Subject: Add libretro VFS and use VFS for windows target
X-Git-Tag: r24l~582^2~1
X-Git-Url: https://notaz.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=226a5691296bfb4f22d916348821b0eed6399a89;hp=625cc17f79f3eaeada1b741974bdc608ae4d2dd2;p=pcsx_rearmed.git

Add libretro VFS and use VFS for windows target

- Reverts the use of fopen_utf8 from previous commit and use
  "file_stream_transforms.h" instead: https://github.com/libretro/pcsx_rearmed/commit/270c6dd14f876b8a67929aa22abefc47f4588324#diff-2065d1414bac1198fb423574b4874d5bf92a2114a2f3e235c469d8fd6288dd10

- Enable the use of VFS for windows by default.

- compile with USE_LIBRETRO_VFS=1 to enable vfs when compiling for other
  platforms (including android if needed)
