For a few years now, I've been thinking it would be nice to make Dolphin
support reading Wii games in the format they come in when you download
them from the Wii U eShop. The Wii U eShop has some good deals on Wii
games (Metroid Prime Trilogy especially is rather expensive if you try
to buy it physically!), and it's the only place right now where you can
buy Wii games digitally.
Of course, Nintendo being Nintendo, next year they're going to shut down
this only place where you can buy Wii games digitally. I kind of wish I
had implemented this feature earlier so that people would've had ample
time to buy the games they want, but... better late than never, right?
I used MIT-licensed code from the NOD library as a reference when
implementing this. None of the code has been directly copied, but
you may notice that the names of the struct members are very similar.

If libusb fails to initialize, an assertion fails, but if that happens before the main window is created, then Dolphin just dies. Now, the panic alert is properly shown and the user can ignore it.
Fixes a crash that could occur if the static constructor function for
the MainSettings.cpp TU happened to run before the variables in
Common/Version.cpp are initialised. (This is known as the static
initialisation order fiasco.)
By using wrapper functions, those variables are now guaranteed to be
constructed on first use.

Before e1e3db13ba
the ControllerInterface m_devices_mutex was "wrongfully" locked for the whole Initialize() call, which included the first device population refresh,
this has the unwanted (accidental) consequence of often preventing the different pads (GC Pad, Wii Contollers, ...) input configs from loading
until that mutex was released (the input config defaults loading was blocked in EmulatedController::LoadDefaults()), which meant that the devices
population would often have the time to finish adding its first device, which would then be selected as default device (by design, the first device
added to the CI is the default default device, usually the "Keyboard and Mouse" device).
After the commit mentioned above removed the unnecessary m_devices_mutex calls, the default default device would fail to load (be found)
causing the default input mappings, which are specifically written for the default default device on every platform, to not be bound to any
physical device input, breaking input on new dolphin installations (until a user tried to customize the default device manually).
Default devices are now always added synchronously to avoid the problem, and so they should in the future (I added comments and warnings to help with that)
Previously, if you have "Hotkeys Require Window Focus" disabled, you could repeatedly use the "Open" hotkey, for example, to stack File Open windows over top of each other over and over.
This commit allows the hotkey manager to disable/enable on QFileDialog creation and destruction.
Previously, the file dialog window was ambiguous between saving or loading a .dtm. This commit simply gives a bit more context to differentiate the two windows.

this prevented some devices from being recreated correctly, as they were exclusive (e.g. DInput Joysticks)
This is achieved by calling Settings::ReleaseDevices(), which releases all the UI devices shared ptrs.
If we are the host (Qt) thread, DevicesChanged() is now called in line, to avoid devices being hanged onto by the UI.
For this, I had to add a method to check whether we are the Host Thread to Qt.
Avoid calling ControllerInterface::RefreshDevices() from the CPU thread if the emulation is running
and we manually refresh devices from Qt, as that is not necessary anymore.
Refactored the way IOWindow lists devices to make it clearer and hold onto disconnected devices.
There were so many issues with the previous code:
-Devices changes would not be reflected until the window was re-opened
-If there was no default device, it would fail to select the device at index 0
-It could have crashed if we had 0 devices
-The default device was not highlighted as such
This way, it can be focused with the render window behind it, instead of having the main window show up and cover the render window. This is useful for adjusting the object range, among other things.
This adds a function to get the emulated or real Bluetooth device for
an active emulation instance. This lets us deduplicate all the
`ios->GetDeviceByName("/dev/usb/oh1/57e/305")` calls that are currently
scattered in the codebase and ensures Bluetooth passthrough is being
handled correctly.
This also fixes the broken check in WiimoteCommon::UpdateSource.
There was a confusion between "emulated Bluetooth" (as opposed to
"real Bluetooth" aka Bluetooth passthrough) and "emulated Wiimote".
