With this, GCC 8 and above should now be able to compile the project both in obs-studio and as a standalone install. Some features are currently still not fully supported and require extra work, but the majority of things are supported and work out of the box. Exact feature parity can be looked up here on the wiki: https://github.com/Xaymar/obs-StreamFX/wiki/Platform-Feature-Parity

This fixes the case where the effect vanishes, but we still hold an invalid pointer to a parameter of that effect. With the new code, the effect will not vanish as long as an effect pointer exists.
However, all effects must be created either through std::shared_ptr or std::make_shared. If they were not made through one of those means, the code will crash on the ->shared_from_this() call.
To further distance the code from having to do too much manually, the graphics context is now available as a managed class. All places that previously used obs_enter_graphics and obs_leave_graphics are now using the new gs::context class instead.
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/.
