These aren't particularly useful, and make the code a bit more confusing. If for some reason someone wants to test what happens when these functions are disabled, it's easier to just edit the code that implements them. They aren't exposed in the UI, so one would need to restart Dolphin to do it anyways.
Currently, disabling mGBA when building gets rid of the ability to
change the GBA saves directory in DolphinQt, but it doesn't actually
get rid of Dolphin loading and storing the setting and creating the
folder. If the setting is set to a path you don't want to use
(perhaps you are trying to turn Dolphin portable), this is annoying.
To avoid accidentally making mistakes like this in the future,
I'm gating the existence of the setting behind an ifdef.
Fixes a crash that could occur if the static constructor function for
the MainSettings.cpp TU happened to run before the variables in
Common/Version.cpp are initialised. (This is known as the static
initialisation order fiasco.)
By using wrapper functions, those variables are now guaranteed to be
constructed on first use.
This does this following things:
- Default to the runtime automatic number of threads for pre-compiling shaders
- Adds a distinct automatic thread count computation for pre-compilation (which has less other things going on
and should scale better beyond 4 cores)
- Removes the unused logical_core_count field from the CPU detection
- Changes the semantics of num_cores from maximaum addressable number of cores to actually available CPU cores
(which is also how it was actually used)
- Updates the computation of the HTT flag now that AMD no longer lies about it for its Zen processors
- Background shader compilation is *not* enabled by default
This commit changes the default value of Fast Texture Sampling to true, and also moves the setting that controls it to the experimental section of the advanced tab. This is its own commit so that it can be easily reverted when we want to default to Manual Texture Sampling.

While trying to work on adding audiodump support for CLI, I was alerted that it was important to first try moving the DSP configs to the new config before continuing, as that makes it substantially easier to write clean code to add such a feature.
This commit aims to allow for Dolphin to only rely on the new config for DSP-related settings.
