Changelog:
- WS: fixed 8-bit sign-extended imul (fixes Star Hearts completely,
Final Fantasy world map)
- WS: fixed rcl/rcr carry shifting (fixes Crazy Climber, others)
- WS: added sound DMA emulation (Star Hearts rain sound for one example)
- WS: added OAM caching, but it's forced every line for now because
otherwise there are too many sprite glitches
- WS: use headphoneEnable bit instead of speakerEnable bit (fixes muted
audio in games)
- WS: various code cleanups (I/O mapping, audio channel naming, etc)
The hypervoice channel doesn't sound all that great just yet. But I'm
not sure how it's supposed to sound. I need a better example of some
more complex music.
What's left are some unknown register status bits (especially in the
sound area), keypad interrupts, RTC emulation, CPU prefetch emulation.
And then it's all just bugs. Lots and lots of bugs that need to be
fixed.
EDIT: oops, bad typo in the code.
ws/ppu/ppu.cpp line 20: change range(256) to range(224).
Also, delete the r.speed stuff from channel5.cpp to make the rain sound
a lot better in Star Hearts. Apparently that's outdated and not what the
bits really do.

Changelog:
- sfc/ppu/sprite updated to use new .bit(s) functions; masked sizes
better; added valid flags instead of using magic numbers
- ws/ppu updates to use new .bit(s) functions
- ws/ppu: added line compare interrupt support
- added ws/eeprom; emulation of WS/WSC internal EEPROM and cartridge
EEPROM (1kbit - 16kbit supported)
- added basic read/write handlers for remaining WS/WSC PPU registers
WS EEPROM emulation is basically a direct copy of trap15's code. Still
some unknown areas in there, but hopefully it's enough to get further
into games that depend on EEPROM support. Note that you'll have to
manually add the eeprom line to the manifest for now, as icarus doesn't
know how to detect EEPROM/sizes yet.
I figured the changes to the SNES PPU sprites would slow it down a tad,
but it actually sped it up. Most of the impact from the integer classes
are gone now.

So, this WIP starts work on something new for higan. Obviously, I can't
keep it a secret until it's ready, because I want to continue daily WIP
releases, and of course, solicit feedback as I go along.
