This is a compile definition introduced in Qt 4.8 for reducing the total
potential number of strings created when performing string
concatenation. This allows for less memory churn.
This can be read about here:

For a change that isn't source-compatible, we only had one occurrence
that actually need to have its type clarified, which is pretty good, as
far as transitioning goes.
Without passing in a parent, this can result in focus being stolen from
the dialog in certain cases.
Example:
On Windows, if the logging window is left open, the logging Window will
potentially get focus over the hotkey dialog itself, since it brings all
open windows for the application into view. By specifying a parent, we
only bring windows for the parent into view (of which there are none,
aside from the hotkey dialog).
Avoids dumping all of the core settings machinery into whatever files
include this header. Nothing inside the header itself actually made use
of anything in settings.h anyways.
In our error console, when loading a game, the strings:
QString::arg: Argument missing: "Loading...", 0
QString::arg: Argument missing: "Launching...", 0
would occasionally pop up when the loading screen was running. This was
due to the strings being assumed to have formatting indicators in them,
however only two out of the four strings actually have them.
This only applies the arguments to the strings that have formatting
specifiers provided, which avoids these warnings from occurring.
This doesn't actually work anymore, and given how long it's been left in
that state, it's unlikely anyone actually seriously used it.
Generally it's preferable to use RenderDoc or Nsight to view surfaces.
- Use QStringLiteral where applicable.
- Use const where applicable
- Remove unnecessary precondition check (we already assert the pixbuf
being non null)
Fills in the missing surface types that were marked as unknown. The
order corresponds with the TextureFormat enum within
video_core/texture.h.
We also don't need to all of these strings as translatable (only the
first string, as it's an English word).
Rather than scream that the file doesn't exist, we can clearly state
what specifically doesn't exist, to avoid ambiguity, and make it easier
to understand for non-primary English speakers/readers.
Moves includes into the cpp file where necessary. This way,
microprofile-related stuff isn't dumped into other UI-related code when
the dialog header gets included.
Since C++17, the introduction of deduction guides for locking facilities
means that we no longer need to hardcode the mutex type into the locks
themselves, making it easier to switch mutex types, should it ever be
necessary in the future.
This was initially added to prevent problems from stubbed/not implemented NFC services, but as we never encountered such and as it's only used in a deprecated function anyway, I guess we can just remove it to prevent more clutter of the settings.
