AOT Compilation Support

[CasualPokePlayer]

Something to look at wrt .NET6 (see #2261) (or more I guess really .NET 7/8). This could be required for some platforms in a moonshot future (iOS/iPad/Apple TV support, lol) and very good for a WASM build due to performance. Perhaps this would be more performant for us due to p/invoke often being used for emulation?

This however has several limitations:

• Requires trimming
  • see Trimming Support #3767
• No dynamic loading
  • Similar to the trimming limitation, but this just outright disallows dynamic loading from working at all. External Tools would have to be re-worked to not rely on .NET dynamic assembly loading at all, or simply be unavailable for use.
• No run-time code generation
  • i.e. Reflection.Emit
  • Used in SettingsUtil.cs, BinaryQuickSerializer.cs, BizInvoker.cs, BizInvokeUtilities.cs, and BizExvoker.cs.
  • SettingsUtil is probably easy enough to replace with source generators? replaced with source generator in f2a4794
  • BinaryQuickSerializer is only used in WonderSwan.IStatable.cs and probably could be easily factored out. removed in 8941bac
  • BizInvoker could probably be replaced using source generators and .NET function pointers.
  • BizExvoker is not actually used anymore (remnant of C# waterbox days), so that can just be removed. removed in 5c475ce
  • NLua also uses it technically, but the code is unused and can be easily removed. removed in 5824466

Various other limitations also exist but don't appear to apply to BizHawk (or are just implied by trimming requirement).
