Remove the PopulateBackendInfoFromUI function, which had a single caller
(GraphicsWindow::OnBackendChanged) and checked that the core wasn't
running or starting before calling PopulateBackendInfo.
Move the core state check into PopulateBackendInfo and have
OnBackendChanged call that instead. This guarantees the check is
performed by all callers of PopulateBackendInfo, preventing
potential reintroduction of the crash fixed in 3d4ae63f if another call
to PopulateBackendInfo is added.
As of the previous commit the only other caller of PopulateBackendInfo
is Core::Init shortly before s_state is set to Starting, so it will
always pass the check and so maintain its current behavior.
This fixes an issue where the game specific graphics backend would be saved as the global setting after playing a game.
This also now displays the currently running graphics backend when looking in the graphics configuration window.
m_xrr_config was used by the GeneralWidget::GetAvailableResolutions
function to get the list of supported fullscreen resolutions when
HAVE_XRANDR was set. aa4088a removed the ability to set that resolution
in the UI, leaving the GetAvailableResolutions function unused.
m_xrr_config is initialized in MainWindow which still uses it to toggle
fullscreen, but the references in GeneralWidget and GraphicsWidget
(which just ferried m_xrr_config from MainWindow to GeneralWidget) are
now unnecessary and removed in this commit.

The current approach results in the UI thread creating a graphics device
whilst the core is running, leading to races on function pointers, and
potentially crashing.
