cristian64 f5012ef457 Core/HW: Add Broadband Adapter (IPC). ...

This is a hassle-free BBA option intended for local play with multiple
Dolphin instances running *in the same system*. After selecting
**Broadband Adapter (IPC)** in the **SP1** slot in the GameCube section
in the settings, games that support LAN play will be able to discover
each other, without requiring third-party software or relatively complex
TAP setups.

The implementation is based on cpp-ipc, a high-performance inter-process
communication library that uses shared memory as transport layer.

Supported platforms are:

- [x] Linux
- [x] Windows
- [ ] macOS (cpp-ipc does not support this platform)
- [ ] FreeBSD (cpp-ipc does not support this platform)
- [ ] Android (cpp-ipc needs some adjustments; while it could work,
  launching two Dolphin instances within the same Android system may be
  both challenging and impractical)
