I don't always want to abort() on an impossible() when debug_fuzzing,
especially if the first impossible() encountered isn't related to the
bug I'm in the midst of trying to hunt down.
I often have breakpoints on impossible() anyway, and I'd like a simple
way to avoid the panic() call during a lengthy debug session.
Make iflags.debug_fuzzer an xint8 instead of a boolean.
Call abort() only if iflags.debug_fuzzer is set to 1.
That allows setting iflags.debug_fuzzer to 2 in order to bypass the
abort call, and make use of other breakpoints that have been set
to narrow down a particular issue.
The g? structs had a mix of variables that were written to
the savefile, and those that were not.
For better clarity and to distinguish those that end up in
the savefile, relocate some g? variables that get written
directly to the savefile into different structs.
This updates EDITLEVEL, although technically it probably
didn't need to, since savefile contents are not changing.

Related note:
There are some pointer variables that are heads of chains that were not
moved from 'g?' to 'sv?', because they are not actually written to the
savefile directly, but the objects/monst/trap/lightsource/timer in the
chains they point to are. That can be changed, if desired.
Examples: gi.invent, gm.migrating_objs, gb.billobjs, gm.migrating_mons,

If the 'sanity_check' option triggers a warning, don't show the
"Program in disorder! (Save and restore might fix this.)" and
"Report these messages to <devteam>." messages and also don't run
the crash report submission.
Doesn't affect the fuzzer because it escalates impossible() to
panic() before reaching those extra messages.
DUMPLOG requests the DUMPLOG feature as it does now
DUMPLOG_CORE requests the internal buffering only (used for CRASHREPORT)

lost. There's nothing magic about MD4; other ports can use
anything that prodcues a long apparently random string we can
match against.

pline() already skips sprintf/vsnprintf if the format doesn't contain
any percent signs. Do the same if the entire format is "%s".
Also, if ESC is used to suppress messages for the rest of the current
move, the text for any impossible warnings issued during that time
would be suppressed too so not be seen.
I happened to notice when looking at a ttyrec that farlooking
with automatic description would blink the cursor on hero for
one frame, and then back on the farlooked map location.
sound_verbal(char *text, int32_t gender, int32_t tone, int32_t vol,
int32_t moreinfo);
-- NetHack will call this function when it wants to pass text of
spoken language by a character or creature within the game.
-- text is a transcript of what has been spoken.
-- gender indicates MALE or FEMALE sounding voice.
-- tone indicates the tone of the voice.
-- vol is the volume (1% - 100%) for the sound.
-- moreinfo is used to provide additional information to the soundlib.
-- there may be some accessibility uses for this function.
It may be useful for accessibility purposes too.
A preliminary implementation has been attempted for macsound to test
the interface on macOS. No tinkering of the voices has been done.
Use of the test implementation requires the following at build time with make.
WANT_SPEECH=1
That needs to be included on the make command line to enable the test code,
otherwise just the interface update is compiled in.
I don't know for certain when AVSpeechSynthesizer went into macOS, but older versions
likely don't support it, and would just leave off the WANT_SPEECH=1.
If built with WANT_SPEECH=1, the 'voices' NetHack option needs to be enabled.
It was a bit strange, when I first started up the test, to hear Asidonhopo,
the shopkeeper, talking to me as I entered his shop and interacted with him.
Another one from entrez: falling asleep tried to make the hero Deaf,
but was adding a negative value to the timeout. A negative value
of bigger magnitude that the current timeout could produce weird
values when making that be negative and then stuffing it into an
unsigned field.
This applies a fix to sleep-causes-deafness bug but also disables
that, at least for the time being since nobody seemed to notice that
it wasn't working. The fix might be noticeable so needs testing.
This also adjusts You_hear() so that if Deaf and sleeping are both
active, it will still yield "You dream that your hear ..." instead
having Deaf override that.
The consolidation of global variables from scattered source
files into decl.c and declared in decl.h was begun in 3.7.0.
Their placement in common files was done for centralized
initialization and potential re-initialization during a
"play again" scenario.
It wasn't really necessary for all of them to be housed in a
single huge structure to meet the "play again" requirement,
and the single huge structure has been a little unwieldy when
it comes to maintenance.
Following this commit, instead of one single extremely large structure
named 'g' to house all of the relocated global variables, they
are distributed into several ga through gz.
To make things easy for the developer, each variable is placed
into the struct corresponding to the starting letter of the variable.
That way, no lookup is required in order to know which struct houses
a particular variable, it is a simple match to the starting letter
for all the centralized global variables.
A global variable named 'amulets', would be found in ga.
ga.amulets
^ ^
A global varable named 'move', would be found in gm.
gm.moves
^ ^
A global variable named 'val_for_n_or_more' would be found in gv.
gv.val_for_n_or_more
^ ^
A global variable named 'youmonst' would be found in gy.
gy.youmonst
^ ^
Instead of using index() macro defined to strchr, use C99 strchr.
Instead of using rindex() macro defined to strrchr, use C99 strrchr.
If you want to try building on a platform that doesn't offer those
two functions, these are available:
define NOT_C99 /* to make some non-C99 code available */
define NEED_INDEX /* to define a macro for index() */
define NEED_RINDX /* to define a macro for rindex() */
If NH_DEVEL_STATUS was set to NH_STATUS_RELEASED or NetHack was compiled
without DEBUG defined, the 'vlen' variable in a couple pline.c functions
wasn't used. This could trigger compiler warnings.

