For file opening there's no longer an unatomic pair of exists() +
read(), but since Path::read() now returns an Optional, it means we can
reliably distinguish between empty files and failures.
While at it, also added TODOs for removal of the StringStl.h header
that's needed in various places for compatibility with APIs still using
STL strings.
It was a clever harmless trick. Well, it was way more harmless than it
was clever, but even then it caused UBSan to complain. And that's Not A
Good Thing for various reasons, so let's just comply.
The main bad effect of this change is a *slightly* larger list of
exported symbols but until we actually get rid of the major bloats like
<iostream>, <string> and the like, this is not going to have any
measurable impact.
It should be input first, output second, like with all other APIs. I
remember I was trying something else here, but that didn't really make
sense in the end. Also took that opportunity to get rid of one
std::string.
The original signature is a deprecated alias to the new one and will be
removed in a future release.
There will be Flag::FlipY for images at some point, enabled by default
for compatibility with existing GL code, and so it makes sense to start
discouraging setFlags() as early as possible to avoid people resetting
the default by accident.
Also update the imageconverter, sceneconverter and shaderconverter utils
to use these instead of setFlags().
