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.
Before we used different way of identifying which settings menu to
show, someotimes we used the section name, other times we used the
settings file name. This one replaces all those different ways by just
one way based on a menu tag which is more clear and easy to follow.
Deduplicates code, and gets rid of some problems the old code had
(such as: bad performance when calling native functions, only one
disc showing up for multi-disc games, Wii banners being low-res,
unnecessarily much effort being needed for adding more metadata).
Skip ubershader mode works the same as hybrid ubershaders in that the
shaders are compiled asynchronously. However, instead of using the
ubershader to draw the object, it skips it entirely until the
specialized shader is made available.
This mode will likely result in broken effects where a game creates an
EFB copy, and does not redraw it every frame. Therefore, it is not a
recommended option, however, it may result in better performance on
low-end systems.
9fa2470 changed how the ubershader setting is stored in INIs but didn't
update the Android GUI code to reflect that, so the setting in the
Android GUI has been broken starting with that commit.

Previously, this could cause a race condition which resulted in the
Vulkan backend attempting to acquire a swap chain image from a now
non-existant surface. By ensuring the backend knows about the surface
before a frame is presented, this race does not happen.
Android is allowed to pick any path for the external storage media and
that's why we should always use Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
to get the external storage path
onCreateView might not be called after resuming the emulatoin wich will
leed the game to stuck in the middle since mRunWhenSurfaceIsValid will be
true but surfaceChanged will never be called in this case.
