This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

Display a warning when some images are missing, instead of crashing.
Also, don't keep old images around when loading a new set, and make use
of get_piece_graphic() more often.
Now when selecting a chess set in Games Settings, the names of the sets
are capitalized which looks much neater.
The default set 'stelar7' has been renamed to 'Classic' to reflect its
default vanilla design, as opposed to more stylized sets.
This commit also updates any code references to this set.
The immutability of the string is not relevant here, since the string
we're given was allocated in the IPC serialization layer and will be
destroyed shortly afterwards. Additionally, noone relies on
DeprecatedString-specific functionality. This will make it easier to
convert the IPC layer itself to String later on.
Previously, the engine would attempt to make a move if the engine was
changed after the game had ended.
This change also allows the player to always flip the board when the
game is finished, instead of only being able to flip the board on
their turn.
The pattern to construct `Application` was to use the `try_create`
method from the `C_OBJECT` macro. While being safe from an OOM
perspective, this method doesn't propagate errors from the constructor.
This patch make `Application` use the `C_OBJECT_ABSTRACT` and manually
define a `create` method that can bubble up errors from the
construction stage.
This commit also removes the ability to use `argc` and `argv` to
create an `Application`, only `Main`'s `Arguments` can be used.
From a user point of view, the patch renames `try_create` => `create`,
hence the huge number of modified files.
A new engine process is now started immediately, rather than waiting
until a move needs to be made.
This means that if the engine is playing as black, it can start up
while the human player is making a move. This is noticable with
stockfish, which can be slow to start up.
Previously, Frames could set both these properties along with a
thickness to confusing effect: Most shapes of the same shadowing only
differentiated at a thickness >= 2, and some not at all. This led
to a lot of creative but ultimately superfluous choices in the code.
Instead let's streamline our options, automate thickness, and get
the right look without so much guesswork.
Plain shadowing has been consolidated into a single Plain style,
and 0 thickness can be had by setting style to NoFrame.
A dialog is now displayed when an engine move results in a checkmate
or a draw. In the case of threefold repetition or the fifty move rule,
the engine will always accept a draw. A human player is asked if they
would like to accept a draw.
The GUI now tracks when it becomes disconnected from ChessEngine.
If not currently waiting for a move from ChessEngine, it will
automatically reconnect on the next engine move. If a disconnection
occurs while waiting for a move, the player is asked whether they
want to try again or not.
Similar to POSIX read, the basic read and write functions of AK::Stream
do not have a lower limit of how much data they read or write (apart
from "none at all").
Rename the functions to "read some [data]" and "write some [data]" (with
"data" being omitted, since everything here is reading and writing data)
to make them sufficiently distinct from the functions that ensure to
use the entire buffer (which should be the go-to function for most
usages).
No functional changes, just a lot of new FIXMEs.
Draw pieces around 80% of the size of a square, instead of 100%, so that
there is a nice gap around them. This feels more comfy, and makes it
actually possible to read the coordinates while a piece is on their
square.
