Only impacts custom resolution, there used to be a much weaker algorithm
which doens't consider scissor sizes and gives a minor performance boost
in costs of accuracy (which was used when large framebuffer was disabled
in custom resolutions)
I've removed this as the performance tradeoff is rather negligible after
the implementation of #1942 and the older one is no longer necessary.
Also added an extra parameter for considering the horizontal scissor,
I'm not sure where this might be useful so this is disabled in code for
now till I discover a testcase where this helps or run it on random data
ensuring it's working properly.
Also porting this to the general scaling function might help with memory
spikes which are experienced when large framebuffer is enabled.
We can't do a full port because channel shuffle and depth sampling need
to be ported to d3d but at the very least we can do a partial port that
skips the bad draw calls.
This way we can remove all the remaining crc hacks for ICO in GSHwHacks.
This should make things a bit easier for users when picking resolutions.
Native (PS2)
2x Native (~720p)
3x Native (~1080p)
4x Native (~1440p 2K)
5x Native (~1620p 3K)
6x Native (~2160p 4K)
8x Native (~2880p 5K)
Custom (Not Recommended)
Change the code so that some crc hacks on some games that remove
ghosting/blur issues on upscaled resolutions are disabled on native
resolution if crc hack level is below Aggressive state (most of the time).
They aren't needed then so why don't we aim for better accuracy.
Follow up from #2586 which ensures that MAC address is unique on Xlink Kai when using Windows.
Previous build was returning last two bytes as 00:00 rather than last two bytes of host adapter's MAC.
Let's keep the file clean and use 1 type of formatting and not a bunch.
It's easier to read this way and looks tidy.
Also correct some commented out code in Texture Sampler.
Hack will no longer be active on Intel or AMD gpus.
Also remove UserHacks_disable_NV_hack. sprite hack
basically does the same thing so it's kinda useless.
Some values were incorrect, now I'm no expert but looking at the code
and behavior seemed a bit wrong compared to gl.
Improves d3d rendering on Sonic Unleashed, the purple screen is gone
matching it with gl visuals.
dfmt is not supported but we can use the variable to select the
frame buffer format and later disable writting to the alpha channel.
MGS3 sees an improvement, and possibly other games as well.
So far didn't spot any regressions.

Only native res is supported currently, but it's still great progress.
Someone needs to port the ScalingFactor to D3D from commit:

Credits to KrossX for porting the shader.
Adjust gui accross various gui windows.
Adjust naming, positioning of buttons, spacing ...etc.
The different windows should look more similar and not be different.
Also purge IDD_XAUDIO2 window that wasn't used anywhere.
Add a missing crc id for the US version,
, move the crc to DX level - effect is emulated correctly on OpenGL with
depth,
merge the two Yakuza hacks together and reformat it making it easier to
be read.
Skip 3 also seems to work on Yakuza 2.

Reformat the code a bit, ocd satisfaction.
This prevents the dialog from preserving state after it is closed, which
simplifies the logic slightly for reopening the dialog.
Also remove an unused variable.

Adjust the code to be easier to read, and execute the gl code only on amd - suggested by Gregory.
Remove useless ATI_SUCKS define in tfx shader.It wasn't used anywhere outside of the shader.
Enhance the skipdraw hack by allowing skipdraw to skip a range of draw
calls.
For example: When the broken effects are at frames 90-100, the default
skipdraw always skips 0-100, possibly skipping several functioning
effects as well. By enhancing the skipdraw feature, it is now possible
to skip just frames 90-100.
For the example given above set the first box to 90 and the second box
to 100 to skip frames 90-100.

Decrease spacing between Hardware Settings and Texture Filtering
slightly. It was a bit too much before,
Adjusted spacing to be equal between options, some had incorrect
spacing.
Maybe Accurate Date and Blending Unit Accuracy can be swapped.
Makes all the tabs scrollable, which makes the dialog more usable (the
OK button should always be present unless the screen is absurdly small).
Only checked on GTK3.
