Introducing profiles

After a lot of discussion in the dev channels, I've added a new concept in Wolf: profiles. This will be particularly useful for wolf-ui which will be the new entrypoint when starting a Moonlight streaming session and will allow to:

• easily pick up a profile and start an app (this will allow you to carry over savegames and state between different Moonlight clients)
• easily join another streaming session for co-op playing.

The format in config.toml is the following

[[profiles]]
id = 'moonlight-profile-id'

    [[profiles.apps]]
    title = 'Wolf UI'

        [profiles.apps.runner]
        run_cmd = '/home/ale/repos/wolf-ui/src/wolf-ui'
        type = 'process'

    [[profiles.apps]]
    start_audio_server = false
    start_virtual_compositor = false
    title = 'Test ball'

        [profiles.apps.audio]
        source = 'audiotestsrc wave=ticks is-live=true'

        [profiles.apps.runner]
        run_cmd = "sh -c \"while :; do echo 'running...'; sleep 10; done\""
        type = 'process'

        [profiles.apps.video]
        source = '''videotestsrc pattern=ball flip=true is-live=true !
                           video/x-raw, framerate={fps}/1''' 

[[profiles]]
id = 'user'
name = 'User'
apps = []

We'll automatically migrate from the current config.toml by:

• Adding the hardcoded moonlight-profile-id which will represent the apps that are going to be shown in the Moonlight UI
• Adding a default user profile and copying over all the previously defined apps in here.

APIs

The currently available /api/v1/apps will now control the apps that will be shown in the Moonlight UI. There are 3 new endpoints to control profiles:

• GET /api/v1/profiles returns a list of all defined profiles (most notably it wouldn't return the special "moonlight" profile, you'll have to use /api/v1/apps to interact with that one)
• POST /api/v1/profiles/add takes a full profile object
• POST /api/v1/profiles/remove takes just an id: the ID of the profile to be deleted

Hitting any of the apps or profiles endpoints will also automatically save the changes into the config.toml (if any).

I've yet to define how to associate streaming sessions with profiles and how that will play with CO-OP sessions, I'll start working on that now.

@Skerga, @salty2011 please let me know what you guys think and what else you would like to see added!

Introducing Lobbies

On top of profiles we are also introducing Lobbies, here are the highlights:

Key Features

• Easy Co-op Session Joining:

  • Users can now seamlessly join cooperative game sessions from different Moonlight clients

• Session Continuity Across Devices:

  • Start a gaming session on one device and continue it on another one without losing progress.

• Watch Parties:

  • This will also make possible "watch parties" where users can observe game sessions without interacting. This is perfect for spectators who want to follow along without affecting the gameplay.
