OpenGL Renderer: Ensure that all color attachments are assigned sequentially without gaps, and ensure that fragment shaders write out a value to each assigned attachment in all cases. This is being done to try and satisfy extremely picky AMD drivers that can do crazy-go-nuts things when the color attachments are not meticulously managed this way.

OpenGL Renderer: Better emulate the special NDS rendering quirk for drawing front-facing fragments on top of back-facing opaque fragments. Completely fixes the Customize screens in Sands of Destruction. (Related to commit 8944328.)
...
- Specifically, translucent polygons now properly render on top of the back-facing opaque fragments from the opaque polygon rendering pass. Do note that emulating this special NDS rendering quirk is still not complete, as it does not account for drawing any translucent polygons on top of the opaque fragments of back-facing partially-translucent alpha-textured polygons. However, I have not seen any games that actually go so deep into such an edge case. If there is such a game, then this issue will need to be revisited.
- Now that this special rendering quirk is more accurate, this does cost some performance. However, since this rendering quirk is controlled by the "Enable Depth L-Equal Polygon Facing" option, which is OFF by default, this performance loss is deemed acceptable in favor of the increased accuracy.

GFX3D: The polygon clipping stage now occurs before any polygon sorting, allowing for the sorting of smaller lists. This can be a significant performance improvement for some 3D scenes with high polygon counts.
...
- 3D renderers no longer perform polygon clipping themselves, instead relying on GFX3D to do it. By default, the clipping mode is ClipperMode_DetermineClipOnly, but 3D renderers can change this by overriding the virtual method Render3D::GetPreferredPolygonClippingMode() and returning their preferred clipping mode.

OpenGL Renderer: Before rendering, determine the list of clipped polygons, and then only render the clipped polygons, just like how SoftRasterizer does it. Most 3D games will see a significant performance improvement. For certain games with very high polygon count scenes, those games will see a massive performance boost.

GPU: Significantly improve the performance of HD rendering for many 3D games.
...
- Specifically, if the previous frame is determined to draw the entire HD layer directly over the backdrop layer, then the current frame's entire custom framebuffer is asynchronously cleared using line 0's backdrop color since most games will keep the backdrop color constant for all scanlines. Because this is a common rendering case, many 3D games should see a performance improvement when running very large HD framebuffers (8x or higher).
- Also fix a compiling issue for non-SSE2 systems. (Regression from commit 3890431.)

37afaefa2f
OpenGL Renderer: Replace the accuracy/performance tradeoff "Enable Depth Equals Test Tolerance" with "Enable NDS-Style Depth Calculation", where disabling this option allows the host GPU to natively calculate depth which significantly improves performance in many games.
...
- New Behavior: In addition to emulating the existing Depth Equals Test Tolerance, NDS-Style Depth Calculation accounts for all NDS depth calculations within the fragment shader. Most notably, disabling this option forgoes the W-depth / Z-depth differentiation that the NDS uses, instead preferring the GPU's native Z-depth calculation. Using the GPU's native depth calculation significantly improves performance, but many games use W-depth calculations or are sensitive to subtleties in the Z-depth calculation, and so this option must remain ON by default for compatibility's sake.
- Also fixes a shader initialization issue on the Windows port. (Regression from commit 7080e21.)
