replace efb to ram implementation by a hybrid approach.
explanation:
when copying from efb to texture, instead of make a copy to a texture or to the ram, copy the data to both, in hi quality to the texture and in native quality to the ram.
then instead of re-decoding the data from ram (very slow) use the data in the texture.
to improve this even more, test if the cpu has modified the data in the ram copy, if so, update the texture in memory and mark it as dynamic to avoid redundant work in future frames.
having all this implemented this is what is archived:
sms: full quality with scaled efb copies and fully functional goop cleaning :)
ztp: efb to texture speed with full map support.
nsmbw: this is a hard to emulate game, as it make a lot of shading and texture modification in cpu. it only have 35 fps in my system with new efb to ram but is 10 fps faster than normal efb to ram.
this game also show me another unimplemented feature, copy efb to multiple textures at the same time (is used to animate coins and other things in the world).
this is a remaining todo in efb to texture.
a lot of games should improve, so please test and let me know any regresion caused by this commit.
if everyone likes this the next step is, implement efb to multilpe textures and merge efb to ram and efb to texture.
then port to the other plugins.
enjoy.

i made this changes trying to found the origin of the sps in zww and sms but no look so far.
the code is looking nice so commit it

* Added JIT breakpoints functionality
* Added a menu option to disable the JIT block cache
* Enabled single stepping in JIT mode as a run-time option (automatically enabled when the debugger is used)
* Enabled the missing JIT Off menu options
* Removed the JIT Unlimited Cache hack

For everyone having black screens on Windows: Try switching off MSAA, it seems to be broken (at least for me)

Update Issue 2508
This should take care about the black screen. Please open a new issue for other problems that may arise.

as an accident of implementation. On other platforms, an explicit call
to wiiuse_connect is required.

Treat external data (configuration file and device names) as 8-bit data.
Character set mapping is not ideal, but at least such names can be used.

return to the old values in constants in pixelshader, the old values give mi 3 or 4 fps more,(maybe some kind of compiler optimization) in some games and with the current algorithm i notice no difference with this values, please report any problem.
optimizes SSAA to make it a little faster and, the quality should be the same but with a little speedup.
change the way the frame is processed depending is xfb is enabled or not to make this a little faster.
please test and report any problem

Add some useful checking to J_CC/SetJumpTarget.
Refactor increment/decrement and reuse code with increase/decrease.

1 - Optimize pixelshadergen to avoid redundant register overflow math, with this if a game don't need this will be not applied.
this must bring some fill rate back and improve speed a little in fill rate limited systems.
2- some corrections to vertexshadergen to avoid uninitialized texture coordinates, dono if is the correct way to fix it but t least it will make house of the dead overkill playable in dx11.
the bad thing: still missing geometri in dx9, in dx11 it works exactly as on opengl.
3 - some optimization made to improve fps a little wih the latests changes made to fifo.
* back to the original code in beginfield as now it will work right.
* check for efb access more often as a lot of time is lost waiting for efb access
4 - apply a little fix for missing textures in nvidia opengl tanks to Wagnard28 for finding that nvidia does not like invalid shader id :)
please test for any regression

If compilation fails, rebuild the whole solution as Visual Studio struggles with the not so complex project dependencies.
ATI users still need to install the Stream SDK as it's the only way to have an OpenCL driver.
NVidia users just have to install a recent driver (version 197 is tested and working).

frameworks on OS X.
Try to be a little clearer about which configuration options apply
to which platform(s). Should pave the way slightly for win32 scons.
We have accidentally been using LUA_USE_LINUX on OS X all along.
Turns out that LUA_USE_MACOSX is for an ancient version of OS X and
LUA_USE_LINUX is a reasonable set of defaults for modern Unices, so
just keep using that.

with OpenCL will also run on 10.5 without OpenCL.
Build with OpenCL by default now, but keep the opencl build option around
until Linux also links OpenCL weakly, at which point it can go away.
Start to merge in the actions required to make the OS X application bundle
redistributable into the main build and let bundle=true be concerned only
with the optional step of creating a dmg.
Some people are building binary snapshots for OS X without applying the
install_name_tool fixups and besides, osx_make_dmg.sh doesn't fully handle
the internal dependencies between the wx libraries, so we need to be rid
of any external dependencies by the time "scons bundle=false ." finishes.
Ideally we should just use static builds of the wx libraries, but the flat
namespace used by Objective-C for anything other than normally linked
dylibs (sadly not dlopen'ed dylibs) makes that difficult because both the
main binary and the plugins have wx linked in without any symbol ordering.
TBD: Either do automatic install_name_tool fixups for both the main binary
and the wx dylibs or find a workaround for the flat namespace problem.
