For some reason Wayland thought it would be clever to be the only
windowing system that (non-optionally) uses the alpha chan of the
window's default OpenGL framebuffer for window transparency.
This always caused glitches with dhewm3, as Doom3 uses that alpha-chan
for blending tricks (with GL_DST_ALPHA) - especially visible in the main
menu or when the flashlight is on.
So far the workaround has been r_waylandcompat which requests an OpenGL
context/visual without alpha chan (0 alpha bits), but that also causes
glitches.
There's an EGL extension that's supposed to fix this issue
(EGL_EXT_present_opaque), and newer SDL2 versions use it (when using
the wayland backend) - but unfortunately the Mesa implementation is
broken (seems to provide a visual without alpha channel even if one was
requested), see https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/5886
and https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/pull/4306#issuecomment-1014770600
for the corresponding SDL2 discussion
To work around this issue, dhewm3 now disables the use of that EGL
extension and (optionally) makes sure the alpha channel is opaque at
the end of the frame.
This behavior is controlled with the r_fillWindowAlphaChan CVar:
If it's 1, this always is done (regardless if wayland is used or not),
if it's 0 it's not done (even on wayland),
if it's -1 (the default) it's only done if the SDL "video driver" is
wayland (this could be easily enhanced later in case other windowing
systems have the same issue)
r_waylandcompat has been removed (it never worked properly anyway),
so now the window always has an alpha chan
The problem was that the editors called ChoosePixelFormat() instead of
wglChoosePixelFormatARB() - and the normal ChoosePixelFormat() has no
attribute for MSAA, so if MSAA is enabled (by SDL2 which calls the wgl
variant), ChoosePixelFormat() will return an incomaptible format and
the editors don't get a working OpenGL context.
So I wrote a wrapper around ChoosePixelFormat() that calls the wgl variant
if available, and all the necessary plumbing around that.
While at it, removed the unused qwgl*PixelFormat function pointers and
supressed the "inconsistent dll linkage" warnings for the gl stubs
Otherwise especially looped sounds continue playing while the menu
is open, especially noticeable when opening the menu while firing
the chaingun (the whirring sound continues playing).
OpenAL devices can disconnect, and with some luck they're back after
a few seconds. This especially seems to happen with Intels Windows GPU
driver and display-audio when switching the resolution or enabling
fullscreen, see #209
Now a disconnect is detected and we try to reset the device for 20
seconds, hoping it comes back. This needs at least openal-soft 1.17.0
to build and 1.20.0 or newer to actually work.
Also added missing stub functions in openal_stub.cpp (used by dedicated
server so it doesn't have to link libopenal)
* the OpenAL function definitions mustn't include __declspec(dllimport)
=> fixed by pretending to compile OpenAL statically
* glimp.cpp shouldn't be used in dedicated-only mode (as it was already
the case on Linux and OSX)
=> No special handling for ID_DEDICATED needed in glimp.cpp, as it's not
used anyway
* add APIENTRY to every gl function in stub_gl.cpp for compatibility
with windows headers and MSVC
* remove GL/gl.h #include from win_local.h as it's not needed
* in qgl.h, when building dedicated server for windows, redefine WINGDIAPI
to nothing for SDL_opengl.h #include to get rid off __declspec(dllimport)
by using #pragma push_macro and pop_macro, because our stub is no dll.

Some functions were duplicated, the only difference was a const in one
parameter. The definitions in the header were with const, so I kept
those versions.
Also, the functions in the header are pure C, so add extern "C",
this fixes issues with MSVC and the formerly duplicated functions.
Use SDL to set video modes, get a GL context and detect the
amount of VRAM.
As with the Linux GLimp implementation, sys_videoRam can be used
in case the SDL detection fails.
The class is only used for debugging and statistical purposes.
The precision is now reduced to milliseconds, but that's only
relevant for fine grained debug timings - where the old code
was inaccurate at anyway.
Don't include the lazy precompiled.h everywhere, only what's
required for the compilation unit.
platform.h needs to be included instead to provide all essential
defines and types.
All includes use the relative path to the neo or the game
specific root.
Move all idlib related includes from idlib/Lib.h to precompiled.h.
precompiled.h still exists for the MFC stuff in tools/.
Add some missing header guards.
