This pr content and goal is to provide following to Eden's user base issues with settings, adjust default values on settings and refactor some handlings to improve the plug-and-play factor:
-> Combo-box for ASTC Recompression Method Removed: The removal of this toggle was due to the redundant process inside Android devices, most drivers do suppot ASTC handling natively and meanwhile this option provided some benefits to some older Mali devices, the specifications from those and the real compatibility doesn't pay the need for this setting, unless something else is provided to be wrong, the default setting will be uncompressed and no longer available in UI to change. Removed some dead code along with it.
-> Removal of ASTC Decode Method ifdef block for Android: Since Yuzu's, the handling for this option was strangely set on CPU, having a specific block for Android in settings, possibly due to the constant spikes on GPU usage that wouldn't be good to load GPU with the whole flow of operations; but since then and until today, Eden's constant effort to make operations more accurate and smartly resolved, have marked the difference that now CPU default on Android no longer provides the benefit to relief GPU stress than reducing performance in some heavy draw commands on some games; the default will be set to GPU to keep parity with PC configuration aiming for a global configuration with all platforms. The setting will be kept to user range, unless is proved to no longer be needed, right now low end devices could still have benefit from CPU/Async, but requires testing from community to show real potential.
-> Adjusted default value of ExtendedDynamicState: Currently we're facing some issues of logic inside of ExtendedDynamicState implementation, that makes it a bit unstable when it comes to use the disabled mode, right now we jump to ExtendedDynamicState1 for more stability, meanwhile we fix the remaining issues in future updates (currently one fix will be presented - or would be merged along this pr, the 1st Global Vulkan Maintenance which has some fixes for this situation), so stock drivers and other mobile drivers will behave and benefit from this.
-> Exposed hidden and defaulted settings to user's UI: Yuzu implemented some settings that were available on PC's UI but weren't presented on Android's UI or wasn't something expected to do, either way there are some strange behaviors due to this default settings and each of them do something different, i'm not gonna dive into a deep explanation, but to make it short, they stablish asynchronous operations for GPU operations, like Async GPU Emulation (to use a CPU thread to boost performance with GPU emulation, currently a performance hack), Asynchronous Vulkan Presentation this does something a like to disperse draw's/ syncing from TimelineSemaphores and set a thread of CPU to help in running some Vulkan operations (another performance Hack), meanwhile most of the Desktop drivers are mostly nice with this setting, Nvidia aren't due to the nature of the hack, so provokes black screen or failing into initialize games. Mostly Asynchronous operations are fast-paths/ hacks to improve performance to the cost of some graphical issues like the pop-in with Asynchronous Shader Building during the shader compilations, sometimes the trade-off could give random crashes and other issues. Android it's not the exception and currently by disabling GPU Async Emulation user's will be able to fix some strange flickering on Zelda - Link's Awakening (NCE) and other games suffering from similar issues, may also fix random crashes on games that are supposed to work. These settings will be exposed for a short amount of time, meanwhile I receive feedback of the usefulness of having them active or the whole operation being used on Android, aside that, disabling them or one of them will inevitable reduce performance a bit, not so notorious, but it will be up to user's decision now to use them or not.
-> AMD FidelityFX's Super Resolution UI handling (a personal request): Now the slider default value will be 0% and will only appear whenever FSR is choosed among other window adapting filters, this will also work with the quick setting menu during runtime.
-> Fixed the issue of changing drivers removing all games compiled shader cache: Currently our implementation to safeguard users from unknown issues when a different driver tries to load/ read compiled shaders from another version of Turnip/ QCOM driver, that will delete shaders if the driver is removed or changed; deleted all games compiled shader cache, which increased the annoyance on Android users along with adding unneeded complexity, this used to happen whenever a driver was changed in global settings or per-game settings. Now no longer will happen if the driver is changed on global settings and changing drivers in per-game configuration will only delete current game where the driver was change without affecting others, from here, I'll apologize for this unneeded situation.
-> Refactored the input controller detection (another request of mine, hehehe...): This implementation will work to reduce the burden on a new installation (since I have to test everything personally, cuz testers are lazy ass mfs), the input detection is now more accurate to what kind of input a device has, whether is in-built or wireless gamepad, will map it once Eden detect's physical input by reading the controllers inputs that OS provides natively and set or disable touchscreen controllers automatically:
- If in-built is detected (Ayaneo, Ayn, Retroid or any Android handheld), Eden will map it automatically and will disable touchscreen controller.
- If Wireless gamepad is detected, the same behavior as described above will happen with the extra to recover touchscreen controller whenever the gamepad goes off.
It was quite funny to do this, cuz Xiaomi and some other manufacturers always do strange shenanigans with how the inputs are detected (wasn't funny).

This fixes two problems:
1. After a crash, it was possible to launch a game before external content gets mounted. Now the button will wait for it to complete.
2. Directory initialization was init system before init globalconfig, so after a crash firmware was not being remounted
(have you ever noticed fw version = N/A in device overlay, after fiddling with applets?)
(this had been fixed in 3755, which was not thoroughly tested by cocoon dev)

Complementary for 3750.
User found a way to get same driver doubled and deleting one would lead to a crash.
Reason: manual driver install was still adding drivers directly to adapter, instead of thru drivermodel. fixed.
Also added guards against crash upon driver removal.
Thoroughly tested.

