To get the size of each device / partition on the system, the method 'GetDeviceSize()' in 'src/Core/Unix/CoreUnix.cpp' first opens
the device / partition using 'open()' function to get a File Descriptor, then retrieves its size using this File Descriptor.
Starting OS X 10.11 ("El Capitan"), a feature called "System Integrity Protection (SIP)" or less formally, "rootless mode" has been added.
This feature blocks access to certain critical aspects of the OS and Hardware by 3rd-Party programs.
Specifically, low-level access to the system disks, devices and partitions is forbidden ; namely functions like 'open()' for instance fail
with the error code : "EPERM = Operation Not Permitted".
Therefore, for system devices / partitions, 'GetDeviceSize()' fails because of the failure of the 'open()' function, and throws an exception,
which is then caught inside the method 'GetHostDevices()' in '/src/Core/Unix/FreeBSD/CoreFreeBSD.cpp' : this leads to the size of the
device / partition being set to '0'.
Therefore, in the constructor of 'DeviceSelectionDialog' in 'src/Main/Forms/DeviceSelectionDialog.cpp', when the size of a device is '0',
the whole device is skipped, leading to all of its partitions not being treated or shown, even though some of these partitions may have a size which is != 0.
This commit fixes the issue by :
1 - First, checking whether the device size is '0'. If it is the case, the code loops through all the devices partitions : if there is at least one partition
with a size != 0, the device is not skipped. Otherwise, it is.
2 - Then, if the size of the device is '0', the size of the device is not shown to avoid confusing the user.
Also, since the device is not usable, the 'OK' button is not active when the device is selected.
3 - Finally, if a partition's size is '0', it is not shown since it is not usable : we cannot open it.

Now, under Debian 10+ and Ubuntu 18.04+, we link against the GTK-3 version of wxWidgets (libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5).
Under Debian 9- and Ubuntu 16.04, we link against the GTK-2 version of wxWidgets (libwxgtk3.0-0v5) which is the
only one available.
Also, we now have 2 separate RPM scripts : 'build_cmake_rpm_gtk2.sh' which builds wxWidgets and links it against GTK-2,
then links VeraCrypt against 'gtk2' package (typically to be used under CentOS 6) and 'build_cmake_rpm_gtk3' which builds
wxWidgets and links it against GTK-3, then links VeraCrypt against 'gtk3' package (typically to be used under CentOS 7+).
The DEB script builds VeraCrypt and links it against wxWidgets that comes with the distribution.
The RPM script awaits for wxWidgets-3.0.4 source code which it builds then links VeraCrypt statically to it.
Both scripts create the corresponding package after the build.
Compiling with -mxxx defines the corresponding macro of the intrinsics.
For example, -mssse3 defines __SSSE3__ macro to 1.
In GCC versions < 4.9, it is not possible to use and call x86 intrinsics only at runtime without
compiling the entire file with the -mxxx option.
For example, if we want to call SSSE3 intrinsics without compiling with -mssse3, the macro __SSSE3__ is not defined.
Therefore, when including <tmmintrin.h>, this results in "error "SSSE3 instruction set not enabled"" because of :
#ifndef __SSSE3__
# error "SSSE3 instruction set not enabled"
Since GCC 4.9, this has been fixed and it is possible to call x86 intrinsics from select functions in a file
that are tagged with the corresponding target attribute without having to compile the entire file with the -mxxx option.
This can be seen in <tmmintrin.h> which in recent versions (>= 4.9) contains :
#ifndef __SSSE3__
#pragma GCC push_options
#pragma GCC target("ssse3")
#define __DISABLE_SSSE3__
Since SSSE3 is only used under Windows for ChaCha256, this can be fixed by preceding '#include <tmmintrin.h>' with
#if defined (_MSC_VER) && !defined (TC_WINDOWS_BOOT).
See https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/changes.html
in order for 'export TC_VERSION := $(shell grep VERSION_STRING ../Common/Tcdefs.h | head -n 1 | cut -d'"' -f 2)'
in 'src/Main/Main.make' to actually return the version rather than '-CustomEFI'.
