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.

Converts the combat messages to NetGameMsgs in CombatMessages.{h,cpp}:
Die, Resurrect, SetResurrectRestoreValues, SetPlayerAllowedRespawn
(SendToClient, as before), Knockback, SetStunned, SetStunImmunity,
SetStatusImmunity, AddBuff, RemoveBuff, AddRunSpeedModifier,
RemoveRunSpeedModifier and DeactivateBubbleBuffFromServer, and the
received RequestDie, RequestSmashPlayer, RequestResurrect, Resurrect,
ActivateBubbleBuff and DeactivateBubbleBuff. Smash and UnSmash move
here from GameMessages.h (Smash's ghostCapacity is ghostOpacity, the
client's name) and gain a Deserialize.
The callers (DestroyableComponent, BuffComponent,
ControllablePhysicsComponent, QuickBuildComponent, RacingControl,
RailActivator and the scripts) build the structs. SendResurrect's
respawn timer moves to DestroyableComponent::Resurrect. The received
messages are registered in GameMessageHandler's map and their switch
cases are deleted, along with the unused HandleRequestDie overload and
the Send* functions nothing called (SendSmash, SendUnSmash, the run
speed modifiers, SendActivateBubbleBuffFromServer). Handler logic is
unchanged.
No wire change and no change in recipients. Verified byte for byte
against a frozen verbatim copy of the old functions over an input grid
(every optional field, bool patterns, empty and long strings), received
messages compared with the old handlers' read sequences and truncated
payloads rejected, hand computed golden bytes, round trips, and a
deliberate width mutation made the tests fail.
Known difference from the client, not changed here: DLU writes
SetStatusImmunity's nine flags in its own order; the client reads them
alphabetically (GameMessage::SetStatusImmunity::Serialize @ 00d8f140).
