We want to use positional arguments in translatable strings
that have more than one argument so that translators can change
the order of them, but the question is: Should we also use
positional arguments in translatable strings with only one
argument? I think it makes most sense that way, partially
so that translators don't even have to be aware of the
non-positional syntax and partially because "translatable
strings use positional arguments" is an easier rule for us
to remember than "transitional strings which have more than
one argument use positional arguments". But let me know if
you have a different opinion.
tr calls with more than one argument would have a 0x04 byte
in the returned string when no translation was found
(which always is the case when using Dolphin in English).
This is already handled by SurfaceDestroyed. In the worst case,
the extra code could even race with SurfaceDestroyed if they
are triggered at the same time, but this is highly improbable.
Time for yet another new iteration of working around the
"surface destruction during boot" problem...
This time, the strategy is to use a mutex in MainAndroid.cpp.
This assumption is false both in portrait mode (where it only
covers the top half of the screen) and when using two apps at once.

This was removed in cc5802b when it should have
been converted to the new setting instead,
and it seems like I didn't notice when reviewing it.
I'm changing the DirectoryInitialization logic a little
so that clearWiimoteNewIniLinkedPreferences also is called
when there was no WiimoteNew.ini previously, in case the
user deleted WiimoteNew.ini but not Dolphin.ini.
Fixes the following warning:
../../../../../../Core\DiscIO/DirectoryBlob.h:156:3: warning: explicitly defaulted move constructor is implicitly deleted [-Wdefaulted-function-deleted]
DirectoryBlobReader(DirectoryBlobReader&&) = default;
^
../../../../../../Core\DiscIO/DirectoryBlob.h:205:22: note: move constructor of 'DirectoryBlobReader' is implicitly deleted because field 'm_encryption_cache' has a deleted move constructor
WiiEncryptionCache m_encryption_cache;

We generally have no reason to call these functions on our own, so
there's not much reason to declare them, especially not in the cpp
file where they're defined. In case we ever do get a reason to do
it, we can add declarations for just the functions that need them.
In case someone wants to be very careful with how much bandwidth
they use or with what data GameTDB.com collects on you.
This is already an option in DolphinQt (though in DolphinQt it
will switch entirely from using covers to banners when turned off).
Once nice benefit of fmt is that we can use positional arguments
in localizable strings. This a feature which has been
requested for the Korean translation of strings like
"Errors were found in %zu blocks in the %s partition."
and which will no doubt be useful for other languages too.
It would be difficult to use the AlertMessage class for
messages that need to be showed outside of emulation,
but showing them as toasts is better than not showing them.
During emulation, when LocalGame has a value but CurrentRun
doesn't, we want to read from LocalGame, not CurrentRun. This
change exposes a LAYER_ACTIVE option that handles this correctly.
By calling ZSTD_CCtx_setPledgedSrcSize, we can let zstd know
how large a chunk is going to be before which start compressing
it, which lets zstd avoid allocating more memory than needed
for various internal buffers. This greatly reduces the RAM usage
when using a high compression level with a small chunk size,
and doesn't have much of an effect in other circumstances.
A side effect of calling ZSTD_CCtx_setPledgedSrcSize is that
zstd by default will write the uncompressed size into the
compressed data stream as metadata. In order to save space,
and since the decompressed size can be figured out through
the structure of the RVZ format anyway, we disable writing
the uncompressed size by setting ZSTD_c_contentSizeFlag to 0.
Unlike Super Paper Mario, this game doesn't crash as soon as you
try to start it, but rather if you try to skip a certain cutscene.
Thanks to JMC for letting me know about this.
This is part of my efforts to add support for scoped storage.
I figured I would start with a relatively simple feature to
make sure that everyone is fine with the approach I'm taking
before I tackle more complicated features like the game list.
CommandLineParse expects UTF-8 strings. (QApplication, on the
other hand, seems to be designed so that you can pass in the
char** argv untouched on Windows and get proper Unicode handling.)
Any call to Config::SetCurrent will cause the relevant setting
to show up as overridden in the Android GUI, which can be confusing,
so let's not do it when the new value is the same as the original.
SYSCONF very much is saveable. Whether it's in IsSettingSaveable
or not hasn't mattered until now since the SYSCONF settings use
separate config loader code that doesn't check IsSettingSaveable,
but the next commit will require SYSCONF to be marked as saveable.
The main activity loads settings essentially as soon as it
starts, in order to determine which tab to show. If the process
of stopping emulation has not finished at this point, a race
condition may be triggered where two IOS kernels are created
at once due to the emulation thread loading or saving the
SYSCONF while the GUI thread is loading the SYSCONF. To fix
this, we can wait for emulation to fully end before returning.
Because this race condition is hard to reproduce, I have not
been able to test that this actually fixes the race condition,
or even that the cause of the race condition is exactly what I
believe it is. But I am relatively confident.
