This uses the mailbox model to move pixel downloading to its own thread, eliminating Nvidia's warnings and (possibly) making use of GPU copy engine.
To achieve this, we created a new mailbox type that is different from the presentation mailbox in that it never discards a rendered frame.
Also, I tweaked the projection matrix thing so that it can just draw the frame upside down instead of having the CPU flip it.
This slider affects the number of cycles that the guest cpu emulation
reports that have passed since the last time slice. This option scales
the result returned by a percentage that the user selects. In some games
underclocking the CPU can give a major speedup. Exposing this as an
option will give users something to toy with for performance, while also
potentially enhancing games that experience lag on the real console
* Core::Timing: Add multiple timer, one for each core
* revert clang-format; work on tests for CoreTiming
* Kernel:: Add support for multiple cores, asserts in HandleSyncRequest because Thread->status == WaitIPC
* Add some TRACE_LOGs
* fix tests
* make some adjustments to qt-debugger, cheats and gdbstub(probably still broken)
* Make ARM_Interface::id private, rework ARM_Interface ctor
* ReRename TimingManager to Timing for smaler diff
* addressed review comments
10 slots are offered along with 'Save to Oldest Slot' and 'Load from Newest Slot'.
The savestate format is similar to the movie file format. It is called CST (Citra SavesTate), and is basically a 0x100 byte header (consisting of magic, revision, creation time and title ID) followed by Zstd compressed raw savestate data.
The savestate files are saved to the `states` folder in Citra's user folder. The files are named like `<Title ID>.<Slot ID>.cst`.
This holds the archives which include the SelfNCCH archive which holds the RomFS files. If we don't reset it the LayeredFS class can't get destructed and mods files won't be released.
Separate options are now provided for FFmpeg AAC audio decoder and FFmpeg video dumper. This allows users to configure Citra with greater freedom.
Also, previously for Linux builds, AAC decoder is accidentally enabled along with the dumper, which could potentially cause patent issues (?). This commit fixes it by only enabling video dumper.
For better tracking of performance regressions on incoming changes, this
change adds a way to dump frametime to file by changing an ini config
option. This is intentionally hidden as its only useful to a small
number of individuals, and not really applicable to the general
userbase.
It will both change the page table in memory and notify the CPU about the change by itself. This way there is no need to call memory.SetCurrentPageTable() when kernel.setCurrentProcess() and the management is kept internally in the kernel
This makes cpu_core and memory being completely independent components inside the system, having a simpler and more understandable initialization process
The thread which casues page table changes in memory will be responsible to notify the cpu_core too
Makes the dependency explicit in the TelemetrySession's interface
instead of making it a hidden dependency.
This also revealed a hidden issue with the way the telemetry session was
being initialized. It was attempting to retrieve the app loader and log
out title-specific information. However, this isn't always guaranteed to
be possible.
During the initialization phase, everything is being constructed. It
doesn't mean an actual title has been selected. This is what the Load()
function is for. This potentially results in dead code paths involving
the app loader. Instead, we explicitly add this information when we know
the app loader instance is available.
Services can hold kernel objects and do cleanup upon destruction, so we need to keep the kernel alive longer. The new order approximnately resembles the reverse construction order. I will revisit the ordering issue and make it less error-prone after global state cleanup

Two functional change:
QueryProcessMemory uses the process passed from handle instead current_process
Thread::Stop() uses TLS from owner_process instead of current_process
* Core: pass down Core::System reference to all services
This has to be done at once due to unified interface used by HLE/LLE switcher
* apt: eliminate Core::System::GetInstance
* gpu_gsp: eliminate Core::System::GetInstance in service
* hid: eliminate Core::System::GetInstance
* nwm: eliminate Core::System::GetInstance
* err_f: eliminate Core::System::GetInstance
