DC "fix": "Better" watchdogThread. Need to be tested on others PC specs. Everything works with for me (nice Q6600 + 8800GT owners :p ). We may have to put some hardcoded value in GUI for helping debug on other PCs. If it doesn't work and if someone have time, tweak a bit the threshold "FourMsCount" in "GPWatchdogThread" and let me know.

// Only 3 choices IMHO for a correct emulated load balancing in DC mode:
// - make our own GP watchdog hack that can lock CPU if GP too slow.
// - hack directly something in PPC timings (dunno how)
// - boost GP so we can consider it as infinitly fast compared to CPU.
// - boost GP so we can consider it as infinitely fast compared to CPU.
// * raise ReadIdle/CmdIdle flags and observe behaviour of MP1 & ZTP (at least)
// * investigate VI and PI for fixing the DC ZTP bug.
// * Clean useless comments and debug stuff in Read16, Write16, GatherPipeBursted when sync will be fixed for DC
