It allows us to use texture views and it reduces the overhead within the GPU driver.
But it disallows us to reallocate the texture, but we don't do so anyways.
In the end, it is the new way to allocate textures, so there is no need to use the old way.

Lets us keep the generic portions of the compatibility list code
together, and allows us to introduce a type alias that makes it so we
don't need to type out a very long type declaration anymore, making the
immediate readability of some code better.
This has gotten sufficiently large enough to warrant moving it to its
own source files. Especially given it dumps the file_sys headers around
code that doesn't use it for the most part.
This'll also make it easier to introduce a type alias for the
compatibility list, so a large unordered_map type declaration doesn't
need to be specified all the time (we don't want to propagate the
game_list_p.h include via the main game_list.h header).
Eliminates the need to rebuild some source files if the file_util header
ever changes. This also uncovered some indirect inclusions, which have
also been fixed.
The follow-up to e2457418da, which
replaces most of the includes in the core header with forward declarations.
This makes it so that if any of the headers the core header was
previously including change, then no one will need to rebuild the bulk
of the core, due to core.h being quite a prevalent inclusion.
This should make turnaround for changes much faster for developers.
As means to pave the way for getting rid of global state within core,
This eliminates kernel global state by removing all globals. Instead
this introduces a KernelCore class which acts as a kernel instance. This
instance lives in the System class, which keeps its lifetime contained
to the lifetime of the System class.
This also forces the kernel types to actually interact with the main
kernel instance itself instead of having transient kernel state placed
all over several translation units, keeping everything together. It also
has a nice consequence of making dependencies much more explicit.
This also makes our initialization a tad bit more correct. Previously we
were creating a kernel process before the actual kernel was initialized,
which doesn't really make much sense.
The KernelCore class itself follows the PImpl idiom, which allows
keeping all the implementation details sealed away from everything else,
which forces the use of the exposed API and allows us to avoid any
unnecessary inclusions within the main kernel header.
Makes the class interface consistent and provides accessors for
obtaining a reference to the memory manager instance.
Given we also return references, this makes our more flimsy uses of
const apparent, given const doesn't propagate through pointers in the
way one would typically expect. This makes our mutable state more
apparent in some places.
Avoids the need to rebuild multiple source files if the filesystem code
headers change.
This also gets rid of a few instances of indirect inclusions being
relied upon
We can make the enum class type compatible with fmt by providing an
overload of operator<<.
While we're at it, perform proper bounds checking. If something exceeds
the array, it should be a hard fail, because it's, without a doubt, a
programmer error in this case.
Instead, we make a proper registry class and house it within the main
window, then pass it to whatever needs access to the loaded hotkeys.
This way, we avoid a global variable, and don't need to initialize a
std::map instance before the program can do anything.
The codec used by Qt for const char* and std::string don't necessarily
have to be the same depending on locale. Therefore, we should be using
the correct functions to do the conversions.
In OnMenuRecentFile() we don't need to construct a QFileInfo instance
just to check if a file exists, we can just use the static member
function to do that (which Qt's documentation also notes as quicker than
constructing an instance).
In UpdateUITheme(), we just want to try and open the file and check the
success of that operation. Technically speaking, between the existence
check and the open call, the file can be deleted or moved, but still
appear to succeed in code. i.e.
1. Existence check -> Returns true
2. File is moved/deleted
3. Open is called, the return value of which isn't checked
4. Nonsense behavior
This way we combine the existence check and the open into one.
Previously, when canceling out of the Load Folder dialog, a user would
get an error dialog about the selected folder not containing a main
file, however, by canceling out of the dialog, no selection was actually
made.
We move the initialization of the renderer to the core class, while
keeping the creation of it and any other specifics in video_core. This
way we can ensure that the renderer is initialized and doesn't give
unfettered access to the renderer. This also makes dependencies on types
more explicit.
For example, the GPU class doesn't need to depend on the
existence of a renderer, it only needs to care about whether or not it
has a rasterizer, but since it was accessing the global variable, it was
also making the renderer a part of its dependency chain. By adjusting
the interface, we can get rid of this dependency.
General moving to keep kernel object types separate from the direct
kernel code. Also essentially a preliminary cleanup before eliminating
global kernel state in the kernel code.
Makes the global a member of the RendererBase class. We also change this
to be a reference. Passing any form of null pointer to these functions
is incorrect entirely, especially given the code itself assumes that the
pointer would always be in a valid state.
This also makes it easier to follow the lifecycle of instances being
used, as we explicitly interact the renderer with the rasterizer, rather
than it just operating on a global pointer.
Instead of using an unsigned int as a parameter and expecting a user to
always pass in the correct values, we can just convert the enum into an
enum class and use that type as the parameter type instead, which makes
the interface more type safe.
We also get rid of the bookkeeping "NUM_" element in the enum by just
using an unordered map. This function is generally low-frequency in
terms of calls (and I'd hope so, considering otherwise would mean we're
slamming the disk with IO all the time) so I'd consider this acceptable
in this case.
This doesn't actually modify the internal class state, so it can be a
const member function. While we're at it, amend the function to take
its arguments by const reference.
