The display can point inside a larger framebuffer: Silent Hill flips
between two halves of a 1024-wide 565 buffer. Presenting it found the
framebuffer and the offset, but screenshots looked up only an exact
address match, and otherwise read RAM, which with a hardware renderer
holds something stale (Silent Hill: Origins' savestate thumbnails showed
the loading screen). Screenshots of the display now use the same lookup
and read back the 480x272 at the offset.
Headless screenshots go the same way: eight Silent Hill frame dumps
(Origins and Shattered Memories) now match the PSP exactly on Vulkan and
OpenGL, from 0.8k-104k differing pixels.

The game does shadow mapping without depth textures (#16126):
- It renders the scene once into 44170000 with depth, then draws it again
into 44170400 (the same buffer 256 pixels to the right) with the same
depth address and an EQUAL depth test. We render 44170400 into the
same framebuffer at an X offset, which moves the depth test along with
the color, so it compared against the wrong depth and the shadow pass
drew nothing. Copy the depth over to the offset once per pass.
- It reads its 256x256 565 light-depth map as CLUT32. The reinterpret to
8888 went into an existing 8888 buffer at the same address that was
only 128x128, which cut the map off below row 128. Grow it first.

On the PSP the stencil is the alpha bits, so after the colors of another
format are reinterpreted into a 5551, 4444 or 8888 buffer, its stencil has to
follow the new alpha. Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins sets 5551 alpha with a masked
565 blue write and then stencil tests on it; Vulkan drew its glow through a
stale stencil. The memory stencil upload's pipeline and passes are shared.

These own GPU objects, memory or refcounts in their destructors (or assert
there that they were torn down), so a copy would double-free. Nothing copies
them today; this keeps it that way. The manager base classes cover every
backend's subclass.

Fixes#17451, while also keeping the Dante performance fix from #17032.
Of course, it's possible that something else could slow down now... But
hopefully not. This could also fix other problems.
Fixes#17030 , or at least improves on it - for optimal performance that
big framebuffer used for bloom should be split like in Killzone, but it's not trivial.
The regression in 1.14 is fixed with this, at least.
I tried it with a few other games with no issues - it seems games are
using TexFlush when needed. But let's see if it really is safe to rely
on that...
There might also be other places we should call DiscardFramebufferCopy
in.
And thus change of depth buffer scale/offset.
Previously, old depth buffers with values that now are out of range
could stick around, causing #16941. This clears them to the expected 0
value, which helps Outrun. Ideally we should convert depth buffers to
the new format, but if we can get away without that, that's also nice.
This is enough for #16941.
