The skip_frames flag was a non-configurable runtime flag. Since it is
not exposed to the user, there is no need for a (possible) runtime cost.
For testing purpose, we still want it to be configurable, so make it a
compilation flag.
We encounter some problems with SDL2_image on MSYS2 (Windows), so
implement our own XPM parsing which does not depend on SDL_image.
The input XPM is considered safe (it's in our source repo), so do not
check XPM format errors. This implies that read_xpm() is not safe to
call on any unsafe input.
Although less straightforward, use SDL_CreateRGBSurfaceFrom() instead of
SDL_CreateRGBSurfaceWithFormatFrom() because it is available with SDL
versions older than 2.0.5.
To control the device from the computer:
- retrieve mouse and keyboard SDL events;
- convert them to Android events;
- serialize them;
- send them on the same socket used by the video stream (but in the
opposite direction);
- deserialize the events on the Android side;
- inject them using the InputManager.
