The Blur Filter can now be applied to a region inside the source itself, the inverse of that region, and/or a feathered version of that region. This allows for easier scene setups where only some parts need to be blurred, but the rest can be left as is.
Fixes#12
From this point on, Source Mirror is now capable of real-time mirroring of Video and Audio. This can help if you need different filters per scene for your microphone or voice chat, depending on the scene (audio ducking for pause scene, no audio ducking for live gaming).
Custom Shader allows you to write your own effect files and just have them applied to your source(s). It will dynamically update the properties to match the parameters in the source as well as offer some special parameters to the shader.

Scaling was previously incorrectly rendering the source with another effect forced onto it, resulting in slower rendering and some sources that would no longer render properly.
Additionally the new option allows the user to have the source render at the original resolution in order to allow previously applied transform to stay identical. The rescaling however will no longer apply to filters after this source then, thus the speed bonus is lost.
Also categorized the localization file and adds descriptions for existing and new properties for Source Mirror.
The source allows you to apply effects to the same source without requiring a new instance of the source. Any changes done to the original source also apply to the mirror, so there is less total work that needs to be done.
It can also rescale the source, allowing you to use the same source as a cheap instant backdrop with Blur for example. What you do in the end is completely unwritten and up to you to decide.
End goal of this is to be an anisotropic filtering purely on the GPU without any actual mipmaps in the graphics subsystem. The basic idea behind it is that we can create all possible mipmaps in a twice as big texture as the original and then can efficiently render it no matter the GPU features as it will only consume one sampler.
The texture that it outputs will have both horizontal, vertical and full mipmaps in it. Horizontal mipmaps reduce Width, Vertical mipmaps reduce Height and full mipmaps reduce both. This means that LoD levels are both possible in the X and Y direction, allowing for much greater precision mipmapping on all GPUs.
This is a temporary solution until we can directly copy updated textures to a mipmap level.
This option allows applying the blur to other color formats such as YUV. Bilateral Blur benefits the most from this, resulting in smoother images at lower kernel sizes.
* Added a 'Bilateral' de-noising blur, currently very resource hungry. It also has two extra sliders called 'Smoothing' and 'Sharpness', the former controls how smooth the output is
* Updated effect loading to be global instead of per instance.
* Changed default blur size to 5px.
* Simplified render loop (see previous effect commit).
An unknown issue with the OBS effect parser causes it to generate nothing when more than two techniques are in the same file. This works around the issue, but doesn't actually fix it.
This is not very optimized at the moment and will take quite a bit of GPU time. Will have to spend some time later to optimize it and perhaps add directional blur ("Motion Blur" to it).
* Fixed the perspective mesh not filling the entire frame with the default settings.
* Changed the maximum range of 'Field of View' to 179 degrees instead of 180 degrees.
* Changed the direction the perspective camera looks at to +Z instead of -Z. This should feel more natural for users of other 3D programs.
* Changed the 'Position (Z)' default to 0.
* Added translation strings for 'Field Of View', 'Position', 'Scale' and 'Rotation'.
