Move all the inline Javascript event handlers from vnc.html to
include/ui.js except the load handler which is moved to
include/start.js). This is on the path towards a Chrome
extension/packaged app since inline Javascript is prohibited in that
situation.
Switch from using cookies to store setting to using localStorage (or
chrome.storage.sync if available in extension/app mode) for the
settings. Also refactor to make the initializing of the setting and
and loading of the UI to be more asynchronous.
Add routines to store/read settings in either localStorage or in
chrome.storage.sync (which is synchronized between browsers for
extensions/apps).
Before using chrome.storage.sync the initSettings routine must to
called setup the intermediate cache which speeds up access and allows
multiple setting changes to be coallesced to avoid hitting storage
change frequency limits/quotas.
- enable sending and receiving of raw array buffers in addition to
strings.
- add a read poll interval and set it to 15ms by default to detect
and handle quickly when a message is pending.
- also, detect a disconnected state and add call registration for
disconnect events.
This change pulls websockify 6d9deda9c5.
Most note worthy changes:
- Pulls in web-socket-js 7677e7a954 which updates to IETF 6455 (from
Hixie)
- Binary support detection and use in include/websock.js
- Add ssl and unix target support
- Add multiple target support via config file/dir.
- Idle timeout exit

The current grep pattern matches also port numbers that match only
partially the given $PORT number; e.g., if $PORT is 6080, 60800 will
match as well.
While TCP listening sockets in the 60000-65535 range are rare, they
need to be handled as well. The problem is also present if the user
selects a shorter PORT value with the --listen command line argument.
By adding a space, the pattern is fixed.
Use a simpler method of enabling binary transfer over WebSockets. This
still presents the user of websock.js with a plain javascript array
for the receive queue data. However, if binary support is supported
and requested then the transfer will be raw frames instead of base64
encoded.
Lots of room for optimization here but for now correct is better than
fast.

This will keep copyrect rendering actions in order with tight and tightPNG
rendering actions (otherwise you can get visual image corruption when
they are mixed together).
Warning:
RAW, RRE and HEXTILE still use immediate render commands so there is
still the risk of out-of-order rendering if RAW, RRE, and HEXTILE are
mixed with tight and tightPNG. Copyrect will work with either because
the renderQ_push function will render copyrects immediately if they
are the only thing being pushed on the queue.
The imgQ code in RFB should be a generic rendering queue system in
Display.
The reason for the render queue in the first place is that images
loaded from raw data URI strings aren't immediately ready to display
so we have to wait for them to complete 'loading'. However, when data
URI images are mixed with other types of rendering actions then things
can get out of order. This is the reason for the rendering queue.
Currently this only keeps display actions for tight and tightPNG
related actions in order (because they use a mix of fills, raw pixel
data and data URI images).

The real fix is to QEMU so that this doesn't happen which was
submitted as a patch to the mailinglist right before this.
