As a side effect, zlib and libpng are now git submodules,
based on their respective official git repositories.
This is necessary, because MinGW has a different ABI and
it cannot use the prebuilt binaries built by MSVC.
The submodules are also used for Windows, for several reasons:
* to allow 64-bit builds;
* to allow using newer MSVC, which doesn't like the prebuilt
libraries;
* to keep the libraries updated.
Some extra code is necessary to determine that the back faces
should not be drawn in red for transparent solids. It is expected
that the user will first ensure that the shell is watertight
and then set the opacity; back faces are still drawn if
the opacity is exactly 1.
The savefile format is changed backwards-compatibly by stashing
the alpha value in uppermost byte of 4-byte hex color value
in Surface and Triangle clauses. The existing files have 00
in the high byte, so RgbColor::FromPackedInt treats that
as "opaque".
This is done specifically targeting the case where an assembly
initially made on Windows is transported to an *nix machine.
On *nix, the paths will be already saved with /, and correctly
read on Windows. On Windows however / is not a first-class separator,
in particular it cannot be used in UNC-style paths \\?\ (which
are the only paths that work with Unicode).

On OS X F11 and F12 are system-global shortcuts. I could switch
them only on Apple platforms, but for consistency I decided not to.
Anyway, neither of those appeared in an official release.
This is required to avoid name conflicts with the Cocoa libraries
on OS X.
I renamed the `class SolveSpace` to `class SolveSpaceUI`, because
that's what it does, and because otherwise the namespace would
have to be called something else than `namespace SolveSpace`.
This will allow solvespace to run on pre-OpenGL 3.0 implementations,
such as VirtualBox (and possibly others).
However, VirtualBox's handling of framebuffer objects is buggy;
it tries to draw over our X window and fails to do either.
I hate OpenGL.
Apparently pbuffers are also a deprecated and unportable
way of offscreen rendering. They're not supported by
Chromium OpenGL implementation, which is what 3D-accelerated
VirtualBox uses.
This would also help a future OS X port.
Apparently GLX pixmaps are an antiquated and unsupported method
for offscreen rendering in OpenGL. Specifically this broke
software and VirtualBox accelerated rendering in Ubuntu trusty
and who knows which other systems.
This commit switches the rendering to use pbuffers instead,
while retaining all other logic. The pbuffers are fixed-size,
because reallocating pbuffers during a resize sometimes results
in segfaults in glXMakeCurrent despite apparently correct
API usage.
In principle, GTK3 is the way forward, and GTK2 is officially
deprecated, though still maintained. In practice however, GTK3
is often unbearably buggy; e.g. on my system, combo boxes
don't ever roll up in GTK3 windows. So I have added support
for both.
This required a few minor changes to the core, namely:
* GTK wants to know beforehand whether a menu item is a check
menu item or a regular one.
* GTK doesn't give us an easy way to execute something after
any event is processed, so an explicit idle timer is added.
This is a no-op on Win32.
* A few function signatures were const'ed, since GTK expects
immutable strings when converting to Glib::ustring.
fltkutil.cpp should be independent of FLTK so that it can be linked
into libslvs while neither requiring every user of the library to
reimplement these support routines nor requiring linking in FLTK.
However, don't use ssglLineWidth for UI drawing operations.
These only draw horizontal or vertical lines that don't need to
be antialiased, and thus don't require the workaround. In fact
the workaround would make them thicker than needed.
fltkmain accidentally used optind instead of optndx. optind is
defined as an extern int in glibc but not on BSD systems.
This also broke passing a filename on command line.
Writing to NULL is undefined behavior and it is legal for the
compiler to simply remove it; clang will do so. abort()
or __builtin_trap() would produce the desirable result.
abort() is used as it is more portable.
Since SolveSpace's config.h is not exported, we cannot depend
on HAVE_C99_INTEGER_TYPES or similar variables. It's simplest
to just define it from scratch in the same way as MSVC does.
