We currently have two different code paths for initializing controllers:
Either the frontend (DolphinQt) can do it, or if the frontend doesn't do
it, the core will do it automatically when booting. Having these two
paths has caused problems in the past due to only one frontend being
tested (see de7ef47548). I would like to get rid of the latter path to
avoid further problems like this.
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.
These files cannot compile correctly as C, so there's no reason to have
ifdefs for C compatibility.
We switched to not checking the __cplusplus macro in our JNI code some
time ago, but it seems like I forgot to remove it from these two files.
We don't have a timeout like this on other platforms, and it doesn't
accomplish anything useful as far as I can tell. If you trigger it,
all that happens is that you don't get a working game and also can't
press Exit Emulation without Dolphin hanging (stuck in Core::Shutdown).
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.