This Pr is a reply to certain issues found on Android due to the new artificial waits inside Vulkan (Frame Pacing Mode); which caused GPU/CPU desync's even if TimelineSemaphore (Adreno's drivers) does a constant check to retain synchronization with each frame-data, removes the yield() for all platforms (remains the same on PC) and aligns a new way to handle the output of video by using native Android tools, such as AGP, which makes a bridge inside Vulkan to Android's Surface (screen) and reduces not only the latency, but also improves the smoothness of each frame processed; currently we quantize the amount of frame processed by hinting the surface on Android space and adjust the heuristics of the old handling (yuzu) and we link it to screen refresh rate; this way we ensure that even if the game moves below the screen's HZ, we can always pick up the cadence by clamping the duration of each frame and using a chrono function to work as internal fernce if performance goes below the game speed requirment or game's frame rate requirements.

To fix orphan fragments' black flicker transitions, these fragments were bounded to SettingsSubscreenActivity.
Since driver removal is queued for when leaving driver screen, but new activity dies too soon, old uninstall was being cancelled.
Changed to uninstall directly upon leaving screen. Also fixed the driver list refresh right after driver installation (prolly compromised for the same transition reason).

to fix navigation issues (PR3699), i've bounded all orphaned fragments to SettingsSubscreenActivity.
(IIRC that were tested, whatever) Somehow the launching from per-game settings (where addons fragment is bounded to MainActivity got broken).
This PR just made ContentTypeSelectionDialogFragment self-sufficient so it lives under both MainActivity and SettingsSubscreenActivity.

- our logging code was bigger than spdlog itself, why???? just keep it simple
- fix issues when logging before logging system is even started
- removes the "initialized logging twice" issue
- removes uneeded indirection in file logging
- uses direct formatting instead of jumping hoopla-around the fmt::format() ressult
- code duplication and dead code removal as usual
I did explore dup2() but I think it's not worth the hassle
I did try `fwopen()` but it's better if things are just kept as-is.
there is a lot of noise because I removed a bunch of redundant files on logging and just put everything in one file
now normally this wouldn't be a good idea, however consider: the complexity of logging; it's less than 500 lines... does it really need a whole subsystem?!?!?! ITS JUST LOGGING

This fixed the delete button enabled for external content (which is auto handled and the proper way to get rid of them is either by removing its folder from ext content list, or removing the file itself) by streaming patch source thru jni.
Along the way stumbled upon another bug: If you have an external content update installed (say latest version for example) and you NAND install a previous update (like in silksong's hard mode update), the newest update version string would leak to the previous one.
Did videos for both. Fixed both. Seems good to go.

Foreword: WHY DON'T EVERYBODY USE ONE FOLDER FOR EACH GAME+CONTENTS? AIN'T THIS THE FORMAT GAMES COME WHEN YOU BUE THEM? DO YOU LIVE WITH ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND HAVE A 2ND HOUSE FOR ALL THE CHILDREN?
Nice, i feel better now.
This feat extends Maufeat's work on external content loading. It harmonically additions:
"...also, if in each game folder X, you find a folder Y, and in this folder Y you detect ONLY a single game, then mount all external content for that game found in that folder Y and its subfolders."
Permanent (not toggleable). External Content folders are supported equally.
Also:
-Reworked several routines for preserving single source of truth between android and other systems;
-Fixed the annoying unknown format error for content files, by providing proper format detection.

if user invokes the "pause game" option from the menu while in game, as expected this suspends the process till user manually hits resume.. except for one case: Android sleep/wake lifecycle.
If user manually pauses a running game, then sleeps their device, then wakes their device; the game will self-resume without user pressing "resume game".
Expected behavior IMO is that if user left the game process in manually paused state, app should respect this and persist the pause on system wake, so that user may manually press "resume game" to unfreeze the process.
Simple fix is to have a few params for user initiated pause and resume, and update the pause and run methods to handle as described above.
Please let me know if there is a cleaner way to implement!

This PR aims to return an older way to bind and host vertex/ buffers (via toggle), which had a bunch of indirection and added unnecessary overhead during the drawing phase; current new approach adds just PoD for this operations, which seems to not be acceptable for older turnip drivers.
Meanwhile the performance improvements are gonna be enabled only if the toggle is turned on, it will be required to use newer turnip drivers to make it work (26.0+), default behavior will allow older drivers work as intended.

Most android joypads has xbox layout, so while when in UI CONFIRM buttom (A) is the bottom one, in games it is the right one. And the opposite for BACK (B) button.
And that kinda sucks. And some users complained, so i had this idea.
Disabled by default. Toggle in the lonely App Settings menu. No impact at all.

Closes#3344
Adds slow and turbo modes with configurable speeds that can then be
toggled by the user. Behavior is:
- Standard/slow limit, toggle turbo = turbo
- Turbo limit, toggle turbo = standard
- Standard/turbo limit, toggle slow = slow
- Slow limit, toggle slow = standard
Enabling the turbo/slow mode enables the frame limiter unconditionally.
This has some conflicts with VSync. For example when I set my refresh
rate to 60hz and enable vsync, turbo mode does nothing. Not sure how to
go about fixing this, @MaranBr probably knows better the proper
solution.
