OSX has an annoying feature called "BeamSync", which on later versions
of OSX is always on. For whatever reason, Apple devs decided to force
this feature to always be on, so applications must always render with
v-sync regardless of what they set their swap interval to.
This issue would cause syncing to the vertical refresh for each
additional active display, and wouldn't allow rendering above the
current refresh rate. This caused major rendering stalls and prevented
video frame timing from being accurate.
This fixes the issue by using an undocumented set of functions to
disable BeamSync. Note that because this is an undocumented method of
working around the issue, its existence cannot be guaranteed. If the
functions no longer exist for whatever reason, it will safely do
nothing.
These functions match the known obs locales with the system supplied
locales and return a vector of possible locales with the highest
priority locale first
On windows this will return the documents\video directory, but on
linux/mac it'll just return $HOME for the time being because I don't
know if there really are any other appropriate adequate paths to use.
Perhaps someone else can be willing to fill this in if they wish.
