Pull request for 2.6.x CSFML

[dogunbound]

This PR will be for getting all of the 2.6.x features into CSFML. Here is a test project that I have an open source to test the project with. Currently, I have font enabled and disabled by pressing the s key https://github.com/dogunbound/CSFML_2.6_sample

I hope we can hack this out. 2.6.x is pretty stable, so I think it would be good to begin working on this.

Basically, we need to slowly go through EVERY pull request and see if any change needs to be made and make those changes. If there aren't any changes needed for a specific pull request, mark it as complete.

Oh what a list! Thanks for putting this together, even though many fixes won't have a direct effect on CSFML's API.

Need to update the ci.yml to use the 2.6.x branch (and later 2.6.0 tag)

CSFML/.github/workflows/ci.yml

Line 28 in 39d7c47

ref: 2.5.1

[dogunbound]

Someone Might want to test the packets getter function added in this function 5b8acd2 . I haven't got the slightest idea as to how I would test it.

[shane-tran-whitmire]

@eXpl0it3r @ChrisThrasher

I managed to hack through the entire list for all of the obvious ones that don't need updates on CSFML's end. The rest of the unchecked issues / PRs are ones that I wasn't sure needed changes to CSFML's end, or one's that need changes to CSFML's end. If you could help me go through the rest of this list, that would be grand.

[ChrisThrasher]

To make sure I understand, you went through every PR after 2.5.1 and make checkboxes in this issue with indicating whether or not we have more work to do to implement a given PR in CSFML? Wow that's an incredible effort and I really appreciate it. This will make it so much easier to know what all is remaining to do on CSFML 2.6.0.

To be specific, I got the changelog.md change from this PR https://github.com/SFML/SFML/pull/2482/files?diff=unified&w=0 and parsed all of the numbers for matching pull requests.

[shane-tran-whitmire]

@ChrisThrasher I should also add, there are already a couple of additions in this pull request. I have font smoothing disabling (a feature I REALLY want on rust-sfml), and some networking feature already committed.

[ChrisThrasher]

Just a few simple formatting fixes to get started

[eXpl0it3r]

Re-triggered the job runs, now that the 2.6.0 tag actually exists.

[ChrisThrasher]

Can we move this list into a separate issue that we can incrementally tackle these changes over multiple PRs? That will make it easier for multiple people to work concurrently if need be. We can still merge the progress already made in this PR.

[ChrisThrasher]

See #187 for this same list but in a separate issue. Please do not use this particular PR for more work progress tracking.

[dogunbound]

Marked it as non-draft. You can merge it now.

[eXpl0it3r]

Thank you for getting this started! 🙂
