Nothing in the server writes or reads a packet by hand any more, so the
helpers for doing so go:
- CBITSTREAM, CMSGHEADER, CINSTREAM, CINSTREAM_SKIP_HEADER, SEND_PACKET,
SEND_PACKET_BROADCAST and HEADER_SIZE leave dCommonVars.h;
- the free BitStreamUtils::WriteHeader (LUBitStream::WriteHeader writes the
same bytes) and the unused PacketUtils::SavePacket are deleted.
The last raw reads are replaced: WorldServer builds its input stream
directly, the master packet logs read the header with
LUBitStream::ReadHeader instead of peeking at packet->data[1] and [3], and
MessageInspector reads a sent game message's header with the new
NetGameMsg::ReadPacketHeader (the counterpart of WritePacket) instead of
memcmp/memcpy. packet->data[0] is still compared with RakNet's own
connection IDs.
The frozen oracles keep using the macros verbatim through the test-only
tests/dGameTests/LegacyPacketMacros.h; the HeaderSkip tests, which only
tested CINSTREAM_SKIP_HEADER, are removed.
docs/PacketArchitecture.md: "where we are" now describes the final state
and what still touches raw bytes (RakNet IDs, replica headers, behavior bit
streams), and a new section collects the known wire discrepancies found
during the conversion, with client addresses.

Every MASTER service packet is now an LUBitStream struct (docs/PacketArchitecture.md,
PR 14) and the master server's switch is a dispatch map (PacketDispatcher), as are the
master handlers of the world, chat and dashboard servers.
- dNet/MasterPackets.h: RequestZoneTransfer, RequestZoneTransferResponse, ServerInfo,
RequestSessionKey, SetSessionKey, SessionKeyResponse, NewSessionAlert, PlayerAdded /
PlayerRemoved, CreatePrivateZone, RequestPrivateZone (passwords still cut to 50
characters when read), WorldReady, WorldReadyInfo (WORLD_READY to the dashboard),
PrepZone, Shutdown, ShutdownResponse, WorldShutDown (SHUTDOWN_RESPONSE to the
dashboard), ShutdownUniverse, AffirmTransferRequest/Response, RequestServerList,
ServerListResponse, DashboardShutdown, ConfigReload, InstanceShutdown. The Send*
functions are gone; MasterPackets::SendToMaster(msg) and SendTo(sysAddr, msg) send a
struct.
- The dashboard and instance migration structs (PlayerAction, DataChanged, Dashboard
messages, MessageCapture, InstanceMigration) are LUBitStreams of the MASTER service now
and moved to dNet/master/, included by MasterPackets.h. Their payloads are unchanged;
master forwards them by re-serializing the struct instead of copying raw bytes.
- InstanceManager, ZoneInstanceManager, MigrationCoordinator, dServer (server info, zone
transfer response), auth (SET_SESSION_KEY), the world (session keys, player added and
removed, world ready, shutdown response, affirmations, prep zone, shutdown universe) and
the dashboard (server list, instance shutdown, config reload, announcements, player
actions, message capture) send and read structs.
- The login stamps are a `stamps` field of RequestZoneTransfer and
RequestZoneTransferResponse (read leniently as before: a message without them reads as
empty); master adds its stamps in the REQUEST_ZONE_TRANSFER handler and when it answers,
as it did.
- InstanceManager::GetInstanceBySysAddr takes a const address.
Verified: tests/dGameTests/dNetTests/Legacy/MasterPacketsLegacy.h is a verbatim copy of
the old writers and readers; MasterPacketsTests requires identical bytes for a grid of
inputs, checks the old readers read what the structs write, round trips and truncation,
hand written golden packets, that zone transfers without stamps still read, that the dashboard/migration structs write what
"header + Serialize" wrote, and that the dispatcher drops truncated packets. No wire
bytes changed.
