* use smart pointers for almost all widget fields
* use SDL2 texture for cursor
* a lot af small tweaks and formatting
* removed CompImage class, it is actually useless as long as regular SDLImage support margins
* CGuiHandler: use smart pointers for [push|pop]Int
We need to make sure it's not stay active during gameplay.
Proper fix would require actually removing menu interface from GH, but then GH needs refactoring too.
* Changed most gui classes to use shared pointers
* Store and use IImage as shared_ptr
* CSpellWindow redesign
* AdventureMapClasses cleanup
* CLabel: store background as smart pointer
* Store CObjectList items as smart pointers
* Removed destroy function of list item

New features for players:
* Loading for multiplayer. Any save could be used for multiplayer.
* Restart for multiplayer. All clients will restart together.
* Loading from single save.
* Hotseat mixed with network game. Multiple players per client.
* Now connection to server could be cancelled.
* Return to menu on disconnections instead of crashes.
* Restoring of last selected map, save or campaign on next run.
TLDR on important changes in engine code:
* UI: work with server separated from UI
* UI: all explitic blitting replaced with IntObject's
* UI: all new code use smart pointers instead of DISPOSE
* Gameplay always start through lobby controlled by server.
* Threads receiving netpacks now shared for lobby and gameplay.
* Campaigns: heroes for crossover now serialized as JsonNode.
* Universities, Scholars and Witch Huts may offer new skills
* Moved encode/decodeSkill to CSkillHandler
* Refactored CSkill interface and CSkill::LevelInfo image storage
* Legacy game constants renamed to ORIGINAL_XXX_QUANTITY
Addresses several related problems:
* Propagation / unpropagation of duplicate bonuses is inconsistent, causing bugs
* Duplicate bonuses never stack, which is not always intended behaviour (e.g. multiple copies of resource generating artifacts)
* Different bonuses always stack, which is not always intended behaviour (e.g. Angel + Archangel morale bonuses)
This is addressed as follows:
* Duplicate bonuses are never eliminated during propagation/inheritance.
* Unpropagation eliminates only a single copy of duplicated bonus
* Bonus receives a new field stacking that determines stacking behaviour:
* * empty string = no stacking with duplicates (default)
* * "ALWAYS" = stacks with duplicates & everything else
* * some other value = no stacking with bonuses with same stacking value
Also Morale/Luck window now hides non-stacking bonuses.
* Indirect spell effects loading
* Json serializer improvements
* spell->canBeCastAt do not allow useless cast for any spell
* Added proxy caster class for spell-created obstacles
* Handle damage from spell-created obstacles inside mechanics

* [Tests] Started tests for CUnitState
* Partial fixes of fire shield effect
* [Battle] Do HP calculations in 64 bits
* [BattleAI] Use threading for spell cast evaluation
* [BattleAI] Made AI be able to evaluate modified turn order (on hypothetical battle state)
* Implemented https://bugs.vcmi.eu/view.php?id=2811
* plug rare freeze when hypnotized unit shots vertically
* Correctly apply ONLY_MELEE_FIGHT / ONLY_DISTANCE_FIGHT for unit damage, attack & defense
* [BattleAI] Try to not waste a cast if battle is actually won already
* Extended JsonSerializeFormat API
* fixed https://bugs.vcmi.eu/view.php?id=2847
* Any unit effect can be now chained (not only damage like Chain Lightning)
** only damage effect for now actually uses "chainFactor"
* Possible quick fix for https://bugs.vcmi.eu/view.php?id=2860
-Position is now relative to castle interface
-The highest level of creature is now presented.
-Improve positioning of creature card, now it's look like in hd mod.
* Set vcmiclient as VS_STARTUP_PROJECT so it's will be default debug target instead of ALL_BUILD.
* Add AIs and server as dependencies for client so VS will suggest to rebuild them before debugging.
* CGameHandler::buildStructure was using wrong requirements for buildings in auto mode.
* Build mode loading was wrong in case of omitted value
* Show town hall slot for not built building only if it have normal build mode
Just want add fast some really nice shortcuts from HD mod.
1) [LShift] + LClick – splits a half units from the selected stack into
an empty slot. WARNING: The second behaviour ("smart split, ignores
single creatures") of this HD mod option is not done.
2) [LCtrl] + LClick – splits a single unit from the selected stack into
an empty slot.
3) [LCtrl] + [LShift] + LClick – split single units from the selected
stack into all empty hero/garrison slots
* margin option .json animation
* Use ranged attack animation for spell cast if there is no cast animation, display cast animation only on active casting.
- macOS: RPATH-related code all removed or disabled

- Added add_subdirectory_with_folder function to make sure 3rd-party libraries are affected by USE_FOLDERS.
Currently server stable enough and only crash on shutdown.
It's certainly more annoying to crash on end of game than get freeze.
Unfortunately it's crash on shutdown almost every time on macOS.
Static variable might be not yet initialized by the time it's used inside CGuiHandler constructor.
This fix let us avoid crash that occur when built with Xcode 8.2.1
* it is possible now to add casts and shoots OTF (f.e. with spell bonus)
Centralized stack 'ammo' loading from bonus system.

* All command line options now case insensetive.
* SDL_VIDEO_X11_DGAMOUS unused in SDL2 so it's removed.
* Added current year into the --help output for client and server.
* Moved DO_NOT_START_SERVER into session settings.
* Added experimental support for cumulative effects for ENCHANTED bonus

Now client accept following options:
--disable-shm - disable shared memory usage
--enable-shm-uuid - use UUID for shared memory identifier
UUID is useful when a lot of clients starting simultaneously.
Needed for testing and was easier to implement than alternatives.
Before when CloseServer / LeaveGame applied there was no thread sync on server.
Now server use std::atomic bool for synchronization and graceful shutdown.
Following mode only work when client is started in spectator mode:
F5 - Pause / resume game by locking of pim
F6 - Toggle spectate-ignore-hero
F7 - Toggle spectate-skip-battle
F8 - Toggle spectate-skip-battle-result
F9 - Skip current battle
If running with --spectate/-s CPlayerInterface will appear even without human players.
Following command-line options also available:
--spectate-ignore-hero
--spectate-hero-speed=N
--spectate-battle-speed=N
--spectate-skip-battle
--spectate-skip-battle-result
Boolean options can also be changed in runtime via client console:
set spectate-ignore-hero on / off
Spectator mode also:
- Work with --onlyAI option when starting game or loading saves.
- Allow to use any cheat codes.
- Give recon on towns and heroes.
* new configuration option 'general.saveRandomMaps'
* maps being saved to 'userCachePath/RandomMaps'
* no deletion of old random maps
* map filename generated based on template name and random seed
If shared memory allocation failed on client server will be started without shared memory option.
Only downside of this is that server wouldn't be able to fallback to random port if default is busy.
* Avoid server crash on dummy connect / disconnect.
* Avoid server crash when host left from PreGame.
* Server print it's state with name when it's waiting for connection or in pregame.
* Server will use random port if specified port is busy.
