Also makes y_scale a dynamic parameter for EFB copies, as it doesn't
make sense to keep it as part of the uid, otherwise we're generating
redundant shaders.
This will generate one shader per copy format. For now, it is the same
shader with the colmat hard coded. So it should already improve the GPU
performance a bit, but a rewrite of the shader generator is suggested.
Half of the patch is done by linkmauve1:
VideoCommon: Reorganise the shader writes.
Improve bookkeeping around formats. Hopefully make code less confusing.
- Rename TlutFormat -> TLUTFormat to follow conventions.
- Use enum classes to prevent using a Texture format where an EFB Copy format
is expected or vice-versa.
- Use common EFBCopyFormat names regardless of depth and YUV configurations.
This is a remake of https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/3749

Old message:
"If none of the texture registers have changed and TMEM hasn't been invalidated or changed in other ways, we can blindly reuse the old texture cache entries without rehashing.
Not only does this fix the bloom effect in Spyro: A Hero's Tail (The game abused texture cache) but it will also provide speedups for other games which use the same texture over multiple draw calls, especially when safe texture cache is in use."
Changed the pr per phire's instructions to only return the current texture(s) if none of the texture registers were changed. If any texture register was changed, fall back to the default hashing and rebuilding textures from memory.
This is an issue because a driver may have to maintain two copies of a
texture if it batches all uploads together at the start of a frame.
In the Vulkan backend, we do something similar to avoid breaking out of a
render pass to copy a texture from the streaming buffer to the destination
image.
This was causing issues in the sms-bubbles fifolog, where an EFB copy to
the same address of a previously-used texture caused the previous texture
to be re-used again for a different image later on in the frame, causing
the original contents to be discarded.
Fixes a major preformance regression in Skies of Arcadia during
battle transisions.
I had plans for a more advanced version of this code after 5.0,
but here is a minimal implemenation for now.
This should get Donkey Kong Country Returns characters to be as broken as they should be. They will be fixed in a later pr.
Expected result is:
efbtex: characters are always flickering or invisible, no matter what scaling or IR setting
efb2ram: characters are always working properly at 1xIR, no matter what scaling or IR setting
Approximately three or four times now, the issue of pointers being
in an inconsistent state been an issue in the video backend renderers
with regards to tripping up other developers.
Global (ugh) resources are put into a unique_ptr and will always have a
well-defined state of being - null or not null
