Starting with macOS 13 the VT hardware encoder has all the capabilities
it needs for both streaming and recording, so we can start recommending
it in AutoConfig.
Certain services have custom server lits handling which I had forgotten
about, so although it would have been nice to have this refactor, we'll
have to live with relying on the plugin properties object directly for a
while.
This also reverts obsproject/obs-studio#6530 and
obsproject/obs-studio#6683 because that change depended on this
problematic refactor code.
This reverts commits:

This commit accomplishes three different things:
- Makes it much less difficult to communicate service settings
between the UI and the plugin.
- Refactors some code and makes it cleaner and easier to modify to our
needs (although there is still a lot of work to do on that front
because of heavy code duplication issues between auto-config and the
stream settings pane).
- Significantly reatly reduces the number of times the json file has to
be opened and parsed.
This also kind of denotes a bit of a failure on the plugin communication
aspect. The properties system is too limited and jank for a lot of
things we would like to do at times.
(Jim) Allows the ability to get a link from the service's settings about
a specific service selection the user chooses and display it as a "More
Info" button that the user can click to find out more information about
that particular service.
Adds a virtual camera button to the main user interface. If virtual
camera is not installed, it will not add the button. On Windows, it
detects whether the virtual camera filters are properly registered, and
will only add the button if the virtual camera filter is confirmed
registered.
Also adds a virtual camera option to the auto-configuration wizard,
which will just simply set the user's resolution/scale to 1920x1080 at
30 FPS.

The wizard has a stream link URL as well, adding the button in the
wizard to match. Additionally, fixing a few errors in the UI layout
and spacing where items were not padded.
Code submissions have continually suffered from formatting
inconsistencies that constantly have to be addressed. Using
clang-format simplifies this by making code formatting more consistent,
and allows automation of the code formatting so that maintainers can
focus more on the code itself instead of code formatting.
Adds the ability to connect/login to an account via the settings and
auto-configuration dialogs. Checks registered Auth objects, and if the
Auth object matches the currently selected service in the settings
window or auto-configuration dialog, will display "connect account"
buttons for the user to be able to click (which are optional, they can
still use stream keys if they'd prefer).
Makes it so that services can have custom handling on a per-service
basis. The bottom part of the service pane is now a stacked widget
which can now be customized for different types of services
(particularly OAuth services).
The "Custom" service has been moved, and is now an item called "Custom"
in the "Services" combo box. This simplifies the stream page of
auto-configuration and removes an unnecessary widget. Overall a minor
but nice slimline/improvement on user experience.
The radio buttons had been changed so "Streaming" would be selected by
default, but it only sets the wizard's "type" to streaming if the user
actually clicks the radio button themselves manually, so it would stay
set to "Invalid" by mistake, causing settings to not be applied.
The auto-configuration wizard is designed to allow first-time or
novice/uneducated users or to set up video and encoding settings in a
very quick and easy way. It'll automatically perform a bandwidth test,
and/or test the user's video settings to determine the most ideal
settings for streaming and recording (assuming a 1-pc setup).
