To keep the TAS inputs synced to the game speed even through lag spikes and loading zones, deeper access is required.
First, the `TAS::UpdateThread` has to be executed exactly once per frame. This is done by connecting it to the service method the game calls to pass parameters to the GPU: `Service::VI::QueueBuffer`.
Second, the loading time of new subareas and/or kingdoms (SMO) can vary. To counteract that, the `CPU_BOOST_MODE` can be detected: In the `APM`-interface, the call to enabling/disabling the boost mode can be caught and forwarded to the TASing system, which can pause the script execution if neccessary and enabled in the settings.
During script playback/recording, the user has to see what happens currently. For that, a new label has been added to the bottom-left corner, always displaying the current state of the TASing system.
First of all, TASing requires a script to play back. The user can select the parent directory at `System -> Filesystem`, next to an option to pause TAS during loads: This requires a "hacky" setup deeper in the code and will be added in the last commit.
Also, Hotkeys are being introduced: CTRL+F5 for playback start/stop, CTRL+F6 for re-reading the script and CTRL+F7 for recording a new script.
The base playback system supports up to 8 controllers (specified by `PLAYER_NUMBER` in `tas_input.h`), which all change their inputs simulataneously when `TAS::UpdateThread` is called.
The recording system uses the controller debugger to read the state of the first controller and forwards that data to the TASing system for recording. Currently, this process sadly is not frame-perfect and pixel-accurate.

Some titles set an exit lock through HLE, which prompts an exit confirmation when stopping emulation if the system is locked.
This change allows bypassing this confirmation if the setting to confirm exits has been disabled by the user.
The log filter was being ignored on initialization due to the logging instance being initialized before the config instance, so the log filter was set to its default value.
This fixes that oversight, along with using descriptive exceptions instead of abort() calls.
If we don't set an explicit source and target language for the base
english translation, then we'll generate an incorrect number of
<numerusform> tags (which Transifex doesn't like).
Some system configurations may see visual regressions or lower performance using GPU decoding compared to CPU decoding. This setting provides the option for users to specify their decoding preference.

This simplifies the logging system.
This also fixes some lost messages on startup.
The simplification is simple. I removed unused functions and moved most things in the .h to the .cpp. I replaced the unnecessary linked list with its contents laid out as three member variables. Anything that went through the linked list now directly accesses the backends. Generic functions are replaced with those for each specific use case and there aren't many. This change increases coupling but we gain back more KISS and encapsulation.
With those changes it was easy to make it thread-safe. I just removed the mutex and turned a boolean atomic. I was planning to use this thread-safety in my next PR about stacktraces. It was actually async-signal-safety at first but I ended up using a different approach. Anyway getting rid of the linked list is important for that because have the list of backends constantly changing complicates things.
This commit renames the "Services" tab to "Network" and adds a combobox that allows the user to select the network interface that yuzu should use. This new setting is now used to get the local IP address in Network::GetHostIPv4Address. This prevents yuzu from selecting the wrong network interface and thus using the wrong IP address. The return type of Network::GetHostIPv4Adress has also been changed.
OpenGL and Vulkan images render in different coordinate systems. This allows us to specify the coordinate system of the screenshot within each renderer
Use VK_KHR_pipeline_executable_properties when enabled and available to
log statistics about the pipeline cache in a game.
For example, this is on Turing GPUs when generating a pipeline cache
from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate:
Average pipeline statistics
==========================================
Code size: 6433.167
Register count: 32.939
More advanced results could be presented, at the moment it's just an
average of all 3D and compute pipelines.
The screenshot directory path returned does not have a trailing directory separator character. This caused screenshots to be saved in the parent directory of the configured screenshot directory.
This fixes that behavior
This setting is best referred to as a speed limit, as it involves the limits of all timing based aspects of the emulator, not only framerate.
This allows us to differentiate it from the fps unlocker setting.
This change adds two new context menu items to remove either the OpenGL or the Vulkan shader caches individually, and the provides the option to remove all caches for the selected title.
This also changes the behavior of the open shader cache option. Now it creates the shader cache directory for the title if it does not yet exist.
GLASM is getting good enough that we can move it out of advanced
graphics settings. This removes the setting `use_assembly_shaders`,
opting for a enum class `shader_backend`. This comes with the benefits
that it is extensible for additional shader backends besides GLSL and
GLASM, and this will work better with a QComboBox.
Qt removes the related assembly shader setting from the Advanced
Graphics section and places it as a new QComboBox in the API Settings
group. This will replace the Vulkan device selector when OpenGL is
selected.
Additionally, mark all of the custom anisotropic filtering settings as
"WILL BREAK THINGS", as that is the case with a select few games.
Some titles crash if the FPS limit is disabled when launching. This change ensures that titles launch with the limit in-place to avoid issues.
In order to simplify the change, the UI toggle was removed as it will always be overridden at launch to be disabled.
The setting can still be toggled during gameplay with the hotkey, and indicated by the fps label in the status bar.
