Previously there was only one function under the NetPlay namespace,
which is kind of silly considering we have all of these other types
and functions existing outside of the namespace.
This moves the rest of them into the namespace.
This gets some general names, like Player, for example, out of the global namespace.
The documentation for setting cache entries dicates that the type must
either be BOOL, FILEPATH, PATH, STRING, or INTERNAL (with those exact
casings). Also, given we properly case it in other places, this is just
consistent.
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...)
