Update to bsnes v060r07 release.

Feeling amazing tonight. The low of fighting a bad cold for the past
week, blocked nose, bloody lips and wrist pain combined can't hold me
down.

Two years of searching and I finally found the Midnight Panic EP, and
it's amazing. And from this WIP forward, bsnes now uses C++0x instead
of C++03. I feel like I've been given this new amazing language, and
there's all these wonderful new possibilities for cleaning up and
simplifying code.

foreach is the most amazing concept. The only reason I've made it this
long without it is because I never got to use it. You will pry this
one from my cold, dead hands. Already applied it to the cartridge and
memory classes. It's insane.

Before:
    for(unsigned i = 0; i < memory::wram.size(); i++) memory::wram[i]
    = config.cpu.wram_init_value;
    for(unsigned i = 0; i < cartridge.mapping.size(); i++) {
    Cartridge::Mapping &m = cartridge.mapping[i];


After:
    foreach(n, memory::wram) n = config.cpu.wram_init_value;
    foreach(m, cartridge.mapping) {


Before:
    for(unsigned i = 0; i < 32; i++) {
    char value[4];
    sprintf(value, "%.2x", shahash[i]);
    strcat(hash, value);
    }


After:
    foreach(n, shahash) hash << string::printf("%.2x", n);


And that's just the first thing! So many things I can do now. Can't
wait to come up with uses for all the new features to simplify code
even more.
- auto type inheritance
- variadic templates to nuke the last vestiges of va_list and its
associated horrors
- strongly typed enums (no more enum Mode { ModeOfRedundancyMode }
shit. enum class Mode : unsigned { Normal, BSX };
- _real_ static assertions with actual error messages instead of 40
pages of template errors
- default templates parameters to template functions (but still no
function partial template specialization, grrr)
- property class can be implemented natively without having to trick
GCC into using template friend classes
- rvalue references will allow my string class and such to implement
move semantics, no more useless copying
- uniform list initializers, lstring foo = { "a", "b", "c", ... };

And that's just what's there now, it's only half-way done. The
completed support will be even more awesome:
- lambda functions
- nullptr
- class variable initialization in the header instead of needing
constructors
- native functors to replace nall::function with
- string literals in UTF-8
- native multi-threading support
- and so much more
