The biggest change was improving WonderSwan emulation. With help from
trap15, I tracked down a bug where I was checking the wrong bit for
reverse DMA transfers. Then I also emulated VTOTAL to support variable
refresh rate. Then I improved HyperVoice emulation which should be
unsigned samples in three of four modes. That got Fire Lancer running
great. I also rewrote the disassembler. The old one disassembled many
instructions completely wrong, and deviated too much from any known x86
syntax. I also emulated some of the quirks of the V30 (two-byte POP into
registers fails, SALC is just XLAT mirrored, etc) which probably don't
matter unless someone tries to run code to verify it's a NEC CPU and not
an Intel CPU, but hey, why not?
I also put more work into the MSX skeleton, but it's still just a
skeleton with no real emulation yet.

I've added tool tips to hiro for Windows, GTK, and Qt. I'm unsure how to
add them for Cocoa. I wasted am embarrassing ~14 hours implementing tool
tips from scratch on Windows, because the `TOOLTIPS_CLASS` widget just
absolutely refused to show up, no matter what I tried. As such, they're
not quite 100% native, but I would really appreciate any patch
submissions to help improve my implementation.
I added tool tips to all of the confusing settings in bsnes. And of
course, for those of you who don't like them, there's a configuration
file setting to turn them off globally.
I also improved Mega Drive handling of the Game Genie a bit, and
restructured the way the Settings class works in bsnes.
Starting now, I'm feature-freezing bsnes and higan. From this point
forward:
- polishing up and fixing bugs caused by the ruby/hiro changes
- adding DRC to XAudio2, and maybe exclusive mode to WGL
- correcting FEoEZ (English) to load and work again out of the box
Once that's done, a final beta of bsnes will go out, I'll fix any
reported bugs that I'm able to, and then v107 should be ready. This time
with higan being functional, but marked as v107 beta. v108 will restore
higan to production status again, alongside bsnes.

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.
