Now, hotlist_init can be called without a corewindow. This allows the
hotlist backend to be up and running, before any hostlist manager is
opened. Calling hotlist_manager_init attaches the hotlist to a corewindow.
The treeview widget can be repeatedly finialised and initialised. The
content ready flag was not being cleard on initialisation so content
was being used in an bad state. For example this caused an assert when
content_redraw() was called on non-ready resource handles.
The netsurf core no longer uses any locale dependant operations
excepting the mall number or cases where such operations are
explicitly wanted.
the netsurf_init now calls setlocale with the empty string and lets
the c library setup as per its specific implementation.
any core functionality that specificaly processes ascii text must use
the utils/ascii.h header to do so.
The no_delete flag is mislabelled as persistent. In fact it is simply
never altered from its default value. It is serialised and its state
kept on disc but otherwise is completely vestigial.
Previously the expected behaviour for front ends using the correct
API for hotlist, global history, cookie manager, and ssl cert
viewer was that the front end would initialise the treeview module
on startup and finalise it on application exit.
However, this meant that the front ends had to include the core
treeview header, which they didn't otherwise need.
Since the tree module provided access to the new treeview utilities
through the old tree API, and was used by front ends with no changes
for the new treeview API, the tree layer refcounted initialisations
of treeview-based widgets, and only called the underlying treeview
init/fini functions when needed.
This change moves that refcounting into the treeview module. Now
the hotlist, global history, cookie manager, and ssl cert viewer
widgets call call treeview init/fini as part of their own
initialisation and finalisation. This means that front ends
using the correct APIs for treeview-based widgets don't need to
know anything about the underlying treeview, and the tree module
compatibility layer has had its treeview refcounting removed.
Finally, the treeview_init function took a font size parameter.
Now it does not and lit gets font size from config. We probably
want to add a new `treeview_font_size` option to nsoptions, and
have differnent defaults on different platforms. 12pt on RISC OS,
and 11pt elsewhere, most likely.
This removes the toskip parameter, which was only used by the RISC OS
front end. The toskip param was used to skip 8 characters which did
not need to be escaped from the start of the URL. The RISC OS front
end now orders the steps of its URL construction to avoid the need
for this.
