- Low latency vsync buffering change, selected buffering mode can be modified now.
* - No buffering is same as previously

"* Fixed range check on TryParse() for u32, again.
The code from 748be364e5ee incorrectly accepted -0x100000000 on x86_64.
Also if ERANGE is returned by strtoul(), reject the parsed value regardless of what that value is. This fixes invalid values being returned when compiling with Visual C++. Thanks to "cotton" for testing this."
