Merge lp:~widelands-dev/widelands/dedicated_out_of_main into lp:widelands

[SirVer]

Remove --dedicated commandline option and associated code.

Rational: --dedicated allowed people who could host a game to keep a server running that people who could not host could control to play games. This is a great feature, but it came at a price: dedicated required a lot of if () else () in many places, i.e. it was very widespread in the code. One of the most pervasive problems was that dedicated could not spin up a Graphic() instance, therfore g_gr == nullptr and a lot of code did not check for that - since g_gr is never null if the game is run normally. Therefore it was easily broken - I am not sure if it worked in b18, but it has not worked for at least a year.
Another problem was that dedicated is essentially a host instance, i.e. it has to run the full game logic for each game that is played. So it is prohibitively expensive to run it (for example) on the server. So we would have needed a donator to even provide another instance that could be used.

We also have a plan of fixing the hosting problem in a principled way: through the proxy server that is spawned by the metaserver that will forward packets between players. Unfortunately, this is not implemented yet and it will not be for b19.

Requires https://code.launchpad.net/~widelands-dev/widelands/different_replay_names/+merge/285265 to be merged first.

Spend an hour today trying to fix --dedicated. Then decided it was too difficult after I could not follow the various state machines anymore and after it kept crashing. Now I ripped it out. This closes a few bugs related to --dedicated and simplifies the code, but of course the dedicated feature is gone for good.

[GunChleoc (gunchleoc)]

Please have a look at my code review commit - there is a NOCOM question in there.

Also pinging Tino, because some WIN32 includes have been removed.

review: Approve

[SirVer (sirver)]

// NOCOM why was this deleted? if (!complete) throw wexception("Out of memory");

because it is rather pointless. We allocate memory everywhere and never check for OOM errors. One of the reasons is that if the OS does not have any more memory to give you, it will not give you any memory for creating the error message string or the exception. This will kill your process rather quickly anyways.

Tino, if that compiles for you, could you merge?

[Tino (tino79)]

Compiles, does work fine. No regressionson windows found.
