This thread pool can take large or small tasks and as such alleviates the burden of having a thread per source. Particularly for large setups, this drastically reduces the number of threads running in the background waiting for work.
This is a massive improvement to stability and safety when using the plugin, as all exceptions should now no longer be leaked into C controlled code, which can't actually handle exceptions at all.
Warnings fixed:
* Potentially throwing exception during library load.
* Possibly throwing function passed to C.
* Statement does nothing.
* Variable is initialized but not referenced.
* Variable overloads variable in parent scope.
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.
