## Description of change
* when custom DLLs are detected (`d3d9.dll`) print out some basic data
from the PE header
* for our own NVIDIA DLL stubs, add manifest files to identify ourselves
* as a bonus, when DLL hooks are loaded from `-k`, print DLL info there
as well
This is mainly to detect when DXVK is in use.
Show better warning message when `ea3-config.xml` / `eamuse-config.xml`
is missing. Right now we just say `failed to load prop/eamuseconfig.xml`
which is really confusing when people look for `eamuse-config.xml` that
never existed in the first place.

When X or Y axis is being bound to any button labeled `TT` or `Knob` or
`VOL-`, show a warning and ask if the user really meant to do that,
encouraging them to use the Analog tab instead.
* add `-card0` `-card1` options at the top of Cards tab to clearly
indicate that they take precedence over card files
* reorganize UI / clean up
* remove ability to directly edit the contents of `card0.txt` /
`card1.txt` as that wasn't very intuitive; instead, encourage users to
use overrides directly or use an external text editor (`Edit` button
opens notepad)

## Description of change
Move `dirs_created` flag assignment before `dir_create_recursive` calls
in `CreateFileW_Hook` to prevent stack overflow. `dir_create_recursive`
calls `_wstat64` (ucrtbase), which internally calls `CreateFileW`,
re-entering the hook before the flag is set. GCC 13 preserved the source
order, but GCC 15 reorders the flag store after the function calls,
causing infinite recursion.
Note: I'm not fully confident the root cause is specific to GCC version
differences. Also, I cannot determine whether this directory creation
hook is truly necessary. Without these directories the game boots but
quizzes won't load, making gameplay impossible. It may be worth removing
this hook entirely, but for now this fix is needed to prevent the crash.

Implements #579.
## Description of change
### Controller Presets
Add a new "Presets" tab to spicecfg that allows users to save, load, and
manage controller binding presets.
#### Save Presets
- Capture all current button, analog, and light bindings as a preset
- "Assign Labels" dialog prompts the user to name each source device
(e.g. "Player 1", "Player 2") before saving
- Device IDs are replaced with these labels, making presets portable
across different machines
- Presets are stored in `%APPDATA%/spice2x/spicetools_presets.xml`
#### Load / Apply Presets
- Preset list shows name, type (Built-in / User), and binding counts
- Apply dialog maps each preset source label to a connected device or
keyboard
- Bindings are applied per-source, supporting multi-device setups (e.g.
two PHOENIXWAN controllers)
#### Edit / Delete Presets
- Rename source labels in saved presets (propagates to all bindings)
- Delete user presets
#### Built-in Presets
- PHOENIXWAN preset for Beatmania IIDX: P1/P2 buttons (1-7, Start,
EFFECT, VEFX), turntable analogs, and button lights
## Testing
* [x] Open spicecfg, go to Buttons tab, verify Presets section loads
* [x] Verify PHOENIXWAN builtin preset appears for Beatmania IIDX
* [x] Save a new preset: confirm "Assign Labels" dialog appears with
device descriptions as defaults
* [x] Apply a preset: confirm source column shows labels, popup does not
shrink
* [x] Edit labels on a saved preset: confirm rename propagates to all
bindings
* [x] Hover over a device source tooltip: confirm vKey shows as number

https://github.com/spice2x/spice2x.github.io/issues/582
## Description of change
When using the SpiceAPI `capture` endpoint for taking screenshots, if
you call multiple times in a row in a short period, there's a good
chance for duplicate / stale data to be returned, and you end up with
multiple identical screenshots. This is due to a race condition in the
graphics capture pipeline because the capture data is never reset to
null between invocations.
`graphics_capture_receive_jpeg()` never resets the capture buffer's data
pointer to `nullptr` after consuming it. The condition variable wait
predicate checks `data != nullptr`, so subsequent calls find the
predicate already satisfied and return immediately with the previous
frame instead of waiting for the render thread to produce a fresh one.
Fix: null out `capture.data` after copying the shared_ptr (which keeps
the pixel data alive via refcount) but before releasing the lock.
## Testing
Tested this locally and invoked the capture API 10+ times in a row
without any duplicates. Previously, every other invocation would be a
duplicate, basically.

Use `Clear All` when there are no defaults, and `Reset All` when there
are defaults.
Clearing analogs should reset values to 0.5, not 0.
## Link to GitHub Issue or related Pull Request, if one exists
#576
## Description of change
Add `Reset All` buttons to these tabs which clears out bindings to none
/ default.
For keypads, introduce a special `Use Preset` button which lets users
pick between numpad and top row number keys.
Update UI-visible string used for vKeys, especially the numpad ones
(e.g., `.` is now `Numpad .` to distinguish from the regular `.`
period).
Breaking change: if the user never had `P1 Keypad 00` set, the default
will change from `Enter` to `Numpad -` since both enter keys trigger the
same. This will affect a small number of popn/ddr players. They can just
change it back.

