This method doesn't require port-forwarding to be used, and works for
most common NAT routers in home setups. But, for sure it doesn't work
for all setups, and not everyone will be able to use this.

This removes the need to know a server IP to join it. Invite codes
are small (~7 characters) indentifiers for servers, which can be
exchanged with other players to join the servers.

Normally TCPConnecter will do a DNS resolving of the connection_string
and connect to it. But for SERVER_ADDRESS_INVITE_CODE this is different:
the Game Coordinator does the "resolving".
This means we need to allow TCPConnecter to not setup a connection
and allow it to be told when a connection has been setup by an external
(to TCPConnecter) part of the code. We do this by telling the (active)
socket for the connection.
This means the rest of the code doesn't need to know the TCPConnecter
is not doing a simple resolve+connect. The rest of the code only
cares the connection is established; not how it was established.

This allows future extensions to have different ways of referencing
a server, instead of forcing to use IP:port.

It now follows very simple rules:
0 - Fatal, user should know about this
1 - Error, but we are recovering
2 - Warning, wrong but okay if you don't know
3 - Info, information you might care about
4 -
5 - Debug #1 - High level debug messages
6 - Debug #2 - Low level debug messages
7 - Trace information

Also changed some levels to 0, as a failing listen() is something
we should tell the user about. Hiding this information is a bit
evil.

Basically, we should join the resolve thread before we destruct
the object.

Hostnames like "content.openttd.org" resolve into multiple IPv4 and IPv6.
It is possible that either of the IPs is not working, either due to
a poorly configured OS (having IPv6 but no valid route), broken network
paths, or a service that is temporary unavailable.
Instead of trying the IPs one by one, waiting for a 3s timeout between
each, be a bit more like browsers, and stack attempts on top of each
other with slight delays. This is called Happy Eyebells.
Initially, try the first IPv6 address. If within 250ms there is no
connection yet, try the first IPv4 address. 250ms later, try the
second IPv6 address, etc, till all addresses are tried.
If any connection is created, abort all the other (pending) connections
and use the one that is created. If all fail 3s after the last connect(),
trigger a timeout for all.

We now resolve the connection_string to a NetworkAddress in a much
later state. This means there are fewer places constructing a NetworkAddress.
The main benefit of this is in later PRs that introduce different types
of NetworkAddresses. Storing this in things like NetworkGameList is
rather complex, especially as NetworkAddress has to be mutable at all
times.
Additionally, the NetworkAddress is a complex object to store simple
information: how to connect to this server.

We assume a conforming C++11 compiler environment that has a valid <thread>-header.
Failure to run a real thread is handled gracefully.

This switch has been a pain for years. Often disabling broke
compilation, as no developer compiles OpenTTD without, neither do
any of our official binaries.
Additionaly, it has grown so hugely in our codebase, that it
clearly shows that the current solution was a poor one. 350+
instances of "#ifdef ENABLE_NETWORK" were in the code, of which
only ~30 in the networking code itself. The rest were all around
the code to do the right thing, from GUI to NewGRF.
A more proper solution would be to stub all the functions, and
make sure the rest of the code can simply assume network is
available. This was also partially done, and most variables were
correct if networking was disabled. Despite that, often the #ifdefs
were still used.
With the recent removal of DOS, there is also no platform anymore
which we support where networking isn't working out-of-the-box.
All in all, it is time to remove the ENABLE_NETWORK switch. No
replacement is planned, but if you feel we really need this option,
we welcome any Pull Request which implements this in a way that
doesn't crawl through the code like this diff shows we used to.
