Previously, yuzu would try and guess which vsync mode to use given
different scenarios, but apparently we didn't always get it right. This
exposes the separate modes in a drop-down the user can select.
If a mode isn't available in Vulkan, it defaults to FIFO.
As an optional feature which can be enabled in the advanced graphics configuration, all pipelines that get built at the initial shader loading are stored in a VkPipelineCache object and are dumped to the disk.
These vendor specific pipeline cache files are located at `/shader/GAME_ID/vulkan_pipelines.bin`. This feature was mainly added because of an issue with the AMD driver (see yuzu-emu#8507) causing invalidation of the cache files the driver builds automatically.
[REUSE] is a specification that aims at making file copyright
information consistent, so that it can be both human and machine
readable. It basically requires that all files have a header containing
copyright and licensing information. When this isn't possible, like
when dealing with binary assets, generated files or embedded third-party
dependencies, it is permitted to insert copyright information in the
`.reuse/dep5` file.
Oh, and it also requires that all the licenses used in the project are
present in the `LICENSES` folder, that's why the diff is so huge.
This can be done automatically with `reuse download --all`.
The `reuse` tool also contains a handy subcommand that analyzes the
project and tells whether or not the project is (still) compliant,
`reuse lint`.
Following REUSE has a few advantages over the current approach:
- Copyright information is easy to access for users / downstream
- Files like `dist/license.md` do not need to exist anymore, as
`.reuse/dep5` is used instead
- `reuse lint` makes it easy to ensure that copyright information of
files like binary assets / images is always accurate and up to date
To add copyright information of files that didn't have it I looked up
who committed what and when, for each file. As yuzu contributors do not
have to sign a CLA or similar I couldn't assume that copyright ownership
was of the "yuzu Emulator Project", so I used the name and/or email of
the commit author instead.

- Avoids new GCC 12 warnings when Type is of form std::optional<T>
- Makes more sense this way, because ranged is not a property which would change over time
The latest git version of GCC has issues with my diamond inheritance
shenanigans. Since that's now two compilers that don't like it I thought
it'd be best to just axe all of it and just have the two templates like
before.
This rolls the features of BasicRangedSetting into BasicSetting, and
likewise RangedSetting into Setting. It also renames them from
BasicSetting and Setting to Setting and SwitchableSetting respectively.
Now longer name corresponds to more complex thing.
Adds an option `-c` or `--config` with one required argument that allows
the user to specify to where the config file is located. Useful for
scripts that run specific games with different preferences for settings.
Inlines implementation of exclusive instructions into JITted code,
improving performance of applications relying heavily on these
instructions.
We also fastmem these instructions for additional speed, with
support for appropriate recompilation on fastmem failure.
An unsafe optimization to disable the intercore global_monitor is also
provided, should one wish to rely solely on cmpxchg semantics for
safety.

Motion inputs were not being read in by the config when yuzu-cmd boots
up. This adds support for those.
While we're at it, make a reference to the current player controls to
improve readability. Also updates the if statements in the Analog and
Button loops with curly braces to keep the style consistent.
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.
