* Massive reduction in heap space allocation, going from settings struct
264kb to 119Kb
* Use NAME_MAX_LENGTH for base paths/names, etc
* Use DIR_MAX_LENGTH for directory sizes
Due to an error in 631301b3f7, the
runtime display string was working well only when the label had
a length of 7. Even the English "Runtime:" was a bit truncated
as a space was supposed to be added after the :, but it was
even more noticeable in other languages.
assignments for strings longer than 2 chars
- Use strlcpy concatenation instead of strlcat
- Make sure that what remains of iteration of the '_len' variable
for manual char assignment
is done in a safer way so mistakes are less possible
usage of strlcpy (when position/offset of previous strlcpy/snprintf call
is known. strlcat implementation in libretro-common makes implicit strlen
call, using strlcpy avoids this
* Reduce a bunch of local char variables by use of said clever usage,
should save up on local stack size usage
(snprintf) Try to reduce or simplify snprintf calls, only tend to
use it for processing integers/numbers and avoid it for regular
string concatenation (NOTE: we try to be a bit safer about it to
address earlier cited criticism, although we don't consider concatenating
3 or 4 characters at the end to be insecure)
(msg_hash_to_str) Try to avoid duplicate calls to the same localized
string when we can just cache the results once instead locally
instead of this manual assignment, we can take advantage of the
string list in one of the instances to add the extensions to it.
Less string copying/concatenation that way later on as well.
* Append the extension to the string earlier before it's passed
to the leaf function that needs it
