[REUSE] is a specification that aims at making file copyright
information consistent, so that it can be both human and machine
readable. It basically requires that all files have a header containing
copyright and licensing information. When this isn't possible, like
when dealing with binary assets, generated files or embedded third-party
dependencies, it is permitted to insert copyright information in the
`.reuse/dep5` file.
Oh, and it also requires that all the licenses used in the project are
present in the `LICENSES` folder, that's why the diff is so huge.
This can be done automatically with `reuse download --all`.
The `reuse` tool also contains a handy subcommand that analyzes the
project and tells whether or not the project is (still) compliant,
`reuse lint`.
Following REUSE has a few advantages over the current approach:
- Copyright information is easy to access for users / downstream
- Files like `dist/license.md` do not need to exist anymore, as
`.reuse/dep5` is used instead
- `reuse lint` makes it easy to ensure that copyright information of
files like binary assets / images is always accurate and up to date
To add copyright information of files that didn't have it I looked up
who committed what and when, for each file. As yuzu contributors do not
have to sign a CLA or similar I couldn't assume that copyright ownership
was of the "yuzu Emulator Project", so I used the name and/or email of
the commit author instead.

* this resolves the todo items in the CMakeLists.txt
* a version requirement check for ffmpeg is added to catch issues early
* for future-proof reasons, nasm/yasm is now only required when build on
x86/AMD64 systems
On Linux, due to the way we include SDL2 as a submodule, it makes it
difficult for us to specify which SDL_config.h we intended to include.
Before, CMake would default to the dummy one included with SDL and
ignore the generated one.
This tells CMake to use the generated one. In addition, we define
USING_GENERATED_CONFIG_H to throw an error in case the dummy config is
used by accident. Fixes Vulkan not working on Linux yuzu-cmd.
