* Added a couple of utility macros to help with the conversion. lit() is
paired with tr() for untranslated text.
* QFormatStr is more explicitly for non-textual formatting strings.
* Both are just #define'd to QStringLiteral()
* It's annoying to have the constant buffer view reset and collapse
everything, especially if moving between draws where the variables are
the same because the shader hasn't changed.
* We can just compare the previous set of variables to the new set and
if the types and structures (member variables etc) are the same, then
just update the values in-place.
* By default VS creates a huge section of properties copy-pasted for
every Configuration|Platform combination, which is almost all the
same for each one.
* We instead create a common section with most of the properties that
are fixed, and then override/add to them for the few that vary (e.g.
optimisation settings for release, preprocessor macros).
* Tacking -official onto the git hash was a hack only needed on windows,
and since we want more information it doesn't scale.
* Instead we track anything we need to know about the version in
separate variables, like whether it's a stable build or a nightly/
local build. Or if it's built by a downstream distribution then the
version number for the downstream build.
* Since we're promoting everything, we reset the behaviour of
RDTreeWidget so that it's not doing anything different by default.
* RDTreeWidget's interface is a bit different, exposing some useful
things like a single selected item and so on.
* We also can't set columns in the Qt Creator UI anymore, so we set them
from code.
* We add our own custom item model to handle the cases we need. We can
also make a few assumptions and optimisations around things we can
safely assume like e.g. nodel columns won't really change after init.
* This lets us have full control over batching updates, which was the
main motivation, but it makes it easier to extend in future (e.g.
adding single per-item tags instead of the heavyweight Qt::UserRole
data elements).
* VAX can get confused by the QT_NAMESPACE macro, and if it thinks Qt
objects are inside a QT_NAMESPACE namespace then various things will
break but most commonly the ui objects inside that namespace won't be
picked up properly.
* See https://forums.wholetomato.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12573
* We previously were only checking if all lookups had completed before
self-deleting, but we also need to make sure nothing externally is
still holding onto the dialog.
* This is only relevant for static qrenderdoc builds where the python
used isn't the system python, so it needs to locate its libs.
Otherwise the system libpython3.so and libs will be used.
