This reverts commit fb265b610d.
The optimization in that commit is safe when the executor thread is
writing and the GUI thread is reading, but I had failed to take into
account that it's unsafe when the GUI thread is writing and the executor
thread is reading. (The native UpdateAdditionalMetadata function loops
through m_cached_files, which is unsafe if another thread is adding
elements to m_cached_files simultaneously.)
Losing out on this optimization isn't too bad, because
719930bb39 makes it very unlikely that
both threads will want the lock at the same time.
walking the zip prevents minizip from re-reading the same
data repeatedly from the actual backing filesystem.
also improves most usages of minizip to allow for >4GB,
files altho we probably don't need it
Previously, we had WBFS and CISO which both returned an upper bound
of the size, and other formats which returned an accurate size. But
now we also have NFS, which returns a lower bound of the size. To
allow VolumeVerifier to make better informed decisions for NFS, let's
use an enum instead of a bool for the type of data size a blob has.
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.
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.
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.
