In C++, globals initialization order accross translation units is not
defined. Accessing a global via a function ensures that it is initialized.
This will be needed for #7638, which will statically initialize change
handlers after the Options object has been initialized.
Untangles dependencies by splitting up `engine.{h,cpp}` into 3 files:
1. `primitive_render`
2. `ticks` -- only contains `GetAnimationFrame` for now.
3. `GetWidth2` renamed to `CalculateSpriteTileCenterX` and moved to `levels/dun_tile.hpp`.
We may want to migrate this to 1 file per monster but for now the
migration is as close to the hard-coded version as possible.
Sprites that are used by multiple monsters are only loaded from disk
once.
Fully migrates debug commands to Lua and organizes them into logical
groups.
The CLI `+` syntax now runs Lua, e.g.:
```bash
build/devilutionx '+dev.player.trn.plr("infra")'
```
Chat hotkeys run Lua code if they start with `/lua`, e.g.:
```ini
[NetMsg]
QuickMessage1=/lua message(dev.player.info())
```
1. `Events` global is replaced with `require('devilutionx.events')`.
2. Table is simplified and documented.
3. `On` removed from the event names as it was a bit redundant.
4. Functions are camelCase for consistency (e.g. `add` instead of
`Add`).
Example script:
```lua
local events = require("devilutionx.events")
local render = require("devilutionx.render")
local message = require("devilutionx.message")
local function greet()
message("Hello from " .. _VERSION)
print("Hello from ", _VERSION)
end
events.GameStart.add(greet)
local function drawGreet()
render.string("Hello from " .. _VERSION, 10, 40)
end
events.GameDrawComplete.add(drawGreet)
```
Implements a `require` function that supports built-in modules like so:
```lua
local log = require('devilutionx.log')
```
It falls back to reading from assets, so this loads `lua/user.lua`:
```lua
local user = require('lua.user')
```
The bytecode for the asset scripts is cached, in case we want to later
support multiple isolated environments.
There may be a simpler or better way to do this.
It's good enough for now until someone more knowledgeable
about Lua comes along.
Enabled only in Debug mode.
Runs Lua similar to the `lua` CLI.
Supports multiline input with Shift+Enter.
Missing features:
1. Scrollback.
2. Input history on up/down.
Open with backtick, close with Esc.
