The current texture cache has several points that hurt maintainability
and performance. It's easy to break unrelated parts of the cache
when doing minor changes. The cache can easily forget valuable
information about the cached textures by CPU writes or simply by its
normal usage.The current texture cache has several points that hurt

This commit aims to address those issues.
Deduplicate code shared between vk_pipeline_cache and gl_shader_cache as
well as shader decoder code.
While we are at it, fix a bug in gl_shader_cache where compute shaders
had an start offset of a stage shader.
Implement VOTE using Nvidia's intrinsics. Documentation about these can
be found here

Instead of using portable ARB instructions I opted to use Nvidia
intrinsics because these are the closest we have to how Tegra X1
hardware renders.
To stub VOTE on non-Nvidia drivers (including nouveau) this commit
simulates a GPU with a warp size of one, returning what is meaningful
for the instruction being emulated:
* anyThreadNV(value) -> value
* allThreadsNV(value) -> value
* allThreadsEqualNV(value) -> true
ballotARB, also known as "uint64_t(activeThreadsNV())", emits
VOTE.ANY Rd, PT, PT;
on nouveau's compiler. This doesn't match exactly to Nvidia's code
VOTE.ALL Rd, PT, PT;
Which is emulated with activeThreadsNV() by this commit. In theory this
shouldn't really matter since .ANY, .ALL and .EQ affect the predicates
(set to PT on those cases) and not the registers.
These are std::shared_ptr instances underneath the hood, which means
copying them isn't as cheap as a regular pointer. Particularly so on
weakly-ordered systems.
This avoids atomic reference count increments and decrements where they
aren't necessary for the core set of operations.
Instead of having a vector of unique_ptr stored in a vector and
returning star pointers to this, use shared_ptr. While changing
initialization code, move it to a separate file when possible.
This is a first step to allow code analysis and node generation beyond
the ShaderIR class.
Some games call LDG at the top of a basic block, making the tracking
heuristic to fail. This commit lets the heuristic the decoded nodes as a
whole instead of per basic blocks.
This may lead to some false positives but allows it the heuristic to
track cases it previously couldn't.
std::moveing a local variable in a return statement has the potential to
prevent copy elision from occurring, so this can just be converted into
a regular return.
