Previously this would not do anything correctly, as the call to obs_source_get_flags does not return anything for most sources. Instead obs_source_get_output_flags should be used to verify that we actually have a video or audio capable source to work with.
obs::source_tracker allows us to do more over more versions of OBS Studio, so we are able to enumerate any and all Sources, Scenes and Transitions that weren't created private. If we were to rely on libOBS for this, we would need to limit ourselves to version 23 or higher, but with this we can go very far back - as far back as the global event system was fully supported.
Audio capture previously needed an additional class, however there is no need for this if this can be done together with the actual obs::source object. So obs::source now has a new audio_data event that can be listened to, which handles capturing audio data if requested.
Additionally all other events are now selectively listened to, instead of permanently listening to them. This should drastically reduce the overhead of using obs::source.
Dual Filtering (or Dual Kawase) is an approximation of Gaussian Blur that can reach much higher Blur sizes at a much lower cost. However it is locked to a 2^n size, which means that currently it isn't possible to use it for blur sizes like 19, 24 and 31.
The Blur works by using the linear sampling of a GPU, combined with down- and upsampling and carefully placed sampling points. This means that there is no need for a linear optimized version of this Blur.

While Gaussian Blur is not a Blur type that really benefits much from linear sampling, it can be used for a slight quality and gpu usage reduction. However for Area and Directional Blur there is a better alternative: Dual Filtering Blur. And as with all other currently implement Linear versions of Blur, only Area and Directional Blur are supported.
This type of Gaussian Blur also has the loading hitch that exists in normal Gaussian Blur.

Gaussian Blur is another Blur that now supports the new system, increasing the maxium Blur size to 128 and adding support for Rotational and Zoom blur. Various optimizations were done to the actual shader code which further reduced the GPU usage.
Currently the Gaussian curve is recalculated when the blur is first created, which can lead to a short hitch due to it having to search for the correct kernels. This is currently unavoidable and expected behavior until a better solution is found.

Box Blur is a prime candidate for Linear optimizations, and as such reducing the total necessary samples by about half. However due to the reduction in samples, only Area and Directional Blur are supported.
Related: #45, #6
Box Blur is the first to be on the new system and has received all the new features and optimizations available. The maximum Blur size has been increased to 128, Rotational and Zoom Blur are supported and a small optimization has been done to the shader.

This is the new code base for blur effects, which is much more effective at being re-usable than the old code base. It allows for much better extendable behavior and uses an interface and factory pattern, instead of hardcoding supported features.
Small performance optimization as this removes the extra texture render that would be done by libobs which we don't actually need as we already have a texture to render to for it.
Rendering happens with cached Geometry that is only updated when necessary, such as when the user changes settings. This optimization was necessary to reduce CPU and GPU usage as we can simply re-use the same geomtry instead of recalculating it.
However, the actual source size was never checked. That meant that when a source changed size through any means, the filter would not update the geomtry accordingly, and the result was a squished or stretched image.
With this, the source size is now checked each tick.
Fixes#48
The number of files in the source directory was a little bit much and just made file naming more complex than it had to be. Therefore all files were moved into subdirectories where it matters.
Filters now reside in source/filters/, Sources in source/sources/, OBS Wrappers in obs/, OBS GS Wrappers in obs/gs/, Transitions will reside in source/transitions, Graphics Helpers will be in gfx/.
MipGenerator.Strength was renamed to MipGenerator.Intensity, which better fits the actual intention of the property. Additionally all the mipmap generator options are now correctly named.
Gaussian blur used to have a hard edge which was caused by the filter width being wider than the actual sampling range, which is what is determined by the size option. In order to fix this, we have to figure out the proper filter width for a sampling range, so that we avoid any and all hard edges.
Additionally removes the old texture method entirely.
Fixes#44
Source Mirror would incorrectly crash if an Audio only source was selected, as it expected a video frame to be present of any size. This fixes the problem by first testing if there is any video information to render and then just catching any exception that happens during rendering.
The normal OBS behavior is to cache files that are loaded from disk, however this is not the behavior we want at all, as it can miss file updates as it never checks the disk for an updated file.
So instead of relying on OBS, this implements the file reading and effect creation without the cache. If a cache is necessary, it would not be the job of this class.
This allows increasing or decreasing the accuracy of the Signed Distance Field at runtime without requiring the initial source to be resized. Use case for this would be small text where the higher quality would only be noticable on the shadow and not the text itself.
Sources were rendering with a black border around them if they had a soft fade, which is due to how the shadow calculated the image sample. With the new shader code this is now fixed and the source looks like it should be. Additionally this removes the bug where enabling any shadow would cause only the texels to draw that were above the threshold.
Additionally this adds support for inverse gradients (min > max) and negative gradients for outer shadows instead of only positive gradients. This technically allows for cleaner shadows.
The nature of this Signed Distance Field based Filter is not to only draw shadows, but to also draw an outline or even glow around a source. Therefore the name "Inner/Outer Shadow (SDF)" does not fit well with the intent of the actual Filter.
Allows for enumerating any kind of source, as long as it has a name and is not private. As obs_enum_scenes is a 23.x and above function, this class should be used instead to remain backwards compatible.
