[common] merge RenderBackend and ShaderBackend options (#3313)

first of all it makes UI a tad bit more simple and benefits the end user second, it allows to add new backends a bit more easily and also, there was a shader backend option in android... we don't use opengl in android so may as well save ourselves the trouble, aye ![image](/attachments/c0195bca-da18-4907-9e4a-3b62c4292f1a) Signed-off-by: lizzie <lizzie@eden-emu.dev> Reviewed-on: https://git.eden-emu.dev/eden-emu/eden/pulls/3313 Reviewed-by: Maufeat <sahyno1996@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: DraVee <dravee@eden-emu.dev> Co-authored-by: lizzie <lizzie@eden-emu.dev> Co-committed-by: lizzie <lizzie@eden-emu.dev>
