https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionx-mpq-tools produces an unpacked MPQ
with all the graphics converted to CLX and the unused files removed.
This is primarily useful on RAM-constrained platforms, such as PS2,
because it eliminates the MPQ overhead.
Adds a build option to load from such unpacked directories instead of the MPQ.
These directories are searched for in the same locations
where the MPQs would be searched for otherwise.
Example directory layout:
* /usr/local/share/diasurgical/devilutionx/diabdat/ -- unpacked and converted diabdat.mpq
* /usr/local/share/diasurgical/devilutionx/hellfire/ -- unpacked and converted hellfire MPQs (all of them merged into 1 directory)
* /usr/local/share/diasurgical/devilutionx/fonts/ -- unpacked fonts.mpq
* /usr/local/share/diasurgical/devilutionx/pl/ -- unpacked pl.mpq
These directory structure is produced by calling `unpack_and_minify_mpq`
The format is almost identical to CL2, except it uses the frame header
to store frame width and height instead of 5 32-line offsets.
This means we always have access to frame dimensions, so we can use it
as an on-disk format for our graphics as well.
Additionally, we may be able to optimize the rendering even more
in the future now that we have guaranteed knowledge of frame dimensions.
Diablo and Hellfire have different palettes in `ui_art\black.pcx`.
We now ship our own tiny `black.pcx` that takes priority over the
other ones. This `black.pcx` had the Diablo palette which resulted in an
incorrect palette in the Settings screen.
Split our own `black.pcx` file into `black_diablo.pcx` and
`black_hellfire.pcx` and load the correct one depending on the mode.
* Add MakeRectangle helper to convert from SDL_Rect
* Add Rectangle::inset method for shrinking a rectangle
Turns out some of the other use cases I though this could apply to were actually doing something based on a fixed region
* Simplify initialisation of settings menu rects
The backgrounds can be quite large, for example
the Hellfire title background is a 2.4 MiB PCX file.
Previously, we converted all background to SDL surfaces.
This required extra memory, e.g. the 2.4 MiB Hellfire
title background uses 4.6 MiB as an SDL surface.
Changes the background to render directly from PCX instead
to reduce the allocator pressure.
