Adds a pass to process driver deficiencies between UID caching and use, allowing a full view of the whole pipeline, since some bugs/workarounds involve interactions between blend modes and the pixel shader
This increases accuracy, fixing the white rendering in Major Minor's Majestic March. However, the hardware backends can only have one viewport and scissor rectangle at a time, while sometimes multiple are needed to accurately emulate what is happening. If possible, this will need to be fixed later.
I think this is a relic of D3D9. D3D11 and D3D12 seem to work fine without it. Plus, ViewportCorrectionMatrix just didn't work correctly (at least with the viewports being generated by the new scissor code).
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.
We don't use sampler2DMS, but we do use sampler2DMSArray.
I can't reproduce it on my phone, but a user who was running GLES
on a Tegra X1 reported a shader compilation error related to this.
