Readback buffers are allocated when the readback is recorded rather than on the render thread,
so only the thread that records frames touches VMA. The allocator is created externally
synchronized, and VMA is built with no-op mutexes and plain counters instead of std::mutex and
std::atomic.
Headless runs Vulkan offscreen in builds without SDL too, and CI runs the headless tests on
lavapipe, skipping the pixel tests a hardware backend doesn't match the software references on.
sleep_ms and sleep_us go, with the thread manager test waiting on an event instead, and so does
the unused portable-file-dialogs header.
Socket waits now block in select() on the socket plus a wake or cancel
socket (Common/Net/Cancel), so a stop or cancel ends them at once.
- HTTP: cancel flags become net::CancelToken; Connect waits once on all
addresses, receives wait instead of spinning, no DNS retry sleep.
- Adhoc: the friend finder and adhoc server block on their sockets with
a wake socket and a deadline; matching runs on a CoreTiming tick
instead of two threads (savestate section bumped).
- sceNetInet select/poll check without blocking and park the HLE thread,
re-checked from a CoreTiming event until ready or the emulated
timeout.
- Vendor the aemu_postoffice client (was a submodule) with no sleeps:
waits on the socket, close via shutdown and an eventcount, cancelable
connects, and lock-free session slot claims.
- PortManager waits without a timeout; PSP_InitWait replaces the
headless boot poll.
- TimeUtil: sleep_us/sleep_ms only outside the core; sleep_precise,
sleep_random, yield and the Windows timer period are gone.
- Unit test for the socket waits.
sleep_ms() should generally be avoided when possible. This can be used to try
to track down unnecessary sleeps by adding some logging.
This commit on its own doesn't actually add any logging.
* Add yield() function to tell the CPU that we're busy-waiting (rare)
Use it only for the busy-wait in lag sync, which only happens in
Windows.
* Buildfix attempt
