Tim Allen bf90bdfcc8 Update to v101r31 release.

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.

Tim Allen bab2ac812a Update to v101r24 release.

Changelog:

  - SMS: extended bus mapping of in/out ports: now decoding them fully
    inside ms/bus
  - SMS: moved Z80 disassembly code from processor/z80 to ms/cpu
    (cosmetic)
  - SMS: hooked up non-functional silent PSG sample generation, so I can
    cap the framerate at 60fps
  - SMS: hooked up the VDP main loop: 684 clocks/scanline, 262
    scanlines/frame (no PAL support yet)
  - SMS: emulated the VDP Vcounter and Hcounter polling ... hopefully
    it's right, as it's very bizarre
  - SMS: emulated VDP in/out ports (data read, data write, status read,
    control write, register write)
  - SMS: decoding and caching all VDP register flags (variable names
    will probably change)
  - nall: \#undef IN on Windows port (prevent compilation warning on
    processor/z80)

Watching Sonic the Hedgehog, I can definitely see some VDP register
writes going through, which is a good sign.

Probably the big thing that's needed before I can get enough into the
VDP to start showing graphics is interrupt support. And interrupts are
never fun to figure out :/

What really sucks on this front is I'm flying blind on the Z80 CPU core.
Without a working VDP, I can't run any Z80 test ROMs to look for CPU
bugs. And the CPU is certainly too buggy still to run said test ROM
anyway. I can't find any SMS emulators with trace logging from reset.
Such logs vastly accelerate tracking down CPU logic bugs, so without
them, it's going to take a lot longer.

Tim Allen 0b70a01b47 Update to v101r10 release.

Changelog:

  - 68K: MOVEQ is 8-bit signed
  - 68K: disassembler was print EOR for OR instructions
  - 68K: address/program-counter indexed mode had the signed-word/long
    bit backward
  - 68K: ADDQ/SUBQ #n,aN always works in long mode; regardless of size
  - 68K→VDP DMA needs to use `mode.bit(0)<<22|dmaSource`; increment by
    one instead of two
  - Z80: added registers and initial two instructions
  - MS: hooked up enough to load and start running games
      - Sonic the Hedgehog can execute exactly one instruction... whoo.
