Interrupting async processors may require to shutdown the connection to
wake up blocking calls.
Therefore, shutdown the connection first, then join the threads, then
close the connection.

In forward mode, the dummy byte must be written immediately after the
first accept(), otherwise the client will wait indefinitely, causing a
deadlock (or a timeout).
Regression introduced by 8c650e53cd.
On initial connection, scrcpy sent some device metadata:
- the device name (to be used as window title)
- the initial video size (before any frame or even SPS/PPS)
But it is better to provide the initial video size as part as the video
stream, so that it can be demuxed and exposed via AVCodecContext to
sinks.
This avoids to pass an explicit "initial frame size" for the screen, the
recorder and the v4l2 sink.
When audio is enabled, open a new socket to send the audio stream from
the device to the client.

On any error, all previously opened sockets must be closed.
Handle these errors in a single catch-block. Currently, there are only 2
sockets, but this will simplify even more with more sockets.
Note: this commit is better displayed with --ignore-space-change (-b).
For the initial connection between the device and the computer, an adb
tunnel is established (with "adb reverse" or "adb forward").
The device-side of the tunnel is a local socket having the hard-coded
name "scrcpy". This may cause issues when several scrcpy instances are
started in a few seconds for the same device, since they will try to
bind the same name.
To avoid conflicts, make the client generate a random UID, and append
this UID to the local socket name ("scrcpy_01234567").
If --no-control is enabled, then it is not necessary to create a second
communication socket between the client and the server.
This also facilitates the use of the server alone (without the client)
to receive only the raw video stream.
There are a lot of "magic numbers" that we really don't want to extract
as a constant.
Until now, many @SuppressWarnings annotations were added, but it makes
no sense to check for magic number if we silent the warnings everywhere.
After the recent refactorings, a "control event" is not necessarily an
"event" (it may be a "command"). Similarly, the unique "device event"
used to send the device clipboard content is more a "reponse" to the
request from the client than an "event".
Rename both to "message", and rename the message types to better
describe their intent.
The socket used the device-to-computer direction to stream the video and
the computer-to-device direction to send control events.
Some features, like copy-paste from device to computer, require to send
non-video data from the device to the computer.
To make them possible, use two sockets:
- one for streaming the video from the device to the client;
- one for control/events in both directions.
In "adb forward" mode, close the server socket as soon as the client is
connected.
Even if unlikely to be useful, it allows to run several instances of
scrcpy also in "adb forward" mode.
"adb reverse" currently does not work over tcpip (i.e. on a device
connected by "adb connect"):
<https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37066218>
To work around the problem, if the call to "adb reverse" fails, then
fallback to "adb forward", and reverse the client/server roles.
Keep the "adb reverse" mode as the default because it does not involve
connection retries: when using "adb forward", the client must try to
connect successively until the server listens.
Due to the tunnel, every connect() will succeed, so the client must
attempt to read() to detect a connection failure. For this purpose, when
using the "adb forward" mode, the server initially writes a dummy byte,
read by the client.
Fixes <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/issues/5>.
Replace screenrecord execution by manual screen encoding using the
MediaCodec API.
The "screenrecord" solution had several drawbacks:
- screenrecord output is buffered, so tiny frames may not be accessible
immediately;
- it did not output a frame until the surface changed, leading to a
black screen on start;
- it is limited to 3 minutes recording, so it needed to be restarted;
- screenrecord added black borders in the video when the requested
dimensions did not preserve aspect-ratio exactly (sometimes
unavoidable since video dimensions must be multiple of 8);
- rotation handling was hacky (killing the process and starting a new
one).
Handling the encoding manually allows to solve all these problems.
