- bsnes: added video filters from bsnes v082
- bsnes: added ZSNES snow effect option when games paused or unloaded
(no, I'm not joking)
- bsnes: added 7-zip support (LZMA 19.00 SDK)
[Recent higan WIPs have also mentioned bsnes changes, although the higan code
no longer includes the bsnes code. These changes include:
- higan, bsnes: added EXLOROM, EXLOROM-RAM, EXHIROM mappings
- higan, bsnes: focus the viewport after leaving fullscreen exclusive
mode
- bsnes: re-added mightymo's cheat code database
- bsnes: improved make install rules for the game and cheat code
databases
- bsnes: delayed construction of hiro::Window objects to properly show
bsnes window icons

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.

Changes to hiro will break all but the GTK target. Not that it matters
much given that the only ruby drivers that function are all on BSD
anyway.
But if you are fortunate enough to be able to run this ... you'll find
lots of polishing improvements to the bsnes GUI. I posted some
screenshots on Twitter, if anyone were interested.
