Previously a download lived independently of the client connection it came
from. This was the source of several undesirable behaviours, including the
potential for clients to influence downloads they didn't start, and
downloads living longer than their associated client connections. Now we
attach downloads to client connections, which means they're cleaned up
automatically when the client goes away, and there's significantly less
risk of clients interfering with each other.
To conserve memory, we now use byte storage for terminal lines until we
encounter a non-ASCII codepoint. At that point, we transparently switch
to UTF-32 storage for that one line.
This is not simply an inversion of the Slightly Smiling Face emoji.
The facial features were flipped vertically but the underlying "face"
was kept the same, because for both emojis the top is lighter than the
bottom.
This fixes an issue where continuously posting new events to the queue
would keep the event loop saturated, causing it to ignore notifiers.
Since notifiers are part of the big select(), we always have to call
wait_for_events() even if there are pending events. We're already smart
enough to select() without a timeout if we already have pending events.
In the case of a syntax error the shell parser prints an error message
to stderr and returns an empty Vector<Command> - in that case we
shouldn't try to determine whether or not we can continue parsing but
abort immediately - is_complete() expects that *something* was parsed
successfully.
Fixes#2251.
Instead of relying on the GUI code to handle UTF-8, we now process
and parse the incoming data into 32-bit codepoints ourselves.
This means that you can now show emojis in the terminal and they will
only take up one character cell each. :^)
You can now mark String message parameters with the [UTF8] attribute.
This will cause the generated decoder to perform UTF-8 validation and
reject the message if the given parameter is not a valid UTF-8 string.
This frees up the receiving side from having to do this validation at
a higher level.
This was a holdover from the old times when each Process had a special
main thread with TID 0. Using it was a total crapshoot since it would
just return whichever thread was first on the process's thread list.
Now that I've removed all uses of it, we don't need it anymore. :^)
Instead of falling back to the suspicious "any_thread()" mechanism,
just fail with ESRCH if you try to kill() a PID that doesn't have a
corresponding TID.
