Persistent buffer maps were already used by the texture cache, this extends their usage for the buffer cache.
In my testing, using the memory maps for uploads was slower than the existing "ImmediateUpload" path, so the memory map usage is limited to downloads for the time being.

Create multiple descriptor pools on demand. There are some degrees of
freedom what is considered a compatible pool to avoid wasting large
pools on small descriptors.
Games can bind a null index buffer (size=0) where all indices are
evaluated as zero. VK_EXT_robustness2 doesn't support this and all
drivers segfault when a null index buffer is passed to
vkCmdBindIndexBuffer.
Workaround this by creating a 4 byte buffer and filling it with zeroes.
If it's read out of bounds, robustness takes care of returning zeroes as
indices.
Ports from OpenGL the optimization to skip small 3D uniform buffer
uploads. This will take advantage of the previously introduced stream
buffer.
Fixes instances where the staging buffer offset was being ignored.
Reimplement the buffer cache using cached bindings and page level
granularity for modification tracking. This also drops the usage of
shared pointers and virtual functions from the cache.
- Bindings are cached, allowing to skip work when the game changes few
bits between draws.
- OpenGL Assembly shaders no longer copy when a region has been modified
from the GPU to emulate constant buffers, instead GL_EXT_memory_object
is used to alias sub-buffers within the same allocation.
- OpenGL Assembly shaders stream constant buffer data using
glProgramBufferParametersIuivNV, from NV_parameter_buffer_object. In
theory this should save one hash table resolve inside the driver
compared to glBufferSubData.
- A new OpenGL stream buffer is implemented based on fences for drivers
that are not Nvidia's proprietary, due to their low performance on
partial glBufferSubData calls synchronized with 3D rendering (that
some games use a lot).
- Most optimizations are shared between APIs now, allowing Vulkan to
cache more bindings than before, skipping unnecesarry work.
This commit adds the necessary infrastructure to use Vulkan object from
OpenGL. Overall, it improves performance and fixes some bugs present on
the old cache. There are still some edge cases hit by some games that
harm performance on some vendors, this are planned to be fixed in later
commits.
Fix a bug where the memory allocator could leave gaps between commits.
To fix this the allocation algorithm was reworked, although it's still
short in number of lines of code.
Rework the allocation API to self-contained movable objects instead of
naively using an unique_ptr to do the job for us. Remove the VK prefix.
The "VK" prefix predates the "Vulkan" namespace. It was carried around
the codebase for consistency. "VKDevice" currently is a bad alias with
"VkDevice" (only an upcase character of difference) that can cause
confusion. Rename all instances of it.
The current texture cache has several points that hurt maintainability
and performance. It's easy to break unrelated parts of the cache
when doing minor changes. The cache can easily forget valuable
information about the cached textures by CPU writes or simply by its
normal usage.The current texture cache has several points that hurt

This commit aims to address those issues.
Now that the GPU is initialized when video backends are initialized,
it's no longer needed to query components once the game is running: it
can be done when yuzu is booting.
This allows us to pass components between constructors and in the
process remove all Core::System references in the video backend.
After marking buffers as resident, Nvidia's driver seems to take a
slow path. To workaround this issue, copy to a STREAM_READ buffer and
then call GetNamedBufferSubData on it.
This is a temporary solution until we have asynchronous flushing.
Make stream buffer and cached buffers as resident and query their
address. This allows us to use GPU addresses for several proprietary
Nvidia extensions.
Instead of using as template argument a shared pointer, use the
underlying type and manage shared pointers explicitly. This can make
removing shared pointers from the cache more easy.
While we are at it, make some misc style changes and general
improvements (like insert_or_assign instead of operator[] + operator=).
Reduces some header churn and reduces rebuilds when some header
internals change.
While we're at it we can also resolve a missing include in buffer_cache.
Drop MemoryBarrier from the buffer cache and use Maxwell3D's register
WaitForIdle.
To implement this on OpenGL we just call glMemoryBarrier with the
necessary bits.
Vulkan lacks this synchronization primitive, so we set an event and
immediately wait for it. This is not a pretty solution, but it's what
Vulkan can do without submitting the current command buffer to the queue
(which ends up being more expensive on the CPU).
The original idea of returning pointers is that handles can be moved.
The problem is that the implementation didn't take that in mind and made
everything harder to work with. This commit drops pointer to handles and
returns the handles themselves. While it is still true that handles can
be invalidated, this way we get an old handle instead of a dangling
pointer.
This problem can be solved in the future with sparse buffers.
The stream buffer before this commit once it was full (no more bytes to
write before looping) waiting for all previous operations to finish.
This was a temporary solution and had a noticeable performance penalty
in performance (from what a profiler showed).
To avoid this mark with fences usages of the stream buffer and once it
loops wait for them to be signaled. On average this will never wait.
Each fence knows where its usage finishes, resulting in a non-paged
stream buffer.
On the other side, the buffer cache is reimplemented using the generic
buffer cache. It makes use of the staging buffer pool and the new
stream buffer.
Amends a few interfaces to be able to handle the migration over to the
new Memory class by passing the class by reference as a function
parameter where necessary.
Notably, within the filesystem services, this eliminates two ReadBlock()
calls by using the helper functions of HLERequestContext to do that for
us.
