This simplifies the logging system.
This also fixes some lost messages on startup.
The simplification is simple. I removed unused functions and moved most things in the .h to the .cpp. I replaced the unnecessary linked list with its contents laid out as three member variables. Anything that went through the linked list now directly accesses the backends. Generic functions are replaced with those for each specific use case and there aren't many. This change increases coupling but we gain back more KISS and encapsulation.
With those changes it was easy to make it thread-safe. I just removed the mutex and turned a boolean atomic. I was planning to use this thread-safety in my next PR about stacktraces. It was actually async-signal-safety at first but I ended up using a different approach. Anyway getting rid of the linked list is important for that because have the list of backends constantly changing complicates things.
We can simply enable CMAKE_AUTOUIC and let CMake take care of handling
the UI code generation for targets.
As part of letting CMake automatically handle the header file parsing,
we must not name includes with "ui_*" unless they're related to the
output of the Qt UIC compiler. Because of this, we need to rename
ui_settings, given it would conflict with this restriction.
