Global memory emulation using NV_shader_buffer_store and DrawElementsIndirect macro HLE

[gdkchan]

This is mostly a bunch of changes/fixes to get Nintendo Switch Sports working. I don't plan to get this specific PR merged, instead each change should be PRed and tested individually later.

This includes the following changes:

• New approach for global memory emulation. This approach works for games that passes GPU pointers to the shader and access them directly. It requires NV_shader_buffer_store OpenGL extension that is only supported by NVIDIA, so it won't work on other vendors.
• HLE macro for DrawElementsIndirect. Not necessary to make it work, but it improves the performance.
• Some shader fixes related to geometry shader passthrough.

This change allows the game to go in-game on NVIDIA as you can see on the screenshots below.

Even with 1.0.0+9203702 (winx64 version), the game crash after we launch a party (launch any game or motion controls calibration always failed or go to avatar creator or both of them) and joyconpair always required even in game with 1 joycon.

Is there anyway to enable the artifacts on this? Looks like it expired 2 days ago and this fix hasn't been rolled up yet.

[AzevedoForce]
