Before 8a2da49 the NewGRF names were synchronized using UDP packets, however
those have been removed. With this a new version of the GameInfo packet is
introduced that allows to specify the type of serialisation happens for
NewGRFs. Either only the GRF ID and checksum, or those two plus the name of
the NewGRF.
On this request for local servers will send the NewGRFs names.
The Game Coordinator will get the names on the first registration, and after
that only the GRF ID and checksum.
These were filled with "<Unknown>" (before 8a2da49) and later their name would get filled via UDP requests to the server. These UDP packets do not exist anymore, so they will always remain "<Unknown>".
Remove that logic and just use the generic translated error GRF UNKNOWN string instead.
This method doesn't require port-forwarding to be used, and works for
most common NAT routers in home setups. But, for sure it doesn't work
for all setups, and not everyone will be able to use this.

Now you can use things like `set server_game_type public` instead of having to
guess the number, which would not be written into the configuration file nor
would it be shown when doing `set server_game_type`.
Every outgoing connection, either TCP or UDP, triggered
NetworkInitialize(), which triggered NetworkUDPInitialize() which
first closes all connections.
Now the problem was that "Search LAN games" found a server, added
it to the list, after which (over TCP) it queries the server. This
closes all UDP sockets (as that makes sense, I guess?), while the
UDP was still reading from it.
Solve this by simply stop initializing UDP every time we make an
outgoing TCP connection; instead only do it on start-up.
In this mode you do register to the Game Coordinator, but your
server will not show up in the public server listing. You can give
your friends the invite code of the server with which they can
join.
This removes the need to know a server IP to join it. Invite codes
are small (~7 characters) indentifiers for servers, which can be
exchanged with other players to join the servers.
Normally TCPConnecter will do a DNS resolving of the connection_string
and connect to it. But for SERVER_ADDRESS_INVITE_CODE this is different:
the Game Coordinator does the "resolving".
This means we need to allow TCPConnecter to not setup a connection
and allow it to be told when a connection has been setup by an external
(to TCPConnecter) part of the code. We do this by telling the (active)
socket for the connection.
This means the rest of the code doesn't need to know the TCPConnecter
is not doing a simple resolve+connect. The rest of the code only
cares the connection is established; not how it was established.
This statement was removed by accident, as it felt it could be removed.
But it is used to know if the NewGRF is from the baseset folder or
from the NewGRF folder.

The C++ std::getenv is guaranteed thread-safe by the C++11 specification,
whereas the POSIX/C getenv might not be thread-safe by the C11 specification.
The outer if statement checks for 'aa' being false, so within the inner
statements anything checking aa will have a known result and the other
branch from there will be dead code.
This reduced the load on compilers, as currently for example MacOS
doesn't like the huge settings-tables.
Additionally, nobody can find settings, as the list is massive and
unordered. By splitting it, it becomes a little bit more sensible.
LoadCheck makes it sound like something is really broken while
loading savegames, while it really is perfectly normal, as most
chunks do not implement LoadCheck.
num_liveries indirectly contained the same information, but this
makes reading these things pretty difficult. So use IsSavegameVersionBefore()
like everywhere else instead.
IsSavegameVersionUntil() did a [0, N] check, not [0, N) as the
name suggests.
Until can be a confusing word, where people consider it to be
including the upperbound. Dictionary states it means "before",
excluding the upperbound. There are long debates about who is right.
So, simply remove away from this ambiguity, and call it "before"
and "before or at". This makes the world easier for everyone.
We no longer need them. If you want to remove a field .. just
remove it! Because of the headers in the savegame, on loading,
it will do the right thing and skip the field.
Do remember to bump the savegame version, as otherwise older
clients can still load the game, but will reset the field you
have removed .. that might be unintentially.
We won't be able to make it fully self-descriptive (looking at you
MAP-chunks), but anything else can. With this framework, we can
add headers for each chunk explaining how each chunk looks like
in detail.
They also will all be tables, making it a lot easier to read in
external tooling, and opening the way to consider a database
(like SQLite) to use as savegame format.
Lastly, with the headers in the savegame, you can freely add
fields without needing a savegame version bump; older versions
of OpenTTD will simply ignore the new field. This also means
we can remove all the SLE_CONDNULL, as they are irrelevant.
The next few commits will start using this framework.
We often ask people for their openttd.cfg, which now includes their
passwords, usernames, etc. It is easy for people to overlook this,
unwillingly sharing information they shouldn't.
By splitting this information over either private.cfg or secrets.cfg,
we make it more obvious they shouldn't be sharing those files, and
hint to what is inside them.
Instead of creating the object on heap and use a pointer, create
the object on stack and use a guaranteed-not-null pointer.
The size of IniFile doesn't warrent the forcing to heap.
Additionally, use a subclass instead of a function to do some
initial bookkeeping on an IniFile meant to read a configuration.
Unless invoked with -w, --warning ("print a warning for any untranslated strings") or -t, --todo ("replace any untranslated strings with '<TODO>'").
Eints normally fixes the warnings after a Pull Request, so it is not really useful information for the developer to see as a warning.
