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.

This function does *not* always convert from UTF-16. It converts
from UTF-16 on Windows and UTF-32 on other operating systems.
Also renaming UTF8ToUTF16 for consistency, even though it
technically doesn't have the same problem since it only was
implemented on Windows.
This header doesn't actually make use of MathUtil.h within itself, so
this can be removed. Many other source files used VideoCommon.h as an
indirect include to include MathUtil.h, so these includes can also be
adjusted.
While we're at it, we can also migrate valid inclusions of VideoCommon.h
into cpp files where it can feasibly be done to minimize propagating it
via other headers.
It appears that some older drivers do not support
CreateSwapChainForHwnd, resulting in DXGI_ERROR_INVALID_CALL. For these
cases, fall back to the base CreateSwapChain() from DXGI 1.0.
In theory this should also let us run on Win7 without the platform
update, but in reality we require the newer shader compiler so this
probably won't work regardless. Also any hardware of this vintage is
unlikely to run Dolphin well.
Greatly simplifies the overall interface when it comes to compiling
shaders. Also allows getting rid of a std::string overload of the same
name. Now std::string and const char* both go through the same function.
