Add a display server construct for DRM/KMS mode. The main use is
to provide resolution changes (including automatic refresh rate
switch) for this configuration, i.e. DRM context and OpenGL drivers.
To enable refresh rate restoration after automatic refresh rate
change, av_info->timing_fps is also adjusted on core close / RA exit.
No effects expected on CRTSwitchRes.
After PR #14821 , the contents of msg_hash_xx.c files are present
in the normal translation workflow. Since that time, almost all
languages have either caught up on Crowdin, or are still on such
low level of translation completeness, that removing these entries
does not harm usability.
Only Chinese Simplified and Portuguese Brazilian languages remain
in separate files, as they may still be considered an improvement
over Crowdin status.

* 🎵 Fast forward audio resampling. Solves #15160.
Previously, we avoided doing any resampling while fastforwarding based
on the assumption it was impossible to make the audio not crackle due to
both flush-to-flush timing fluctuations and timer accuracy.
However, turns out this is not the case. The audio doesn't "crackle" per
se when the timing fluctuates! It's just that the sounds don't make
sense since the time compression and decompression caused by the flush
time fluctuations mess with the audio consistency.
To work around that, we introduce a running average flush delta time
that makes sure the audio is both resampled to approximately the correct
rate and consistent.
This was tested in two settings:
- Limited rate fastforwarding (2x-4x)
- Unlimited fastforwarding
In both cases it seems to work well, but with unlimited fastforwarding
it's just high pitched and annoying, so this is probably the most useful
in the 2x to 4x range.
* Move declartion to support C89
* resampling ratio upper and lower bounds
* Add toggle for speeding up audio
If cores are not deterministic, or if they only have bounded
determinism, we can obtain less drift if replay files also contain
periodic checkpoint states. These are configured by the new retroarch
stting replay_checkpoint_interval (measured in seconds). States are
inserted into the replay file in between frames.
This patch also fixes the settings display for the replay
autoincrement max keep setting.

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.
Help texts can be activated for some menu items using Select / RShift.
These text items were hardcoded in msg_hash_us.c (and related translations).
This commit changes the simple text items to get the source from msg_hash_us.h
(or its translations).
using roughly the same implementation for the ok/notice/cancel sounds, but i've made an exclusive function for scrolling since it's going to be called a lot more than those sounds

- New descriptors: 'dpad_area' and 'abxy_area'
- Each has a diagonal sensitivity setting, 100% being 8-way symmetry
- Buttons can be redefined in the cfg file
E.g. This would create a d-pad area, then redefine it to use analog directions:
overlay0_desc0 = "dpad_area,0.85,0.57,rect,0.166228,0.295516"
overlay0_desc0_up = "r_y_minus"
overlay0_desc0_down = "r_y_plus"

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.
With stateless mode being disabled for now, there is no reason not to include this.
Refuse to initialize netplay when the current core is not supported (no proper savestates support).
Closes https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/3414
I have investigated the issue. The crux of the problem is that on Android there
is no way distinguishing 2 scenarios:
1) 2 identical bluetooth controllers A and B and first there are button presses
only on controller A and then on controller B
2) the same controller disconnects and reconnects.
Android doesn't give bluetooth mac address of where the touch came from, only
opaque ID and this opaque ID changes after reconnect. Hence without changes to
android this is infeasible without giving up the ability for 2 users to play on
identical controllers.
I guess that this sacrifice makes sense for affected users

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
This can fix a lot of performance issues, like audio crackling and frame
time spikes. This requires the GameMode package to be installed. See:
https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode
This commit adds a "Game Mode" bool option to the "Power
Management" and "Latency" settings sections, and it can be toggled
on/off without restarting RA.
The actual toggling of game mode happens in a new frontend platform
interface function. Perhaps this will become useful for other platforms
that provide some equivalent of Linux GameMode.
Since the GameMode ABI is fixed, and the API comes as a single,
header-only file with no actual deps, we simply bundle the header
(deps/feralgamemode/gamemode_client.h.) That way, all Linux builds will
have support for GameMode regardless of whether the GameMode development
package is installed or not.
* Added setting to allow/disallow players other than the host from pausing the game.
* Added a sublabel for netplay max connections.
* Fixed port override macro from not being set immediately after the port setting.
* Fixed memory leaks.
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.

Pressing the START button removes the device pairing. Useful in case
the device (e.g. gamepad) was paired with a different adapter/computer
and needs to be paired again with current adapter/computer.
To pair again, RetroArch needs to be restarted, so the device list is
populated again.
