- Added support for enabling video recording when running as an Application, although it needs a specific flag set in the host title's nacp to be accessible.

- Refactored console device:
- The console now has an interface that can be used to override the default software rendering backend with a custom implementation (including GPU rendering).
- The software renderer now takes care of calling gfxInitDefault, gfxSwapBuffers, gfxExit. gfx functions should not be called explicitly by console users.

- Major rewrite and refactoring work in the gfx wrapper which brings reliability and usability improvements:
- Removed GfxMode_TiledSingle mode due to it causing problems and potential (temporary) hardware damage.
- The default transform behavior no longer vertically flips the framebuffer.
- Removed gfxSetDrawFlip since it's no longer needed thanks to the change in the default transform behavior.
- It is not necessary to call gfxWaitForVsync in most situations because gfxSwapBuffers already implicitly synchronizes with the display (this is mandated by the Android surface compositor and buffer producer system).

- Binder logic now more closely matches both Android code and official software.