The Copyright notice is placed by tty internal routines writing onto
the BASE_WINDOW fairly early in the startup sequence.
The prompt to "Destroy old game? [yn] (n)" is using the in-game
routine to write to the message window at the top of the screen and
prompt there, just like in-game prompts and messages.
If the player answered 'y' to that, the prompt for
"Shall I pick character's race, role, gender and alignment..."
appeared immediately after. That one, however, is written using
the BASE_WINDOW routines in tty, like the copyright notice.
This change does the following:
It moves the copyright lines down a little bit leaving room for the
"Destroy.." prompts.
It places the "Shall I pick characters's..." prompt further down the
screen by default, leaving some room for about 3 raw_print startup
messages after the copyright notice, just in case there are any.
The "Shall I pick character's..." prompt will still appear immediately
if there is a prompt such as "Destroy old game?..."
There were a couple of other issues around raw_print startup messages
too. Those are delivered using a raw_print mechanism to ensure they
are written even if the window-port is not fully operational. However,
they were only on the screen for the blink of an eye. This call
sequence in restore.c made them disappear almost immediately:
docrt() -> cls()
Put in a mechanism to detect the presence of raw_print messages
from the early startup, and if there were some, wait for a
keypress before obliterating the unread notifications.
The gamelog structure's type/flags field is 'long' but the
corresponding livelog event type field and the argument passed to
gamelog's logging were 'unsigned'. They take the same values and
those values mean the same things so change them all to long.
The actual livelog logging assumed that time_t is a long number of
seconds, and was also using a boolean as an array index. Perform
proper type conversions.
sysconf parsing used 'int' to hold strtol() value; change to long.
Also it was using raw_printf() instead of config_error_add() to
complain about any problems. Clearly the livelog patch was not
updated to the current code base before being incorporated.
mdlib.c was avoiding alloc() and dupstr() because mdlib.o gets linked
with makedefs and makedefs used to need to avoid those. But makedefs
doesn't avoid those anymore, so mdlib.c doesn't need to either.
Replace a couple of other strdup() calls in other files too.
Log game events, such as entering a new dungeon level, breaking
a conduct, or killing a unique monster, in a new "Major events"
chronicle. The entries record the turn when the event happened.
The log can be viewed with #chronicle -command, and the entries
also show up in the end-of-game dump, if that is available.
This feature is on by default, but can be disabled by
defining NO_CHRONICLE compile-time option.
This also contains "live logging", writing the events as they
happen into a single livelog-file. This is mostly useful for
public servers. The livelog is off by default, and must be
compiled in with LIVELOG, and then turned on in sysconf.
Mostly this a version of livelogging from the Hardfought server,
with some changes.
Indent all labels one space. Having uniform placement makes spotting
them much easier. (Having no indent at all would impact the change
bars of 'git diff'. Those display the last unindented line--which
doesn't start with punctuation--occuring before each band of changes,
so usually the name of the function being changed now that we no
longer have unindented K&R-style function argument declarations.)
While in there, shorten or split various wide lines and replace a few
tabs with spaces.
I was baffled about why moving the cursor across a fire elemental
kept putting up --More-- until I remembered that I once used
MSGTYPE=stop "[Ff]ire"
to test Qt's handling for that. Turns out that I left it in my
config file. autodescribe feedback should not be honoring that;
honoring MSGTYPE=norepeat is not as clear-cut but this disables
it too.
User sounds were also kept enabled during autodescribe but I have
no way to test them. Like norepeat, disabling just falls into
place.
The pline.c change is unrelated. It just eliminates a wide line
(from adding 'g.') in the source by using a shorter variable name.
fixes#361
Also, experminental introduction of vt_sounddata to enable tty to pass
a sound file index to the terminal side of things where perhaps someone
can add code to something like hterm to take the information relayed by
NetHack to trigger user_sounds locally even if playing on a server.
Compile time option TTY_SOUND_ESCCODES required to build that support in.
It should be independent of TTY_TILE_ESCCODES.
Fix 'Bugs 4, 5, and 6' which all use a similar fix but would have
conflicts over '#define BIGBUFSZ' if committed separately.
Format ("short explanation %s", string_argument), where the
explanation always has modest length but the string is potentially
up to 4*BUFSZ in length, into a 5*BUFSZ buffer. Then truncate the
result to at most BUFSZ-1 characters so that it can be safely passed
to interface-specific putstr() or raw_print().
Applies to pline(), raw_printf(), and config_error_add(). Also done
for impossible() although there's no evidence that its buffer could
be overflowed in a controlled manner.
