In the past, directory initialization could fail for two reasons:
The user was rejecting the storage permission, or external storage
wasn't mounted. With the introduction of scoped storage, the first of
these two couldn't happen anymore; if the user rejects the storage
permission, we just use the app-specific directory instead of the
dolphin-emu directory.
By making it so Dolphin force quits if external storage isn't mounted,
we can get rid of our code for handling retrying directory initialization
after it fails. I think this slight hit to UX is worth it considering
that basically nobody has an Android device with detachable primary
external storage anymore. And the UX hit is very small; the user just has
to manually open the app again after remounting external storage. The
toast about external storage not being mounted will still be displayed.
The recent merge of the splash screen PR may have made it so that the
code for handling directory initialization failing doesn't work anymore.
To be completely honest, I'm not sure how to even test this in 2022.
For a few years now, I've been thinking it would be nice to make Dolphin
support reading Wii games in the format they come in when you download
them from the Wii U eShop. The Wii U eShop has some good deals on Wii
games (Metroid Prime Trilogy especially is rather expensive if you try
to buy it physically!), and it's the only place right now where you can
buy Wii games digitally.
Of course, Nintendo being Nintendo, next year they're going to shut down
this only place where you can buy Wii games digitally. I kind of wish I
had implemented this feature earlier so that people would've had ample
time to buy the games they want, but... better late than never, right?
I used MIT-licensed code from the NOD library as a reference when
implementing this. None of the code has been directly copied, but
you may notice that the names of the struct members are very similar.

Without this, if the user finishes selecting a directory before
directory initialization finishes, MainPresenter.onDirectorySelected
will segfault when trying to read the MAIN_RECURSIVE_ISO_PATHS setting.
An alternative would be to use AfterDirectoryInitializationRunner
after the user selects the directory instead of before, but it might
be confusing for the user to deal with the usage statistics prompt
when they were expecting to add a folder.
All of our BBA options are technically built in, so it made the BBA
Built In option kind of confusing as to what it did. So rename it to
BBA HLE to make it more clear what it is doing and why it doesn't need a
TAP.
We currently have two different code paths for initializing controllers:
Either the frontend (DolphinQt) can do it, or if the frontend doesn't do
it, the core will do it automatically when booting. Having these two
paths has caused problems in the past due to only one frontend being
tested (see de7ef47548). I would like to get rid of the latter path to
avoid further problems like this.
Android Studio 2022.2 "Chipmunk" changes the code formatting rules a
little. Let's apply the new formatting in this PR so that the lint bot
doesn't take it out on innocent PRs.
Without this, debug builds of Dolphin fail to launch. The OS tries
to locate org.dolphinemu.dolphinemu.debug.DolphinApplication
but fails to find it because its actual name is
org.dolphinemu.dolphinemu.DolphinApplication.

Create vector Wii and Gamecube icons and re-import default android icons as vector graphics. Scales better on a greater range of devices and takes up less space.
themes.xml now contains a collection of colors, attributes, and styles. No visuals have changed, but this will allow for a more flexible theming system in the future for custom day/night/etc themes. This also removes a bunch of redundant code that can now be written as global styles and inherited themes.
