Currently, disabling mGBA when building gets rid of the ability to
change the GBA saves directory in DolphinQt, but it doesn't actually
get rid of Dolphin loading and storing the setting and creating the
folder. If the setting is set to a path you don't want to use
(perhaps you are trying to turn Dolphin portable), this is annoying.
To avoid accidentally making mistakes like this in the future,
I'm gating the existence of the setting behind an ifdef.
While trying to work on adding audiodump support for CLI, I was alerted that it was important to first try moving the DSP configs to the new config before continuing, as that makes it substantially easier to write clean code to add such a feature.
This commit aims to allow for Dolphin to only rely on the new config for DSP-related settings.
This is done entirely through interpreter fallbacks. It would
probably be possible to implement this using host exception
handlers instead, but I think it would be a lot of complexity
for a rarely used feature, so let's not do it for now.
For performance reasons, there are two settings for this feature:
One setting which does enables just what True Crime: New York City
needs and one setting which enables it all. The latter makes
almost all float instructions fall back to the interpreter.
Prompted by https://dolphin.ci/#/builders/24/builds/985
A 1-character typo in a recent PR caused FifoCI builds to break
horribly and spew millions of panic alerts until buildbot crashed.
This PR adds a new config option -- defaulting to off -- that allows
Dolphin to abort early on when a panic alert occurs instead of
continuing forever.

Fallback Region
A user-selected fallback to use instead of the default PAL
This is used for unknown region or region free titles to give them
the ability to force region to use. This replaces the current fallback region
of PAL. This can be useful if a user is trying to play a region free
tilte that is originally NTSC and expects to be run at NTSC speeds. This
may be done when a user attempts to dump a WAD of their own without
understanding the settings they have chosen, or could be an intentional
decision by a developer of a ROM hack that can be injected into a
Virtual Console WAD.
Remove using System Menu region being checked in GetFallbackRegion
Use DiscIO::Region instead of std::String for fallback
Add explanation text for Fallback Region
Other than the controller settings and JIT debug settings,
these are the only settings which were defined in Java code
but not defined in the new config system in C++. (There are
still a lot of settings that are defined in the new config
system but not yet saveable in the new config system, though.)
It is my opinion that nobody should use NKit disc images without
being aware of the drawbacks of them. Since it seems like almost
nobody who is using NKit disc images knows what NKit is (hmm, now
how could that have happened...?), I am adding a warning to Dolphin
so that you can't run NKit disc images without finding out about the
drawbacks. In case someone really does want to use NKit disc images,
the warning has a "Don't show this again" option. Unfortunately, I
can't retroactively add the warning where it's most needed:
in Dolphin 5.0, which does not support Wii NKit disc images.
