This adds support for two serialization formats for complex data types:
- Protobuf for complex objects with variable length internals that need forward and backward wire compatibility (lower speed, more flexible)
- Raw struct (ByteBuffer-style) for fixed-length objects (higher speed, less flexible)
Deserialization can be done either by creating a new object (for immutable objects) or overwriting the contents of an existing object (for mutable objects).
Implementing classes should provide inner classes that implement the Protobuf or Struct interface (in Java) or specialize the wpi::Protobuf or wpi::Struct struct (in C++). It is possible for classes to implement both. If the class itself does not implement serialization, it's possible for third parties/users to provide an implementation instead.
Uses the Google protobuf implementation for C++ and the QuickBuffers alternative protobuf implementation for Java.
fmtlib uses consteval format string processing, which makes it more
efficient than std::snprintf().
snprintf()s in libuv, mpack, processstarter, and wpigui were left alone.
processstarter uses stdlib only, and wpigui only depends on imgui.
fmt::format_to_n() is analogous to std::format_to_n()
(https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/format/format_to_n)
wpi::format_to_n_c_str() is a wrapper which adds the trailing NUL.
Limiting with vsync is apparently unreliable on a number of systems;
this resulted in high CPU/GPU usage.
Also add current actual frame rate to about dialog of GUI tools.
This does the same thing as right clicking, but provides a visual indicator.
The icon disappears if the window is too small or docked (right click keeps working).
If UpdateClients() was called in the same update batch as an entry
removal, it could crash in GetEntry() due to a null entry caused by
deletion before a removal erase pass was made.
Since m_windows is sorted using the ascii, when "Plot <10>" is reached it will be before "Plot <2>" in `m_windows` which makes it so it will not add a new plot after the id 10 is reached. This also fixes a potential issue of someone manually changing an id in the file, which would break adding a new plot in some circumstances.
- In both C++ and Java, add listener functions to Instance class (same as NT3 provided)
- Add WaitForListenerQueue functions (same as NT3 provided)
- Move Java non-poller implementation to Instance (previously only handled single instance)
- Change C++ listeners to take non-const references for subscribers etc to help avoid footguns from use of temporary objects (also add doc comment)
- Fix Preferences making .type persistent
