Almost all the virtual functions in Renderer are part of dolphin's
"graphics api abstraction layer", which has slowly formed over the
last decade or two.
Most of the work was done previously with the introduction of the
various "AbstractX" classes, associated with texture cache cleanups
and implementation of newer graphics APIs (Direct3D 12, Vulkan, Metal).
We are simply taking the last step and yeeting these functions out
of Renderer.
This "AbstractGfx" class is now completely agnostic of any details
from the flipper/hollywood GPU we are emulating, though somewhat
specialized.

The SDK seems to write "default" bounding box values before every draw
(1023 0 1023 0 are the only values encountered so far, which happen to
be the extents allowed by the BP registers) to reset the registers for
comparison in the pixel engine, and presumably to detect whether GX has
updated the registers with real values. Handling these writes and
returning them on read when bounding box emulation is disabled or
unsupported, even without computing real values from rendering, seems
to prevent games from corrupting memory or crashing.
This obviously does not fix any effects that rely on bounding box
emulation, but having the game not clobber its own code/data or just
outright crash is a definite improvement.
Additional changes:
- For TevStageCombiner's ColorCombiner and AlphaCombiner, op/comparison and scale/compare_mode have been split as there are different meanings and enums if bias is set to compare. (Shift has also been renamed to scale)
- In TexMode0, min_filter has been split into min_mip and min_filter.
- In TexImage1, image_type is now cache_manually_managed.
- The unused bit in GenMode is now exposed.
- LPSize's lineaspect is now named adjust_for_aspect_ratio.
This is now unused. Seems like it was an improper fix
(there would be a race if saving the screenshot took longer
than 2 seconds) back when it was used too.
This header doesn't actually make use of MathUtil.h within itself, so
this can be removed. Many other source files used VideoCommon.h as an
indirect include to include MathUtil.h, so these includes can also be
adjusted.
While we're at it, we can also migrate valid inclusions of VideoCommon.h
into cpp files where it can feasibly be done to minimize propagating it
via other headers.
Greatly simplifies the overall interface when it comes to compiling
shaders. Also allows getting rid of a std::string overload of the same
name. Now std::string and const char* both go through the same function.
