For thread safety, we shouldn't return any pointers or references that
can be used to mutate the state of the PPCSymbolDB. This should be the
final part of making PPCSymbolDB thread safe unless I've missed
something.
9395238 added locking in some PPCSymbolDB functions that access member
variables, but far from all. To ensure thread safety, this commit adds
the missing locking.
9395238 added a mutex to PPCSymbolDB, and made functions return with an
"empty" result if called while the mutex is locked. This new behavior
has the potential to affect not only less important call sites like the
symbol printing mentioned in a comment, but also the JIT deciding if it
should HLE a function.
A later commit in this pull request decreases the amount of lock
contention, reducing the performance impact of this commit.
Cleanup loading code and reduce amount of signals.
On boot. allow previously loaded map to be kept, if its filename matches. Useful for restarting a game with a large symbol map.
Notes are separate from function symbols, and can be searched separately.
Unlike functions, notes of different length can overlap each other.
In the instruction window, a note will always display over the function symbol.
The base DebugInterface now depends on the Core's CPUThreadGuard, and
utilities in Common shouldn't be depending on Core facilities. So, we
can move this into the core library instead.
This fixes a problem I was having where using frame advance with the
debugger open would frequently cause panic alerts about invalid addresses
due to the CPU thread changing MSR.DR while the host thread was trying
to access memory.
To aid in tracking down all the places where we weren't properly locking
the CPU, I've created a new type (in Core.h) that you have to pass as a
reference or pointer to functions that require running as the CPU thread.

Converts the remaining PowerPC code over to fmt-capable logging.
Now, all that's left to convert over are the lingering remnants within
the frontend code.
We're allowed (by the standard) to forward declare types within
std::vector, so we can replace direct includes with forward declarations
and then include the types where they're directly needed.
While we're at it, we can remove an unused inclusion of <cstring>, given
nothing in the header uses anything from it. This also revealed an
indirect inclusion, which this also resolves.
PowerPC.h at this point is pretty much a general glob of stuff, and it's
unfortunate, since it means pulling in a lot of unrelated header
dependencies and a bunch of other things that don't need to be seen by
things that just want to read memory.
Breaking this out into its own header keeps all the MMU-related stuff
together and also limits the amount of header dependencies being
included (the primary motivation for this being the former reason).
