* In a previous update in 2021 many copyright ranges were truncated
accidentally, and some files have been copy-pasted with wrong years. These
dates have been fixed based on git history and original copyright messages.
Add a column that shows the parent marker for the event range (by default the end event ID)
Add an option to prevent combining resource usage across markers (group by marker)

* Instead of storing the API pipeline states in the replay driver and returning
pointers, we store them in the replay controller and write into it from the
replay driver.
* This will allow us to remove the replay driver and still keep any previously
obtained references/pointers to the pipeline state valid.
* This is a string type which heavily optimises for immutability and minimal
storage. It only contains one pointer to the string data and always
reallocates on modify. For compile-time literals it doesn't modify or
allocate.
* On x64 we use the top bit in a tagged pointer to store a flag of whether it's
heap or literal, on other platforms it uses a separate field (meaning another
pointer sized value effectively, including padding).
* This is best for structured data which tends to use a lot of immutable strings
for type/name information, and only a few for actual string data (which are
only allocated once and aren't modified after that). Similarly we rarely want
to know only the size of any of these strings, we want the whole string so not
explicitly storing the size is not a big deal.
* Overall this reduces SDObject from 128 bytes to 80 bytes.
* We instead always have 3rdparty/ in the relevant include search paths and rely
on that. Each library still has its own unique base dir within 3rdparty to
clarify where the include is coming from.
* Subresource handling is more consistent - we pass around a struct now that
contains the array slice, mip level, and sample. We remove the concept of
'MSAA textures count samples as extra slices within the real slices' and
internalise that completely. This also means we have a consistent set
everywhere that we need to refer to a subresource.
* Functions that used to be in the ReplayOutput and use a couple of implicit
parameters from the texture viewer configuration are now in the
ReplayController and take them explicitly. This includes GetMinMax,
GetHistogram, and PickPixel.
* Since these functions aren't ReplayOutput relative, if you want to decode the
custom shader texture or the overlay texture you need to pass that ID
directly.
* This is supported currently in the API inspector, constant buffer previewer, and resource inspector.
* The saved expansions are only saved while the capture is open, and will be reset each time.
* The GUIInvoke object takes a QObject, and uses QPointer to check that
it hasn't been deleted when the callback fires. This prevents delayed
callbacks from executing after the object has been deleted and
crashing.
* In most cases the pointer is just 'this'.
Disable the warning on 3rdparty files

* We enforce a naming scheme more strongly - types, member functions,
and enum values must be UpperCaseCamel, and member variables must be
lowerCaseCamel. No underscores allowed.
* eventId not eventID or EID, and Id preferred to ID in general. Also
for resourceId.
* Removed some lingering hungarian m_Foo naming.
* Some pipeline state structs that are almost identical between the
different APIs are pulled out into common structs. Where something
doesn't make sense (e.g. viewport enable for vulkan) it will just be
set to a sensible default (in that case always true).
* Changed scissors to be x/y & width/height instead of sometimes
left/top/right/bottom
* Abbreviations are discouraged, e.g. operation not op, function not
func.
* This is a *very* light-touch analytics system that will track the
simplest and most anonymous statistics that can be useful in
determining which features are most used or perhaps underused, and
where it's best to direct development attention.
* It is entirely implemented in the UI layer, no analytics-gathering
code exists in the library that's injected into programs, and of
course no capture data (screenshots, resource contents, shaders, etc
etc) is transmitted.
* Once it's turned on, it will apply to both development and release
builds. It tracks stats over a month, and then at the beginning of a
new month it sends the previous data.
* When the user first starts up a build with analytics if there's no
previous analytics database then they are informed of the new code and
asked to approve it. They have the option of selecting to manually
verify any sent reports, or just opt-ing out entirely.
