Which component should be improved?

Expected result

Every possible setting exists and works. Don't worry about the visuals yet unless it really bothers you.

We should also make snd_hrtf_async toggleable in the audio settings. Maybe the option should be Threaded Audio or something

[craftablescience]

Thanks

Gel color customization also needs to go somewhere, along with multiplayer portals. Maybe have a separate "customization" tab for those.

[craftablescience]

Gel color setting will be tricky if its ever possible to register custom gels, I'll just cover the stock gels for now.
Also renaming the "Gameplay" category to "Customization" because it makes more sense

[vrad-exe]

Probably should also have a tab for controller settings, unless that's all handled through Steam Input now?

[craftablescience]

Either that or it's a part of the Edit Keybinds panel in p2, honestly didn't check, its probably in there

[vrad-exe]

We should also re-add portal stencil depth and portal funneling to the settings menu like in P1. Stencil depth could go under graphics settings, not sure about portal funneling.
