While Linux was not an original goal of the project, it should still be supported out of the box. Therefore a number of changes are contained in this changeset:
- All C++ .h files were renamed to .hpp.
- All C includes (<....h>) were replaced with C++ includes (<c...>) and missing includes were added.
- std::memset and std::memcpy was replaced with memset and memcpy.
- All anonymous structs were removed where necessary.
- `extern "C"` was removed where it wasn't needed.
- #pragma warning was placed behind an #ifdef _MSC_VER
- The macros for `min`, `max` and `clamp` were removed as they were not used.
- `-fpedantic` was added to the GCC flags for bitmask support.
- `gs::rendertarget_op` is now declared before use.
- std::exception(const char*) was replaced with std::runtime_error(const char*).
- Added aligned_alloc and aligned_free macros for GCC and MSVC support.
- Replaced use of `sprintf_s` with `snprintf`.
- Placed additional guards around windows only code.
Additonally some changes were made that do not affect Linux:
- `NOMINMAX` and `NOINOUT` were removed.

Directional Blur (also known as Motion Blur in some art software) enables full control over the direction the passes are applied in, which can further be combined with the scaling option. With this very simple blur effects can have a massively bigger influence.
Step Scaling allows for improved control over individual Blur passes and can be combined with Directional Blur to imitate certain effects. It also allows smaller Blur sizes to cover a larger area, although with a drastic loss in final quality. For example, if someone is streaming at 720p and wants to have their dynamic 2160p background blurry to a very high degree, this option would allow that at next to no quality loss in the final stream. The actual values that need to be used vary for each source and encoder however, so they will have to be chosen carefully.
Translucent sources previously rendered with wrong alpha, which caused sources to look different than they should. With the new code, this is no longer the case and instead now renders the source correctly.
Additionally the modernized code should reduce any problems with rendering by reducing the amount of duplicated manually written code and instead using classes.
This speeds up Gaussian Blur and Linear Gaussian Blur drastically reduces time spent reading textures and instead uses existing registers - maximizing time spent reading the actual image texture.

Similar to Linear Box Blur, this version of Gaussian Blur reduces the total number of sample by up to n. This results in a total sample count (per pass) of O(n+1) for even radii and O(n+2) for odd radii. The quality sacrificed to do this is higher this time, though careful adjustment of the halfTexelDelta value can bring it much closer to normal Gaussian Blur. The current offset however had no noticable effects on visual quality.

Linear Box Blur abuses the fact that with Linear Sampling we can sample up to four adjacent texels at the same time and get a correct result for Box Blur back. Using this the total number of sample for Box Blur is reduced by n, making the total either n+1 (Even Radius) or n (Odd Radius).
Additionally all blur effect files have been merged into a single blur.effect file to reduce the time required to change a single parameter name. New blur effects should be added as a new technique instead of as a new effect file.

Adds Inner/Outer Shadows for dynamic sources based on signed distance field generation. This is fast, but does add a bit of latency when it comes to updates - which means that moving objects will leave a trail before the generator has a chance to update.
Fixes#3
Due to the lack of checking aud and aoi, a rare race condition crash can be observed with audio mirroring enabled on closing OBS. In this case, aoi is used even though it is null, causing OBS to crash instead of closing normally.
Fixes#22
Adds full support for Scenes as mask input so that you can re-use your overlay scene as a blur input and have the blur follow behind your overlay.
Closes#14
* Removes the old 'Region' fields and places them under a 'Mask' option that can do much more.
* Supported Mask types: Region, Image, Source.
* Image and Source mask types allow for a color filter and multiplier.
* Supports region, feathered region, inverted region, inverted feathered region and image input.
* Interpolates between image_blur and image_orig depending on the result of the mask function.
* Now using a Factory and Instance approach to simplify and beautify the code at the same time.
* Additionally we now keep track of created filters and only load data if there is a filter active, and unload data if there are no more filters. This reduces memory and GPU overhead when no filter is active, but adds a first time filter creation overhead.
* Variables and functions now use snake_case.
The filter will now automatically rescale the parent stack into the next best power of two size. With this, even non-power-of-two sources can now be mipmapped semi-correctly.
To accurately support mipmapping even for npot textures, this feature would have to be built into OBS and OBS would have to stop refusing to create textures with mipmaps that are not a power of two in size. Almost all common Direct3D 11 (except Intel) are capable of npot mipmaps at full speed, while OpenGL usually depends on the GPU and Driver used.
