The D3D backend was always forcing Anisotropic filtering when that is enabled regardless of how the game chose to configure the texture filtering registers; this causes the same issues as "Force Filtering" without Anisotropy, such as causing game UI elements to no longer line up adjacent correctly. Historically, OpenGL's Anisotropy support has always worked "better" than D3D's due to seeming to not have this problem; unfortunately, OpenGL's Anisotropy specification only gives GL_LINEAR based filtering modes defined behavior, with only the mipmap setting being required to be considered. Some OpenGL implementations were implicitly disabling Anisotropy when the min/mag filters were set to GL_NEAREST, but this behavior is not required by the spec so cannot be relied on.
This should get Donkey Kong Country Returns characters to be as broken as they should be. They will be fixed in a later pr.
Expected result is:
efbtex: characters are always flickering or invisible, no matter what scaling or IR setting
efb2ram: characters are always working properly at 1xIR, no matter what scaling or IR setting

Approximately three or four times now, the issue of pointers being
in an inconsistent state been an issue in the video backend renderers
with regards to tripping up other developers.
Global (ugh) resources are put into a unique_ptr and will always have a
well-defined state of being - null or not null
This was due to specifying negative source coordinates for the texture copy, which must lie within the bounds of the source and destination textures.
The behavior now is to clamp the copy region to [0 <= size <= backbuffer size], resulting in a copy region that can be smaller than the backbuffer, but never larger.
Since ResolveSubresource cannot be used with depth textures (and throws an error with the debug layer enabled), use a shader which selects the minimum depth value from all samples.
Changes the sampler by XFBEncoder to use a linear filter, rather than point, to match GL behavior.
They were only called at once, so no need to seperate them.
This also removes the only dereference of the NativeVertexFormat in VideoCommon, so backends may just return nullptr.
