fb4ff3e added a statistics option to show the internal resolution, but
it just showed the total size of the EFB (which is always 640x528) times
the IR scale, so it didn't convey any useful information.
This commit instead makes the option use the size of the last XFB copy
(not multiplied by the IR scale), which changes based on the game's
rendering resolution.
This takes care of making the image clearer in some edge cases where the game was already running at near perfect
4:3 with no stretching, and the VI aspect ratio didn't match the XFB by one pixel, making the image stretched and blurry.
-Video: Fix `FindClosestIntegerResolution() using the window aspect ratio and not the draw aspect ratio, causing it to prefer
stretching over black bars in cases when it wasn't desirable.
Instead, we make the event take a reference to the system and then pass
it in when the event is triggered.
This does introduce two other accessors, but these are much easier to
refactor out over time, and without modification to the existing event
interface.
To further increase the accuracy of the post process phase, I've added (scRGB) HDR support, which is necessary
to fully display the PAL and NTSC-J color spaces, and also to improve the quality of post process texture samplings and
do them in linear space instead of gamma space (which is very important when playing at low resolutions).
For SDR, the quality is also slightly increased, at least if any post process runs, as the buffer is now
R10G10B10A2 (on Vulkan, DX11 and DX12) if supported; previously it was R8G8B8A8 but the alpha bits were wasted.
Gamma correction is arguably the most important thing as Dolphin on Windows outputted in "sRGB" (implicitly)
as that's what Windows expects by default, though sRGB gamma is very different from the gamma commonly used
by video standards dating to the pre HDR era (roughly gamma 2.35).
Additionally, the addition of HDR support (which is pretty straight forward and minimal), added support for
our own custom AutoHDR shaders, which would allow us to achieve decent looking HDR in Dolphin games without
having to use SpecialK or Windows 11 AutoHDR. Both of which don't necessarily play nice with older games
with strongly different and simpler lighting. HDR should also be supported in Linux.
Development of my own AutoHDR shader is almost complete and will come next.
This has been carefully tested and there should be no regression in any of the different features that Dolphin
offers, like multisampling, stereo rendering, other post processes, etc etc.

To maintain compatibility with some video encoders, the whole output buffer was scaled to be a multiple of 4.
This change makes it so that that rule only applies while actively recording (or taking screenshots, even if it might not be necessary for that case).
