The general convention for CMake is to use lowercase for commands, and
given we also follow that convention through most CMake files, this just
makes it more consistent.
Works around a bug in QtCore that will cause crashes when
QFileSystemWatcher::addPath is called on a directory that is located on a
removable device (USB mass storage devices, etc.)
This should make the NetPlay dialog appear as a separate window in the taskbar on most systems, which makes more sense than a parented dialog as the user will leave it open for an extended period.
We want this setting to invalidate the cache because it may affect the appearance of textures in the rendered scene, therefore one would expect changing it while the game is running to have the expected effect immediately.
Initializing GraphicsWindow layout & children requires cooperation from
the graphics stack: on my system, for example, it causes a Vulkan
context to get created in order to get driver info. This is a slow
operation, and right now it is taking about 60-70% of the Dolphin
startup time on my system.
Move instead to a lazy-initialization model where the constructor
does nothing, instead offloading work to a separate Initialize() method
called before the window is shown.
I would expect this should be done for other larger parts of the UI,
especially the ones where creating widgets ends up triggering large IO
subsystems (I suspect controller configuration might be doing that).
(I'm not super happy with how this is implemented, but right now it's a
one-off, and it's a major complaint users have with the new UI. I
prioritized getting something working quickly...)
Thin archives contain pathnames pointing to the object files instead of
full copies of the object files. This significantly reduces the disk
usage when building Dolphin.

The resulting binaries are the same as before.
A similar change was implemented in the Linux kernel v4.8:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=a5967db9af51a84f5e181600954714a9e4c69f1f
Now the detection heuristic has changed, the old value is no longer
valid.
Some example thresholds for known mipmap effects that should trigger:
SMG's lava has a mimimum difference of ~17.8, SMG2's clouds have a
minimum difference of ~14.8, and Wind Waker's foam has a minimum
difference of ~15
Non-triggering examples were tested and all had a calculated difference
lower than 3.
So a value of 14 should lean towards false-negatives instead of
positives, but this is clearly incomplete testing and may require
further tweaks later.
This no longer converts from sRGB to linear for the reference mip
downsample - even if the original mipmap creation tool used an sRGB
colorspace (which isn't really guaranteed, and may even change per
game), this is a "fast" heuristic that's only an estimate anyway.
The average diff is also now stored in a u64, avoiding floating point
calculations in the per-pixel hot loop.
This should speed up the detection significantly, hopefully fixing
jank when loading in new textures.
Since we don't have proper confuguration file of what to include/exclude
in the backup, this better be disabled because it will lead to unexpected
state. This will solve any issue that was keep hapenning even after fresh
install of the emulator until you manually clear the app data.
