulator keyboard: updated colors, improved key-press effect
Lobby Viewer: Filter out rooms that are not running RetroArch
Lobby Viewer: Display a non-connectable tag to non-connectable rooms.
Host: Display warning if we are announcing to the internet but our room isn't connectable from there.
* Netplay Stuff
## PROTOCOL FALLBACK
In order to support older clients a protocol fallback system was introduced.
The host will no longer send its header automatically after a TCP connection is established, instead, it awaits for the client to send his before determining which protocol this connection is going to operate on.
Netplay has now two protocols, a low protocol and a high protocol; the low protocol is the minimum protocol it supports, while the high protocol is the highest protocol it can operate on.
To fully support older clients, a hack was necessary: sending the high protocol in the unused client's header salt field, while keeping the protocol field to the low protocol. Without this hack we would only be able to support older clients if a newer client was the host.
Any future system can make use of this system by checking connection->netplay_protocol, which is available for both the client and host.
## NETPLAY CHAT
Starting with protocol 6, netplay chat is available through the new NETPLAY_CMD_PLAYER_CHAT command.
Limitations of the command code, which causes a disconnection on unknown commands, makes this system not possible on protocol 5.
Protocol 5 connections can neither send nor receive chat, but other netplay operations are unaffected.
Clients send chat as a string to the server, and it's the server's sole responsability to relay chat messages.
As of now, sending chat uses RetroArch's input menu, while the display of on-screen chat uses a widget overlay and RetroArch's notifications as a fallback.
If a new overlay and/or input system is desired, no backwards compatibility changes need to be made.
Only clients in playing mode (as opposed to spectating mode) can send and receive chat.
## SETTINGS SHARING
Some settings are better used when both host and clients share the same configuration.
As of protocol 6, the following settings will be shared from host to clients (without altering a client's configuration file): input latency frames and allow pausing.
## NETPLAY TUNNEL/MITM
With the current MITM system being defunct (at least as of 1.9.X), a new system was in order to solve most if not all of the problems with the current system.
This new system uses a tunneling approach, which is similar to most VPN and tunneling services around.
Tunnel commands:
RATS[unique id] (RetroArch Tunnel Session) - 16 bytes -> When this command is sent with a zeroed unique id, the tunnel server interprets this as a netplay host wanting to create a new session, in this case, the same command is returned to the host, but now with its unique session id. When a client needs to connect to a host, this command is sent with the unique session id of the host, causing the tunnel server to send a RATL command to the host.
RATL[unique id] (RetroArch Tunnel Link) - 16 bytes -> The tunnel server sends this command to the host when a client wants to connect to the host. Once the host receives this command, it establishes a new connection to the tunnel server, sending this command together with the client's unique id through this new connection, causing the tunnel server to link this connection to the connection of the client.
RATP (RetroArch Tunnel Ping) - 4 bytes -> The tunnel server sends this command to verify that the host, whom the session belongs to, is still around. The host replies with the same command. A session is closed if the tunnel server can not verify that the host is alive.
Operations:
Host -> Instead of listening and accepting connections, it connects to the tunnel server, requests a new session and then monitor this connection for new linking requests. Once a request is received, it establishes a new connection to the tunnel server for linking with a client. The tunnel server's address and port are obtained by querying the lobby server. The host will publish its session id together with the rest of its info to the lobby server.
Client -> It connects to the tunnel server and then sends the session id of the host it wants to connect to. A host's session id is obtained from the json data sent by the lobby server.
Improvements (from current MITM system):
No longer a risk of TCP port exhaustion; we only use one port now at the tunnel server.
Very little cpu usage. About 95% net I/O bound now.
Future backwards compatible with any and all changes to netplay as it no longer runs any netplay logic at MITM servers.
No longer operates the host in client mode, which was a source of many of the current problems.
Cleaner and more maintainable system and code.
Notable functions:
netplay_mitm_query -> Grabs the tunnel's address and port from the lobby server.
init_tcp_socket -> Handles the creation and operation mode of the TCP socket based on whether it's host, host+MITM or client.
handle_mitm_connection -> Creates and completes linking connections and replies to ping commands (only 1 of each per call to not affect performance).
## MISC
Ping Limiter: If a client's estimated latency to the server is higher than this value, connection will be dropped just before finishing the netplay handshake.
Ping Counter: A ping counter (similar to the FPS one) can be shown in the bottom right corner of the screen, if you are connected to a host.
LAN Discovery: Refactored and moved to its own "Refresh Netplay LAN List" button.
## FIXES
Many minor fixes to the current netplay implementation are also included.
* Remove NETPLAY_TEST_BUILD
Adds new entry (where the entry for dumping CD is) to eject the disc -
in case the CD drive has no physical button to eject the disc / the
button does not work. Useless for most, but quality of life improvement
for some.

This also allows WiFi passwords to be remembered. The underlying
tool (connman) allows to store passswords (that's why it auto connects
whenever you boot a Lakka device), so we expose this so that the user
does not have to re-input the pass when connecting to a saved wifi.
Option to forget a password to come in a future PR, for now a password
is automatically forgotten if the Wifi connect operation fails (we assume
it fails due to password).
Changes the WiFi API to enable these features of course!
