Now SerialInterfaceManager::UpdateDevices reads the configured SI
devices directly from Config instead.
The main reason why I wanted to do this is so that Android can change SI
devices while emulation is running. (Android didn't have the code for
calling ChangeDevice.) But when implementing the change, I noticed that
NetPlay and Movie were using ChangeDevice as a way of overriding the SI
devices configured by the user. Replacing this ended up making the change
larger than I first anticipated.
For Wii Remotes, there was no equivalent to ChangeDevice, so NetPlay and
Movie were using Config::SetCurrent to override the Wii Remote source
configured by the user. If we can use the config system to override Wii
Remote sources, why not do the same for SI devices? This commit makes
NetPlay and Movie set SI devices and Wii Remote sources in the NetPlay
and Movie config layers, as that is the conceptually appropriate place
to do it.
As far as I can tell, the old Movie code for overriding SI devices and
Wii Remote sources didn't actually work. This new code does. I didn't
investigate exactly why it didn't work, but maybe it's because loading
a movie happens before emulation actually starts.
For some reason, NativeLibrary.kt calling Log for the alert message text
makes Dolphin die with a JNI error. Supposedly the jstring passed to the
logging function is invalid. I don't understand why, because the dialog
that we show right afterwards is able to read the string just fine. The
error happens even if I pass the string directly to Log without
prepending any extra text.
There's no real downside to having the logging in C++ instead of Kotlin,
so let's move it to C++ to avoid the JNI error.
Now with cancel button and an actual progress bar. For simplicity, we do
two passes on the progress bar, one for loading the NAND into memory and
one for extracting it. The user directory is likely on an SSD, making
the extraction pass invisibly fast.
The following settings were excluded:
* Port 1-4 ROM: We're only supporting Game Boy Player for now
* Save in Same Directory as the ROM: Implementation nightmare due to SAF
Override AGP-bundled R8 in settings.gradle.kts:
- classpath("com.android.tools:r8:9.1.34") from r8-releases/raw
This resolves :app:minifyReleaseWithR8 failing with:
java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index -1 out of bounds for length 0

Reasons:
- Only 0.000341% of all Android users were on API 21-23 in the last 365 days.
- These devices are old and likely do not run Dolphin well.
- Android 5.x and 6.0 have been without security updates for about 8 years.
- Staying on API 21–23 blocks AndroidX updates, including Lifecycle.
