There are two reasons for this.
1. Using Dolphin's logging system lets the user decide whether
the printout should go to the terminal, the GUI, or a file.
fmt::print always prints to stdout... unless you're on Android, in
which case it does nothing at all, because Android disables stdout.
2. The Windows version of Dolphin crashes when you use fmt::print.
Yes, really. The crash happens because a call to std::fprint in
fmt::v7::detail::fwrite_fully returns that less characters were
written than requested, which fmt handles by throwing an exception.
(As always, Dolphin does not use exception handling.)
I'm not sure why std::fprint is doing this, but since switching
away from using fmt::print is a good idea due to the previous point
anyway, I'd say it's best to just switch.

Common shouldn't be depending on APIs in Core (in this, case depending
on the PowerPC namespace). Because of the poor separation here, this
moves OSThread functionality into core, so that it resolves the implicit
dependency on core.
Previously the logging was a in a little bit of a disarray. Some things
were in namespaces, and other things were not.
Given this code will feature a bit of restructuring during the
transition over to fmt, this is a good time to unify it under a single
namespace and also remove functions and types from the global namespace.
Now, all functions and types are under the Common::Log namespace. The
only outliers being, of course, the preprocessor macros.
At its only usage point, its return value is stored into a u32, and the
default implementation returns 0xFFFFFFFF (-1), which would be an
unsigned integer. Given all of the bits are used to determine a color,
it makes slightly more sense to treat this as an unsigned value as
opposed to a signed one.
We're allowed (by the standard) to forward declare types within
std::vector, so we can replace direct includes with forward declarations
and then include the types where they're directly needed.
While we're at it, we can remove an unused inclusion of <cstring>, given
nothing in the header uses anything from it. This also revealed an
indirect inclusion, which this also resolves.
Previously u32 was being used for part of the interface and unsigned int
was being used for other parts. This makes the interface fully consistent by
using only one type.
We opt for u32 here given they communicate the same thing (for platforms
we care about where int is 32-bit), while also being less to read.
While we're at it, we can also default the constructor and destructor of
inheriting classes in their respective cpp file to prevent the
construction and destruction of non-trivial types being inlined into
other regions of code.
PowerPC.h at this point is pretty much a general glob of stuff, and it's
unfortunate, since it means pulling in a lot of unrelated header
dependencies and a bunch of other things that don't need to be seen by
things that just want to read memory.
Breaking this out into its own header keeps all the MMU-related stuff
together and also limits the amount of header dependencies being
included (the primary motivation for this being the former reason).
We already read the necessary information with the
HostRead_Instruction() call. Internally, it calls HostRead_U32() as
well, so there's no difference in behavior.
This fix the awkwardness of having the symbols detection, parsing and loading related logs be in OS HLE while they don't have anything to do with that.
If the delimiters of a memory aren't exactly the same as an address, but their size includes the memory breakpoint delimiter, the break will not go through. This makes it so that you can specify a search for a memory breakpoint with a data size and will check if the data fits with that size on all memory breakpoints so the breaks go through.
