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 Apparently that's outdated and not what the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.

This is a few days old, but oh well.
This WIP changes nall,hiro,ruby,icarus back to (u)int(8,16,32,64)_t.
I'm slowly pushing for (u)int(8,16,32,64) to use my custom
Integer<Size>/Natural<Size> classes instead. But it's going to be one
hell of a struggle to get that into higan.

All 256 instructions implemented fully. Fixed a major bug with
instructions that both read and write to ModRM with displacement.
Riviera now runs into an infinite loop ... possibly crashed, possibly
waiting on interrupts or in to return something. Added a bunch of PPU
settings registers, but nothing's actually rendering with them yet.
244 of 256 opcodes implemented now, although the interrupt triggering
portions are missing from them still. Much better handling of prefixes
now.
I definitely have a newfound hatepreciation for x86 now >_>

26 hours in, 173 instructions implemented. Although the four segment
prefix opcodes don't actually do anything yet. There's less than 256
actual instructions on the 80186, not sure of the exact count.
Gunpey gets around ~8,200 instructions in before hitting an unsupported
opcode (loop). Riviera goes off the rails on a retf and ends up
executing an endless stream of bad opcodes in RAM =( Both games hammer
the living shit out of the in/out ports pretty much immediately.

Man, the 80186 is taking a lot longer to implement than I thought it
would. So far I'm 18 hours into this emulator. Whereas I had Super Mario
Bros fully playable (no sound) in 12 hours for the NES >_>
I refactored all the byte/word variant functions to single functions
that take a size parameter. Cuts the amount of code in half.
Also implemented repz/repnz + movsb/movsw, so Riviera now gets 299
instructions in before dying. Nobody really bothers to explain how the
CPU actually implements these instructions, but I think I have it right:
ignore non-string opcodes that follow rep, invoke the string operations
inside the rep opcodes to prevent interrupts from triggering between the
two (which will be even more fun for segment selector overrides ...)
The next opcode needed is 0xC7, which ... throws ModRM on its head. In
this mode, ModRM is only used to determine the target operand (and it
doesn't use the middle bits for that at all), and the source is an
immediate that follows it. Gonna have to waste a few more hours thinking
about how best to handle that.
Also, disabled HiDPI for higan as well on OS X.
byuu says:
More V30MZ implemented, a lot more to go.
icarus now supports importing WS and WSC games. It expects them to have
the correct file extension, same for GB and GBC.
> Ugh, apparently HiDPI icarus doesn't let you press the check boxes.
I set the flag value in the plist to false for now. Forgot to do it for
higan, but hopefully I won't forget before release.
