This is to ensure that the Class pointer can be set right on creation. ZDoom had always depended on handling this lazily which poses some problems for the VM.
So now there is a variadic Create<classtype> function taking care of that, but to ensure that it gets used, direct access to the new operator has been blocked.
This also neccessitated making DArgs a regular object because they get created before the type system is up. Since the few uses of DArgs are easily controllable this wasn't a big issue.
- did a bit of optimization on the bots' decision making whether to pick up a health item or not.
The global variable holding a pointer to this thinker should be a weak reference to the instance in the thinker chain, there is no need to mark this global variable, as the thinker's lifetime is only determined by the thinker chain.
- committed a few Posix related file the last commit missed.
I have no idea why they were even in there, as they intentionally circumvented all GC related features - they declared themselves fixed if prone to getting collected, they all used OF_YesReallyDelete when destroying themselves and they never used any of the object creation or RTTI features, aside from a single assert in V_Init2.
Essentially they were a drag on the system and OF_YesReallyDelete was effectively added just to deal with the canvases which were DObjects but not supposed to behave like them in the first place.
Let's use inline checkers in PType instead of constantly having to do clumsy IsKindOf checks etc. Once complete this also means that the types can be taken out of the class hierarchy, freeing up some common names.
src/p_pspr.cpp:363:37: warning: more '%' conversions than data arguments [-Wformat]
src/gl/textures/gl_texture.cpp:845:21: warning: comparison of integers of different signs: 'int' and 'unsigned int' [-Wsign-compare]
Fixed bunch of compilation errors:
cannot pass non-trivial object of type 'FString' to variadic method; expected type from format string was 'char *' [-Wnon-pod-varargs]
Fixed linker erorr:
g_doomedmap.cpp.o: In function `InitActorNumsFromMapinfo()':
src/g_doomedmap.cpp: undefined reference to `PClass::FindActor(FName)'
Combining these two groups of data has been the cause of many hard to detect errors because it allowed liberal casting between types that are used for completely different things.
Having these two types related can cause problems with detection in the compiler because for some parts they need quite different handling.
Common handling for the fields has been moved into PSymbolTable but overall redundancy was quite minor as both types share surprisingly little functionality.
A pointer to an object has quite different semantics so let's do this with proper virtual inheritance. This should allow to simplify a lot of pointer related checks in the compiler.
- fixed: IsVisibleToPlayer and optimized it a bit more.
- moved SourceLumpName to PClass, so that it can also be used for non-actors (there's a lot of non-Actor classes already.)
- separated the serializer for PClassPointer from PPointer. Even though not doable, a pointer to a class type is something entirely different than a class pointer with a restriction so each should handle its own case.
- added a few access functions for FActorInfo variables.
With PClassActor now empty the class descriptors can finally be converted back to static data outside the class hierarchy, like they were before the scripting merge, and untangle the game data from VM internals.
For these fields maps have no advantage. Linearly searching a small array with up to 10 entries is nearly always faster than generating a hash for finding the entry in the map.
- some optimization of access to OwnedStates in old DECORATE.
- consolidate all places that print a state name into a subfunction.
- allocate states from the ClassDataAllocator memory arena. States do not need to be freed separately from the rest of the static class data.
This reinstates the old FActorInfo as part of the meta data a class can have so that the class descriptor itself can be freed from any data not directly relevant for managing the class's type information.
This is not needed anymore because classes do not need to be replaced. The only reason this was implemented was the original design with the class descriptors taking on all the metadata themselves.
This is an incredibly costly way to do a debug check as it infests the entire VM design from top to bottom. These tags are basically useless for anything else but validating object pointers being passed to native functions (i.e. mismatches between definition and declaration) and that simply does not justify a feature that costs execution time in non-debug builds and added memory overhead everywhere.
Note that this commit does not remove the tags, it only discontinues their use.

Processing order is now the same as in Chocolate Doom
prBoom+ loads separate files after all WAD lumps though
This makes sense but would change loading sequence existed in ZDoom for years
This is somewhat brute-force thanks to the surprising lack of good documentation for the Ogg headers. The only other option would have been some rather bloated library for a function that should be 25-30 lines at most.
The idea is to have more control on the game side instead of dealing with these formats in the backend, which was done for FMod because it already had the decoders implemented.
However, with OpenAL this setup makes no sense and only complicates future extensions that can be better handled at a higher level.
No more error when running with +map command line parameter with classic HUD:
> VM execution aborted: Attempt to draw to screen outside a draw function
> Called from BaseStatusBar.DrawImage [Native]
> Called from DoomStatusBar.DrawFullScreenStuff at gzdoom.pk3:zscript/statusbar/doom_sbar.txt, line 140

- all 5 settings affected by uiscale have been changed to have the exact same semantics: -1, if supported means special scaling, this is available for HUD and status bar, 0 means to use uiscale, any larger value is a direct scaling factor.
- scaling is cut off when the factor is larger than screenwidth/320 or screenheight/200 because anything larger will definitely not fit.
- a lot of code has been cleaned up and consolidated. Especially the message code had an incredible amount of redundancy.
- all scaling options have been moved into a submenu. This menu is not complete, though - it still requires a special menu widget to convey the intended information without confusing the user.
- activated the RenderOverlay event, now that it can be called from the correct spot, i.e. right after the top level HUD messages are drawn. The system's status output will still be drawn on top of them.
- changed the effect spawn prevention of the Hexen flame strike weapon and reverted the attempt to fix this in FastProjectile.
This cannot be fixed in the base class, which was doing everything right. It's the flame missile that was doing undefined things by stopping its movement without clearing its missile flag. This cannot work because missiles are given some minimal forced velocity to ensure collision detection and any attempt to address this without clearing the missile flag is doomed to fail.
This allows using the UI scale or its own value, like all other scaling values.
In addition there is a choice between preserving equal pixel size or aspect ratio because the squashed non-corrected versions tend to look odd, but since proper scaling requires ununiform pixel sizes it is an option.
- changed how status bar sizes are being handled.
This has to recalculate all scaling and positioning factors, which can cause problems if the drawer leaves with some temporary values that do not reflect the status bar as a whole.
Changed it so that the status bar stores the base values and restores them after drawing is complete.
This would cut off overlong names and the handling for status bars with protruding elements was far too simplistic and worse, making assumptions based on game mode.
It now uses a virtual function to query the status bar itself for returning this information so it can be overridden and uses V_BreakLines to split the text if it is wider than the display.
