We can iterate through the AdvancedGraphics settings and generate the UI
during runtime. This doesn't help runtime efficiency, but it helps a ton
in reducing the amount of work a developer needs in order to add a new
setting.
This option is only visible if an Intel GPU using the proprietary
driver is found during Vulkan device enumeration.
configure_graphics: More directly get driver id
Vulkan::Device does quite a bit more than we need just to see the
driver ID here.
Previously, yuzu would try and guess which vsync mode to use given
different scenarios, but apparently we didn't always get it right. This
exposes the separate modes in a drop-down the user can select.
If a mode isn't available in Vulkan, it defaults to FIFO.
As an optional feature which can be enabled in the advanced graphics configuration, all pipelines that get built at the initial shader loading are stored in a VkPipelineCache object and are dumped to the disk.
These vendor specific pipeline cache files are located at `/shader/GAME_ID/vulkan_pipelines.bin`. This feature was mainly added because of an issue with the AMD driver (see yuzu-emu#8507) causing invalidation of the cache files the driver builds automatically.

Additionally, this resolves the remaining GPLv2 only licensed files by relicensing them to GPLv2.0-or-later.
GLASM is getting good enough that we can move it out of advanced
graphics settings. This removes the setting `use_assembly_shaders`,
opting for a enum class `shader_backend`. This comes with the benefits
that it is extensible for additional shader backends besides GLSL and
GLASM, and this will work better with a QComboBox.
Qt removes the related assembly shader setting from the Advanced
Graphics section and places it as a new QComboBox in the API Settings
group. This will replace the Vulkan device selector when OpenGL is
selected.
Additionally, mark all of the custom anisotropic filtering settings as
"WILL BREAK THINGS", as that is the case with a select few games.
Some titles crash if the FPS limit is disabled when launching. This change ensures that titles launch with the limit in-place to avoid issues.
In order to simplify the change, the UI toggle was removed as it will always be overridden at launch to be disabled.
The setting can still be toggled during gameplay with the hotkey, and indicated by the fps label in the status bar.