## Description of change
* Add binds for Nostroller
* Update matching logic to ignore common device-side output names like
"Button" "Light" and "LED" (e.g., `Button 1` from a device now matches
on `P1 1`)
* For RGB matching, in addition to `Light R` on the device also try
`LightR` (Nostroller needs this)
* Add a confirmation dialog for `Clear All`
* Address minor bugs
## Testing
Seems to work on arcin, and Nostroller. Still need to retest Faucetwo.
Hopefully I didn't break Phoenixwan.

## Description of change
I've always been annoyed with how long it takes to bind controller
lights, made a few improvements
1) added a button+window for automatically matching device lights to
game lights with the same name
2) added button(s) to cycle through all bound lights to visually confirm
location/function
3) added button to clear all bound lights
4) split SDVX lights into sections (Buttons, Valkyrie, Nemsys, Other)
with formatting, sorted based on current game spec
## Testing
Tested with multiple games and controllers (Faucetwo, custom con) and
matching always works if the descriptor strings are labeled correctly.
Not every controller labels their LEDs the same was as spice, but for
those that do this saves a ton of time clicking every box and testing
one by one.
The SDVX table split/formatting is important because myself (and several
friends) have tried binding to Wing/Controller lights and wondered why
they weren't working in game, when they are legacy Nemsys lights instead
of the strip lights handled by Valk/bi2x. I separated the sections
visually, with tooltips, plus sort the two sections based on active spec
to further minimize the chance of someone trying to use the wrong lights
for their game.

* Show more descriptive error when connection fails (for

* ensure patches are reloaded even if importing fails, since existing
checkboxes get reset
Logic was wrong; caught by compiling with a newer clang and it raising a
warning about the useless expression (since the second clause always
eval'd as true).
Changed to the intended functionality, but I have no ddr3 with p3io so I
can't test it. But it seems nobody ever really noticed this.
- Allow overriding the toolchains so I can avoid changes in my working
tree
- Squash warnings that the deps use, can't just add them as PRIVATE
compile flags because it's in the headers :(
- Squash those d3d9 warnings with a suppression instead of trying to
rewrite 400 lines of code
- Include order and forward decls were breaking button.h because a
declared but not defined struct can't be initiated (honestly this file
was cooked, crazy include order).
- `MAXINT` is GCC specific, `INT_MAX` is portable.
- InterlockedDecrement takes a LONG, not ULONG
- an imgui printf-style call using a direct string instead of %s (let's
ignore the fact that it's actually safe based on how the str is
constructed)
- missing `override` on a virtual subclass
- `CALLBACK` on a lambda threw me for a loop, but I believe moving it
after the arg list is the correct approach (see if it builds on gcc I
guess)
- `std::result_of` was removed in C++20, which the project is built with

Fixes#563
## Description of change
When buttons are presented as NotRange and instead an array of single
buttons, we are calling `HidP_GetUsages` expecting at most one result
back, but in reality we need to expect all possible buttons on that
usage page since `HidP_GetUsages` returns all buttons in the usage page
+ link collection which would be the entire array of buttons - see
documentation for `HidP_GetUsages` on MSDN.

## Description of change
Introduce a new modal dialog for picking out some of the options to
improve UX.
Implemented a few for now:
1. UI for picking ASIO drivers from a list (for -iidxasio, -sdvxasio,
-asioconvert, etc)
2. Button to generate card numbers for -card0 and card1
3. Processor Affinity selector (very similar to what's in Windows Task
Manager, list of checkboxes)
4. file selector (file open dialog for various file path overrides like
log file)
5. folder selector (folder override)
I wrote a selector for COM ports as well but how we use the value was
inconsistent (\\\\.\\COMx vs. COMx) and didn't see a huge point in it so
I didn't check it in.

## Description of change
Deprecate backend conversion options and replace with one unified option
for enabling WASAPI exclusive conversion to ASIO.
The new option takes in a string (ASIO driver name) and when filled out,
it automatically enables the ASIO backend.
This is to avoid confusion that was caused by the previous option - the
fact that it was split into two (one to enable the conversion, another
to optionally pick which ASIO driver to use) and that user needed to
specify an integer as opposed to the driver name.
## Testing
Tested on IIDX33. Old options should continue to work.

Allow user to specify a custom resolution for the sub monitor, in

## Description of change
use case: user with two ICCA readers in a daisy chain configuration (as
is wired in og IIDX/DDR) wanted to play DDR using their existing
equipment.
Existing `reader/` implementation is only designed for a single reader
per com port vs two readers on one daisy chained com port. This can be
implemented and improved at a future date.
Due to time constraints `eamio-icca.dll` from btools did support both
wavepass and slotted in a daisy chain configuration, and spice does
support bt5api calls.
However, the implementation was not sufficient to allow use of both
modules correctly, often stalling, not did it allow the ability to eject
the card.
I have cleaned up the implementation such that it matches the btools
`eamiotest` implementation and allows the user to use decimal to eject
the card as desired.
As well as properly staging the requests for state of the two individual
readers, like `eamio-icca` expects.
## Testing
Tested with both wavepass and slotted (ICCA and ICCB) modules and in
combination with released `eamio-icca.dll` binaries from btools 5.49 as
released by their github using `MDX` as a test subject.
Works as expected and allows end users to use real readers (if they have
them) as virtual readers in spice's emulation layer.
