RPCS3 0.0.0.9 (caution: LLVM recompiler removed)

[Nekotekina]

Trivial and typo fixes are likely not mentioned there.

• Refactoring and cleanup
• Added yaml-cpp submodule
• Configuration system rewritten (Utilities/Config.h)
• Configuration is now saved in config.yml
• Incremental config loading from ELF_PATH + .yml
• Loader and process initialization
  • ELF loaders rewritten and unified
  • Executable loaders improved (both PS3 and PSV)
  • PRX loader improved, basic VNID linkage (PS3)
  • HLE variable support (both PS3 and PSV)
• Gui
  • Disassembler modified to use 32-bit addresses
  • LLE module manager moved to Settings
  • VFS, VHDD, SaveData managers, Elf Compiler hidden
  • Log context menu now has Log Level and TTY settings
  • Gui settings are now saved in config_gui.yml
  • PAD settings are now saved in config_kbpad.yml
• Modules
  • cellVideoOutGetScreenSize restricted
  • cellNetCtl restricted (in favour of fixed cfg values)
  • cellResc implementation removed (use libresc.sprx as a workaround)
  • cellRtc implementation removed (use librtc.sprx as a workaround)
  • cellSysutilAvc2IsCameraAttached restricted
  • cellVideoOut rewritten
  • sys_spu_image_close implemented
  • sys_initialize_tls implemented
  • cellAudio simplified
  • ppu_error_code type added (lightweight return type for HLE functions, reports errors)
• Cell
  • New ppu_decoder template implemented
  • ppu_decoder_cache_t removed completely (ppu_decoder is fast enough)
  • CPUDecoder and its descendants removed completely
  • Old PPUInterpreter removed completely
  • PPULLVMRecompiler removed completely (TODO)
• Utilities
  • Atomic.h rewritten and improved
  • BitField.h improved (bitfield concatenation implemented)
  • Log.h simplified (constexpr channels, single listener, thread-local prefix getter)
  • Expects and Ensures redefined using ASSERT
  • _u8, _u16, _u32, _u64 string literal operators implemented
  • narrow function implemented (similar to gsl::narrow, allows custom message)
  • fmt::narrow with formatting
  • File.cpp refactoring and basic support for virtual FS devices
  • GNU.h -> Platform.h
  • rPlatform.h, rTime.h, rTime.cpp removed
  • sleep_queue_entry_t -> sleep_entry template refactoring (for sleep_queue, alias for std::deque)
  • StrFmt cleanup
  • Thread.h simplified (fixed name for named thread, removed std::future dependency)
  • Added mset<>: bitset which uses enum class monotonic values as the bit identifiers
  • Added void_t: equal to std::void_t from C++17
  • simple_t<> added (the "least common divisor" for simple type wrappers like atomic_t, be_t, bf_t etc)

psvita?

[tambry]

@elfogames What about it? Ah the tag. He changed some ARMv7 core stuff, so I added it for good measure.

[Ekaseo]

you cant change the settings for each game with this PR and also some games, i know this probably isnt finished yet, but just letting you know

[AniLeo]

Woah, this is a big one. The Travis build failed for some reason though.
@Ekaseo yeah, but the general config per game wasn't that big of a deal imo (I didn't even use it at all). I believe something like LLE modules enabled per game would be more useful than the general config per game.

[Nekotekina]

I'll try to make per-game configs more flexible, including LLE module set as a part of cfg. It's broken yet.

[Ekaseo]

@MyaniPT you might think that per game settings are unnecessary, but if you have 100+ games for testing and all of them use specific settings to run (like for example some games can run with DX12 and some cannot, some need write color buffers turned on, and some games dont work well with PPU interpreter 2 or LLVM recompiler. Its not easy to remember what game works in which settings... so its an issue for me

[AniLeo]

@Ekaseo Yeah I have over 100 games but I'm lazy enough to use the general configuration and change it every time I change game, I didn't get around to use per-game config yet. That is probably an issue for testers, yeah, you're right.

[AniLeo]

LLEing of modules isn't working at all. Tested with the AppVeyor build.
If I open the window, select the modules, close the window and reopen it again, there are no modules selected.

[vlj]

The RSX part looks good to me.

[AniLeo]

It doesn't really matter, I was just curious to know why did you went with 0.0.0.6 -> 0.0.0.9
As soon as it's fully ready I'll start testing a few games on it

[Nekotekina]

@AniLeo I guess you can try it just now, because I'm not planning to add anything to this PR anymore, at most very small fixes.
