Tim Allen 393c2395bb Update to v106r48 release.

The problems with the Windows and Qt4 ports have all been resolved,
although there's a fairly gross hack on a few Qt widgets to not destruct
once Application::quit() is called to avoid a double free crash (I'm
unsure where Qt is destructing the widgets internally.) The Cocoa port
compiles again at least, though it's bound to have endless problems. I
improved the Label painting in the GTK ports, which fixes the background
color on labels inside TabFrame widgets.

I've optimized the Makefile system even further.

I added a "redo state" command to bsnes, which is created whenever you
load the undo state. There are also hotkeys for both now, although I
don't think they're really something you want to map hotkeys to.

I moved the nall::Locale object inside hiro::Application, so that it can
be used to translate the BrowserDialog and MessageDialog window strings.

I improved the Super Game Boy emulation of `MLT_REQ`, fixing Pokemon
Yellow's custom border and probably more stuff.

Lots of other small fixes and improvements. Things are finally stable
once again after the harrowing layout redesign catastrophe.

Errata:

  - ICD::joypID should be set to 3 on reset(). joypWrite() may as well
    take uint1 instead of bool.
  - hiro/Qt: remove pWindow::setMaximumSize() comment; found a
    workaround for it
  - nall/GNUmakefile: don't set object.path if it's already set (allow
    overrides before including the file)

Changelog:

  - Emulator::Interface::videoResolution() -\> VideoResolution renamed
    to videoInformation() -\> VideoInformation
  - added double VideoInformation::refreshRate
  - higan: added `binary := (application|library)` — set this to
    `library` to produce a dynamic link library
  - higan: removed `-march=native` for macOS application builds; and for
    all library builds
  - higan: removed `console` build flag; uncomment  `link += -mwindows`
    instead
  - nall/GNUmakefile: `macosx` platform renamed `macos`
      - still need to do this for nall/intrinsics.hpp
  - Game Gear: return region=NTSC as the only option, so that the system
    frequency is always set correctly
  - hiro/cocoa: fixed typo [Sintendo]
  - hiro/Windows: removed GetDpiForMonitor, as it's Windows 8+ only; DPI
    is no longer per-monitor aware
  - icarus: core Icarus class now has virtual functions for
    directory::create, <file::exists>, <file::copy>, <file::write>
  - icarus: Sufami Turbo can import save RAM files now
  - icarus: setting `ICARUS_LIBRARY` define will compile icarus without
    main(), GUI components
  - ruby/video/Direct3D: choose the current monitor instead of top-left
    monitor for fullscreen exclusive [Cydrak]
  - ruby/video/Direct3D: do not set `WS_EX_TOPMOST` on fullscreen
    exclusive window [Cydrak]
      - this isn't necessary for exclusive mode, and it just makes
        getting out of the application more difficult

Tim Allen 1ff315838e Update to v104r13 release.

Changelog:

  - nall/GNUmakefile: build=release changed to -O2, build=optimize is
    now -O3
  - hiro: added Monitor::dpi(uint index) → Position [returns logical
    DPI for x, y]
      - Position is a bad name, but dpi(monitor).(x,y)() make more sense
        than .(width,height)()
  - hiro: Position, Size, Geometry, Font changed from using signed int
    to float
  - hiro: Alignment changed from using double to float
  - hiro: added skeleton (unused) Application::scale(), setScale()
    functions

Errata:

  - hiro/cocoa's Monitor::dpi() is untested. Probably will cause issues
    with macOS' automatic scaling.
  - hiro/gtk lacks a way to get both per-monitor and per-axis (x,y) DPI
    scaling
  - hiro/qt lacks a way to get per-monitor DPI scaling (Qt 5.x has this,
    but I still use Qt 4.x)
      - and just to get global DPI, hiro/qt's DPI retrieval has to use
        undocumented functions ... fun

The goal with this WIP was basically to prepare hiro for potential
automatic scaling. It'll be extremely difficult, but I'm convinced that
it must be possible if macOS can do it.

By moving from signed integers to floats for coordinates, we can now
scale and unscale without losing precision. That of course isn't the
hard part, though. The hard part is where and how to do the scaling. In
the ideal application, hiro/core and hiro/extension will handle 100% of
this, and the per-platform hiro/(cocoa,gtk,qt,windows) will not be aware
of what's going on, but ... to even make that possible, things will need
to change in every per-platform core, eg the per-platform code will have
to call a core function to change geometry, which will know about the
scaling and unscale the values back down again.

Gonna be a lot of work, but ... it's a start.

Tim Allen 47d4bd4d81 Update to v096r01 release.

Changelog:

- restructured the project and removed a whole bunch of old/dead
  directives from higan/GNUmakefile
- huge amounts of work on hiro/cocoa (compiles but ~70% of the
  functionality is commented out)
- fixed a masking error in my ARM CPU disassembler [Lioncash]
- SFC: decided to change board cic=(411,413) back to board
  region=(ntsc,pal) ... the former was too obtuse

If you rename Boolean (it's a problem with an include from ruby, not
from hiro) and disable all the ruby drivers, you can compile an
OS X binary, but obviously it's not going to do anything.

It's a boring WIP, I just wanted to push out the project structure
change now at the start of this WIP cycle.

This will easily be the biggest diff in the history of higan. And not in
a good way.

* target-higan and target-loki have been blown away completely
* nall and ruby massively updated
* phoenix replaced with hiro (pretty near a total rewrite)
* target-higan restarted using hiro (just a window for now)
* all emulation cores updated to compile again
* installation changed to not require root privileges (installs locally)

For the foreseeable future (maybe even permanently?), the new higan UI
will only build under Linux/BSD with GTK+ 2.20+. Probably the most
likely route for Windows/OS X will be to try and figure out how to build
hiro/GTK on those platforms, as awful as that would be. The other
alternative would be to produce new UIs for those platforms ... which
would actually be a good opportunity to make something much more user
friendly.

Being that I just started on this a few hours ago, that means that for
at least a few weeks, don't expect to be able to actually play any
games. Right now, you can pretty much just compile the binary and that's
it. It's quite possible that some nall changes didn't produce
compilation errors, but will produce runtime errors. So until the UI can
actually load games, we won't know if anything is broken. But we should
mostly be okay. It was mostly just trim<1> -> trim changes, moving to
Hash::SHA256 (much cleaner), and patching some reckless memory copy
functions enough to compile.

Progress isn't going to be like it was before: I'm now dividing my time
much thinner between studying and other hobbies.

My aim this time is not to produce a binary for everyone to play games
on. Rather, it's to keep the emulator alive. I want to be able to apply
critical patches again. And I would also like the base of the emulator
to live on, for use in other emulator frontends that utilize higan.
