Advantages:
* Simpler code in general
* No extra volume objects created
* Now actually notices if the disc or partition gets
changed while the core is running
* No longer picks up on disc access done by the GUI
(it used to do so as long as the core was running)
* Gets rid of a Core dependency in DiscIO
There are two performance disadvantages:
* FileMonitor is now a bit slower when used with VolumeDirectory
because FileMonitor now always uses the FileSystemGCWii code
for finding filenames instead of VolumeDirectory finding the
filename on its own and directly hooking into FileMonitor.
But this isn't such a big deal, because it's happening on the
DVD thread, and my currently unmerged file system PR will make
FileSystemGCWii's file finding code about as fast as
VolumeDirectory's.
* FileMonitor's creation of the file system object is now
done on the CPU thread instead of the DVD thread, and
it will be done even if FileMonitor logging is disabled.
This will be fixed in the next commit.
At first there weren't many enums in Volume.h, but the number has been
growing, and I'm planning to add one more for regions. To not make
Volume.h too large, and to avoid needing to include Volume.h in code
that doesn't use volume objects, I'm moving the enums to a new file.
I'm also turning them into enum classes while I'm at it.
Having some data available in banner loaders and some other data
data available in volumes gets messy, especially with GetNames(),
which is available in both but returns different results
depending on which one is used. This change drops support
for reading names and descriptions from Wii save data.
* Currently there is no DEBUGFAST configuration. Defining DEBUGFAST as a preprocessor definition in Base.props (or a global header) enables it for now, pending a better method. This was done to make managing the build harder to screw up. However it may not even be an issue anymore with the new .props usage.
* D3DX11SaveTextureToFile usage is dropped and not replaced.
* If you have $(DXSDK_DIR) in your global property sheets (Microsoft.Cpp.$(PlatformName).user), you need to remove it. The build will error out with a message if it's configured incorrectly.
* If you are on Windows 8 or above, you no longer need the June 2010 DirectX SDK installed to build dolphin. If you are in this situation, it is still required if you want your built binaries to be able to use XAudio2 and XInput on previous Windows versions.
* GLew updated to 1.10.0
* compiler switches added: /volatile:iso, /d2Zi+
* LTCG available via msbuild property: DolphinRelease
* SDL updated to 2.0.0
* All Externals (excl. OpenAL and SDL) are built from source.
* Now uses STL version of std::{mutex,condition_variable,thread}
* Now uses Build as root directory for *all* intermediate files
* Binary directory is populated as post-build msbuild action
* .gitignore is simplified
* UnitTests project is no longer compiled
buildfix
move much of the build settings to .props files
-please use them as much as possible in the future, instead of changing individual projects
NOTE: to avoid left over blobs, clean your builds *before* applying these changes.
TODO: add DebugFast target for projects that are lacking it. Lack of DebugFast targets cause the linker to use LTCG when we don't want it.
please test for regressions which could be caused by being too happy with compiler flags :)

fix all build targets (they've all built here - you may have to manually delete the intermediate directories if you have conflicts after this commit).
set the debug path to $(TargetDir)
