Changelog:
- fc/controller: added ControllerPort class; removed Peripherals class
- md/controller/gamepad: removed X,Y,Z buttons since this isn't a
6-button controller
- ms/controller: added ControllerPort class (not used in Game Gear
mode); removed Peripherals class
- pce/controller: added ControllerPort class; removed Peripherals
class
- processor/spc700: idle(address) is part of SMP class again, contains
flag to detect mov (x)+ edge case
- sfc/controller/super-scope,justifier: use CPU frequency instead of
hard-coding NTSC frequency
- sfc/cpu: move 4x8-bit SMP ports to SMP class
- sfc/smp: move APU RAM to DSP class
- sfc/smp: improved emulation of TEST registers bits 4-7 [information
from nocash]
- d4,d5 is RAM wait states (1,2,5,10)
- d6,d7 is ROM/IO wait states (1,2,5,10)
- sfc/smp: code cleanup to new style (order from lowest to highest
bits; use .bit(s) functions)
- sfc/smp: $00f8,$00f9 are P4/P5 auxiliary ports; named the registers
better

Changelog:
- MS, MD, PCE: remove controllers from scheduler in destructor
[hex_usr]
- PCE: no controller should return all bits set (still causing errant
key presses when swapping gamepads)
- PCE: emulate MDR for hardware I/O $0800-$17ff
- PCE: change video resolution to 1140x242
- PCE: added tertiary background Vscroll register (secondary cache)
- PCE: create classes out of VDC VRAM, SATB, CRAM for cleaner access
and I/O registers
- PCE: high bits of CRAM read should be set
- PCE: partially emulated VCE display registers: color frequency, HDS,
HDW, VDS, VDW
- PCE: 32-width sprites now split to two 16-width sprites to handle
overflow properly
- PCE: hopefully emulated sprite zero hit correctly (it's not well
documented, and not often used)
- PCE: trigger line coincidence interrupts during the previous
scanline's Hblank period
- tomoko: raise viewport from 320x240 to 326x242 to accommodate PC
Engine's max resolution
- nall: workaround for Clang compilation bug that can't figure out
that a char is an integral data type

Changelog:
- SMS: fixed controller connection bug
- SMS: fixed Z80 reset bug
- PCE: emulated HuC6280 MMU
- PCE: emulated HuC6280 RAM
- PCE: emulated HuCard ROM reading
- PCE: implemented 178 instructions
- tomoko: removed "soft reset" functionality
- tomoko: moved "power cycle" to just above "unload" option
I'm not sure of the exact number of HuC6280 instructions, but it's less
than 260.
Many of the ones I skipped are HuC6280-originals that I don't know how
to emulate just yet.
I'm also really unsure about the zero page stuff. I believe we should be
adding 0x2000 to the addresses to hit page 1, which is supposed to be
mapped to the zero page (RAM). But when I look at turboEMU's source, I
have no clue how the hell it could possibly be doing that. It looks to
be reading from page 0, which is almost always ROM, which would be ...
really weird.
I also don't know if I've emulated the T mode opcodes correctly or not.
The documentation on them is really confusing.

Changelog:
- converted Emulator::Interface::Bind to Emulator::Platform
- temporarily disabled SGB hooks
- SMS: emulated Game Gear palette (latching word-write behavior not
implemented yet)
- SMS: emulated Master System 'Reset' button, Game Gear 'Start' button
- SMS: removed reset() functionality, driven by the mappable input now
instead
- SMS: split interface class in two: one for Master System, one for
Game Gear
- SMS: emulated Game Gear video cropping to 160x144
- PCE: started on HuC6280 CPU core—so far only registers, NOP
instruction has been implemented
Errata:
- Super Game Boy support is broken and thus disabled
- if you switch between Master System and Game Gear without
restarting, bad things happen:
- SMS→GG, no video output on the GG
- GG→SMS, no input on the SMS
I'm not sure what's causing the SMS\<-\>GG switch bug, having a hard
time debugging it. Help would be very much appreciated, if anyone's up
for it. Otherwise I'll keep trying to track it down on my end.

Changelog:
- SMS: emulated the remaining 240 instructions in the (0xfd, 0xdd)
0xcb (displacement) (opcode) set
- 1/8th of these were "legal" instructions, and apparently games
use them a lot
- SMS: emulated the standard gamepad controllers
- reset button not emulated yet
The reset button is tricky. In every other case, reset is a hardware
thing that instantly reboots the entire machine.
But on the SMS, it's more like a gamepad button that's attached to the
front of the device. When you press it, it fires off a reset vector
interrupt and the gamepad polling routine lets you query the status of
the button.
Just having a reset option in the "Master System" hardware menu is not
sufficient to fully emulate the behavior. Even more annoying is that the
Game Gear doesn't have such a button, yet the core information structs
aren't flexible enough for the Master System to have it, and the Game
Gear to not have it, in the main menu. But that doesn't matter anyway,
since it won't work having it in the menu for the Master System.
So as a result, I'm going to have to have a new "input device" called
"Hardware" that has the "Reset" button listed under there. And for the
sake of consistency, I'm not sure if we should treat the other systems
the same way or not :/
