NEW gated (BT_STEAM) TU L4STEAMNET: ISteamNetworkingSockets with FakeIP --
pseudo-SOCKET handles (0x5EA0xxxx) behind the L4NET BTNet* seam; the engine
TCP byte stream rides reliable-NoNagle Steam messages re-assembled into
per-connection rings (nonblocking recv semantics preserved: empty ->
WSAEWOULDBLOCK, peer-closed -> 0); two FakeIP ports mirror the arcade
console/game channel convention; listen sockets + accept queues via the
global status-changed callback; graceful degrade to Winsock at every step.
Seam completions in L4NET.CPP: CheckSocket reports a pseudo-socket peer as
its FAKE ipv4:port (the lobby egg roster matches unchanged); OpenConnection
TCP_OPEN delegates FakeIP targets to BTSteamNet_Connect. WinMain installs
on BT_STEAM_NET=1 (lobby launch path / by hand). CMake: gated SDK include/
lib/dll-copy. Both pumps (SteamAPI_RunCallbacks + sockets RunCallbacks)
drive it -- the FakeIP result rides the GENERAL dispatch (first attempt with
only the sockets pump timed out).
Verified live (ON/ON build, Steam client running): SteamAPI_Init OK,
steam_appid.txt(480) auto-written, FakeIP allocated
(169.254.36.58, console 54464 / game 54465); without BT_STEAM_NET or
without Steam the game stays pure Winsock.
