"Client process -> shared VCMI lib <- Server process" is turned into "shared Client-VCMI lib -> process <- static Server-VCMI lib"
- adds lib_client and lib_server targets that define distinct namespaces
- lib_client is a dynamic library which is shared with AI libs, lib_server is static
issues to solve:
- dynamic_cast error 2: One or more of the following type_info's has hidden visibility or is defined in more than one translation unit. They should all have public visibility. 13CPackForLobby, 20LobbyClientConnected, 20LobbyClientConnected.
- error setting socket option: set_option: No buffer space available

Disabled the following (for MSVC only) that couldn't (or shouldn't) be fixed.
4003: not enough actual parameters for macro 'identifier'
4250: 'class1' : inherits 'class2::member' via dominance
4251: 'type' : class 'type1' needs to have dll-interface to be used by clients of class 'type2'
4275: non dll-interface class 'type1' used as base for dll-interface class 'type2'
Replaced const TBonusListPtr with TConstBonusListPtr where necessary
Replaced const std::shared_ptr<T> with std::shared_ptr<const T> where necessary.
Removed superfluous use of const.
Replaced const std::shared_ptr<T> with const std::shared_ptr<T> & in function parameters and ranged for-loops.
* The reason is,
the mine has attribute hidden=true;
when enemy unit moves, the code in BattleInfo.cpp MoveUnit() (line 817) will update the revealed to true;
then in the CGameHandler.cpp handleDamageFromObstacle() (line 4846) is checking , and the condition battleIsObstacleVisibleForSide() will return true, so the effect will not be triggerred.
Resolution:
1. Remove the "revealed=true" in moveUnit(), and in handleDamageFromObstacle, remove the "const" restrict for obstacle, and then update revealed to true;
2. After the takeDamage function, add a pack "BattleObstaclesChanged" to update the obstacle to be "revealed=true".

- Visual Studio: enabled USE_FOLDERS for projects grouping. This also possibly affect other IDEs.
- Added add_subdirectory_with_folder function to make sure 3rd-party libraries are affected by USE_FOLDERS.
* it is possible now to add casts and shoots OTF (f.e. with spell bonus)
Centralized stack 'ammo' loading from bonus system.
* introduced small proxy class for local bonus cache
(no need to use global cache if particular selector used on node only in one place)
* handle killing resurrected creatures
* use IBonusBearer::MaxHealth() where possible
* Fixed https://bugs.vcmi.eu/view.php?id=2486
* Possible fix for 0 HP after resurrection.

* Unified CStack health API
* Use CHealth for CStack count and health points
* increased SERIALIZATION_VERSION
* Moved SUMMON_BOAT special case to mechanics
* Partially moved Town portal logic to mechanics class
* Added generic query reply to CCallback
* Redesigned Queries so that base API do not depends on CGameHandler
* Got rid of CGameHandler::castSpellRequest

* Initial implementation of cumulative spell effects.
* Scheme for new spell feature - cumulative 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.
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.
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.
* AI libs registering shenanigans on android;
* Fixed resolution aspect + mouse event scaling;
* Proper server init/deinit (through android IPC);
Enabled threaded init in CMT;
* Prevented a deadlock in logger on some devices;
* Fixed frozen intro frame after interrupting the video;
Added android progressbar displaying during initial data loading;
* Hacky fix for choppy animations during heroes movement (should look better now, but it's definitely not a good solution);
* Changes/fixes for new android launcher building process;
* Fixed app hang after getting SDL_QUIT when activity was destroyed;
* Functioanal, configurable advmap swiping support;
* VCMI changes cleanup;
Added few missing VCMI_ANDROID guards on swipe mechanics;
* Removed unneeded sleep in server startup code for android;
* Removed android ioapi hack (fixed in newest ndk);
* Removed unused android's library loading logic;
* Added android's swipe option to settings schema;
* Moved NO_STD_TOSTRING to be defined in global.h instead of build files;
Before: built-in spells appear on first move of the creature
After: all built-in spells appear before the first move but after tactics
Example: Air Shield for experienced skeletons
The cause of the assertion failure at BattleStackAttacked::applyGs "at"
was shooting and casting some spell in handleAttackBeforeCasting() and
eventually killing the whole stack. Fix: filter dead stacks in the end of
handleAttackBeforeCasting().
All suitable codes can now be used with "ai", "all" color or with object ID:
vcminahar all - will apply cheat to all heroes of all players
vcminahar ai - will apply cheat to all heroes of AI players
vcminahar blue - will apply it to all heroes of blue player
vcminahar 553 - will apply cheat to hero with instance id of 553 if it's exist
Cheats without options work as before.
Bonus * -> std::shared_ptr<Bonus>
This cures the following problems:
1) Memory corruption at exit. Some Bonus-es were deleted twice (mods?).
2) Memory leaks. Some Bonuses were not deleted.
3) Reduce the number of "Orphaned child" messages.
Valgrind reports 0 leaked memory now and no invalid reads/writes.
Now server properly check allowed actions for CGGarrison. Fix issue 2303
Server now allow all stack arrangement as long as troops stay inside garrison.
It's possible to put more troops inside using swap/merge/split, but not take anything out if it.
Now server-side code should always use CRandomGenerator::getDefault which is serialized in GH.
CGameState::getRandomGenerator should be only used from GS code and CPackForClient-based applyGs.
This is easiest way to make server RNG available to CBattleInfoCallback.
Now server, client and gamestate have own RNG instance.
Only server and gamestate RNGs are serialized.
This one fix issue 2455. We still need to do something with ArtifactID::ART_LOCK or ids for artifact from mods since they might conflict with each other.
Now damage is limited to total health of defending stack and clone have no file shield damage. In same time damage calculation is likely remain incorrect.
