Changed several enums from Memmap.h to be static vars and implemented Get functions to query them. This seems to have boosted speed a bit in some titles? The new variables and some previously statically initialized items are now initialized via Memory::Init() and the new AddressSpace::Init(). s_ram_size_real and the new s_exram_size_real in particular are initialized from new OnionConfig values "MAIN_MEM1_SIZE" and "MAIN_MEM2_SIZE", only if "MAIN_RAM_OVERRIDE_ENABLE" is true.
GUI features have been added to Config > Advanced to adjust the new OnionConfig values.
A check has been added to State::doState to ensure savestates with memory configurations different from the current settings aren't loaded. The STATE_VERSION is now 115.
FIFO Files have been updated from version 4 to version 5, now including the MEM1 and MEM2 sizes from the time of DFF creation. FIFO Logs not using the new features (OnionConfig MAIN_RAM_OVERRIDE_ENABLE is false) are still backwards compatible. FIFO Logs that do use the new features have a MIN_LOADER_VERSION of 5. Thanks to the order of function calls, FIFO logs are able to automatically configure the new OnionConfig settings to match what is needed. This is a bit hacky, though, so I also threw in a failsafe for if the conditions that allow this to work ever go away.
I took the liberty of adding a log message to explain why the core fails to initialize if the MIN_LOADER_VERSION is too great.
Some IOS code has had the function "RAMOverrideForIOSMemoryValues" appended to it to recalculate IOS Memory Values from retail IOSes/apploaders to fit the extended memory sizes. Worry not, if MAIN_RAM_OVERRIDE_ENABLE is false, this function does absolutely nothing.
A hotfix in DolphinQt/MenuBar.cpp has been implemented for RAM Override.
This will help to disable all inter-instruction dependencies.
So android users can check if only a single instruction is broken without compiling dolphin on their own.
Play can only be used when a game is selected and emulation is not
running. Start can be used when a game is selected (to start from
cold boot) or when emulation is running (to start from a savestate).

QStringLiterals generate a buffer so that during runtime there's very
little cost to constructing a QString. However, this also means that
duplicated strings cannot be optimized out into a single entry that gets
referenced everywhere, taking up space in the binary.
Rather than use QStringLiteral(""), we can just use QString{} (the
default constructor) to signify the empty string. This gets rid of an
unnecessary string buffer from being created, saving a tiny bit of
space.
While we're at it, we can just use the character overloads of particular
functions when they're available instead of using a QString overload.
The characters in this case are Latin-1 to begin with, so we can just
specify the characters as QLatin1Char instances to use those overloads.
These will automatically convert to QChar if needed, so this is safe.
Instead of selecting languages based on the user config at the time
of TitleDatabase creation and merging the different languages into one
map for GC and one map for Wii, have one map for each language, and
have the caller supply the language they want. This makes us not need
the IsGCTitle function, which is inaccurate for IDs that start with D.
Doing pretty much anything in the controller config breaks NetPlay
(desync and/or deadlock), as saving the settings reconfigures
controller interfaces, which NetPlay doesn't expect.
Previously we wouldn't indicate if saving or loading these files
happened to fail. In some cases we'd only print out to the logger, but
this is a pretty poor way to tell a user of the interface that something
went wrong in a direct way (the logging messages aren't able to be localized
either).
