This makes most operations thread safe, especially so that they
can safely be used in the Kernel. This includes obtaining a strong
reference from a weak reference, which now requires an explicit
call to WeakPtr::strong_ref(). Another major change is that
Weakable::make_weak_ref() may require the explicit target type.
Previously we used reinterpret_cast in WeakPtr, assuming that it
can be properly converted. But WeakPtr does not necessarily have
the knowledge to be able to do this. Instead, we now ask the class
itself to deliver a WeakPtr to the type that we want.
Also, WeakLink is no longer specific to a target type. The reason
for this is that we want to be able to safely convert e.g. WeakPtr<T>
to WeakPtr<U>, and before this we just reinterpret_cast the internal
WeakLink<T> to WeakLink<U>, which is a bold assumption that it would
actually produce the correct code. Instead, WeakLink now operates
on just a raw pointer and we only make those constructors/operators
available if we can verify that it can be safely cast.
In order to guarantee thread safety, we now use the least significant
bit in the pointer for locking purposes. This also means that only
properly aligned pointers can be used.
This solves a problem where windows don't receive a WindowInputLeft
event when popup menus are opened. This prevented ComboBox being
closed when right clicking the application on the task bar.
This allows marking a MenuItem as a default action, e.g. in a
context menu for an action that reflects what e.g. a double click
would perform.
Also enhance the window menu to mark the close action as the
default, and when double clicked perform that action.
Fixes#1289
The menu manager will now send events directly to the current menu.
Previously if a menu was opened it would always be set as the current
menu. Now when opening a menu you can optionally say that you do not
want to have it as the current menu.
One scenerio when this happens is when a menu is popped up as part of a
preview, for example, when hovering over a menu item that is a submenu.
Sending the event to the current menu simplifies things and solves a few
inconsistencies in bevhaviour (such as hovering over a submenu, but key
events not being sent to the submenu).
It didn't feel right to have a "DHCPClient" in a "Servers" directory.
Rename this to Services to better reflect the type of programs we'll
be putting in there.
