By implementing MetaEngine::buildEngineOptionsWidget, engines can
instantiate a container widget that will be shown in the Engine tab of
the edit game dialog. The default implementation retains the existing
behavior and shows the extra GUI options.
Game controller input is now enabled whenever a compatible device is
connected. The keymapper's keymaps are refreshed when a joystick is added
or removed.
Fixes#10366.
When returning to the launcher with dynamic plugins enabled, the config manager
is re-created, invalidating the pointers the keymapper keeps to the
configuration domains.
Fixes#11348.
Previously backend defaults where added to the keymap defaults.
However, it became apparent backends need to change the default bindings
to resolve conflicts.
When the plugin-engine mapping is not cached in the configuration file,
we were not scanning all the plugins to establish the mapping.
This is a regression from commit: e2d91258b7bfb989dc099f516bb31ceb44554529
This commit reverts the offending commit and implements a proper fix for
the case where there are no dynamic plugins.
Fixes#11300.
The engineId, gameId and description come from static data in the game
engines. When the game engines are compiled as dynamic plugins, the QGD
structure may outlive the engine plugin. Making a copy ensures the data
remains available.
Fixes#11292.
Qualified game names have the following form: engineId:gameId.
Unqualified game names are still supported as long as they are not
ambiguous. However they are considered deprecated and are no longer
displayed by the --list-games command.
The engine ID identifies which engine should be used to launch the target.
Also remove the 'single ID' system. Different games from engines that used
that system now have different game IDs.

* The list of candidates now includes unknown variants. When an unknown
variant is selected, the unknown game dialog is shown.
* On the unknown game dialog, users are given the choice to add the game
when that is possible, or to cancel.
The goal of those changes is to make the unknown game dialog less
confusing for users, especially when both known and unknown games
variants are found.
