This prevents REAPER from crashing when removing the last instance of a
plugin and then readding it. REAPER doesn't unload the module even after
it removes its last plugin factory instance. This means that before this
the plugin factory would be freed but we still had a seemingly valid
pointer to it that we would try to access.
As it turns out there are only two or three functions where we can do
this. It also breaks logging, and this function will probably only be
called once anyways. More consistency is always better.
This is quite a huge refactor, but note everything is consistent (and
we're going to need one or two more of these `Vst3*Proxy` objects).
Right now nothing extends `IHostApplication`, but this way it will be
trivial to add support for more host context interfaces.
We can now use implement all VST3 plugin interfaces through this class,
check whether the object from the plugin also supports these classes,
and then conditionally allow casting to the supported classes. This
should give us a one-to-one proxy of the original object.
Directly serializing and deserializing into objects was and more
boilerplate heavy (since we now need two implementations even though we
only use one), and also much less flexible because we can't wrap
payloads in structs or provide optional values that way.
