Dual Core sync fix.
When the FIFO is processing data we must not advance the cpu cycles in CoreTiming because in this way the VI will be desynchronized. So, We are waiting until the FIFO finish and while we process only the events required by the FIFO.
This should fix Issue 2072 .
This affect to all games in dual core mode.
Please, You can test all games with VPS limiter auto, 60, 50 depending of the game and compare with prev revision.
For example now NSMB in the video Intro has 60 fps (prev 30 fps) :D or SMG does't need anymore FPS Limitter Hack to get 55-60 fps
Beside the slowdowns now are more softly and the fps more stables because the VI sync is almost perfect.
The Core Timing and Fifo modifications are delicated. Please report if this hang any game. Don't forget check with prev revision.
Enjoy it! Thanks to Rodolfo for teach me all about dolphin.

From now on if you create a GUI option specific to a particular build, do not gray it out. Instead do as I have done here and make it not present on those builds. It may add a few precompiler conditionals that developers have to look at, but that is considerably better than a completely useless option that the end user has to look at.

Use 10.5 SDK header files in an attempt to keep us honest and
10.5 compatible. I'd do the same with system libraries, but
the linker gives strange errors when I try that. We also link
against third party libraries from Macports that haven't had
any magic 10.5 compat dust sprinkled over them, so maybe it
isn't very important anyway.
Move the OS X variable section in SConstruct upwards a bit to
have the settings apply to more of the config tests. SCons'
ParseConfig causes problems for the -arch tuples, though, so
the SDL check still isn't quite as comprehensive as it should
be.

In the future if we merge wiimote too, this will bring the advantage that the two will be able to cooperate, to no longer fight over control of input devices which can sometimes cause problems.
Thanks shuffle2 for the patience.

I hope I didn't break the mac+linux builds - if i did, fixing it should be a simple matter of adjusting the sconscripts.

- be more strict with the input signature of generated pixel shaders
- replace the D3D parameter with an API_TYPE one, so that we can further distinguish between DX9 and DX11
- for what it's worth dx11 (using vs_4_0) doesn't support D3DCOLORtoUBYTE4; added a workaround for this
- add a "dx9-" prefix to the shader cache files to avoid conflicts with dx11 shaders
Apart from that we're calling CommandProcessor::Shutdown() in main.cpp,Shutdown() now.
Delete all files in User/ShaderCache if you want to save a few KB disk space :P

experimental speedup: implemented alpha pass using stencil buffer instead of a duplicate shader. i recommend to test this well as i dono if will work the same way in all the systems. i my system it gives a nice 2-5 fps improvement. if it brings problems in any system or game will revert asap.

Patch from user gamepromcompany on the MacOSX_Build wiki page.
Add support for the Mac command key as a hotkey modifier in
WXKeyToString but present it as Control. WXKeyToString is used for
both hotkeys and menu accelerators, the latter only supporting
Shift/Alt/Control with wxWidgets.
wxSpinCtrl on wx 2.9 has a very small default size, so give the
window size ones a reasonable size.
Use wxFULLSCREEN_ALL when switching to fullscreen, which gets rid
of window decorations like the title bar. Note that to actually
be rid of it with wx 2.9 on OS X, you'll need this patch:
http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/11701
Also remove a couple of files I had accidentally duplicated.

Fixes a number of problems, including unreliable connection setup,
frequent disconnections, busy-waiting and shutdown deadlocks.
Motion Plus and nunchuk hot swapping now work and Wiiuse does a small
amount of queueing to prevent occasional dropped packets. The OS X
bluetooth stack has no internal input buffering and while a worker
thread can easily keep up with data coming from the Wiimote, the rest
of Dolphin can easily get behind if it is blocked by disk I/O or
similar. Mostly the Wiimote protocol recovers from dropped packets,
but sometimes the Wiimote would get out of sync and send a disconnect.
I wonder if the other platforms might benefit from a bit of queueing
at this layer as well.
Still doesn't support multiple devices, as I kept changing my mind
about how best to do it. I only have one Wiimote anyway..
One improvement to the Wiimote plugin that would be really nice would
be for the scan for new devices to operate continuously or periodically
like on a real Wii rather than just for 5 seconds at startup..

efb scale :
auto fractional: the original scaling way, will grant a 1:1 pixel mapping between efb and screen giving the best image quality even in non standard resolutions
at the cost of glitches in some games.
auto integral: automatic but only int values for the scale, no glitches but only the correct pixel scaling when using some resolutions.
the rest are the fixed scales.
enjoy.

hotkey configuration working with wx 2.9, but it turned out to be
too tempting to use it to hack up OS X keyboard support using wx
key events in the "old" input plugins.
It was with some reluctance that I used PAD_Input (and copied it
for Wiimote as well) as that is clearly a deprecated interface,
but this way the hack is contained within the old plugins for when
the switchover to ControllerInterface happens.
The idea is to provide stable keyboard support on OS X for both
GCPad and Wiimote while we debug HID keyboard and real 'mote code.
It works pretty well, although the wx approach does impose a few
limitations like no arrow keys and left/right side modifier keys
are considered equivalent.

just the basename like libPlugin_foo.dylib. Dolphin then loads the
plugins relative to the compiled-in plugins directory.
This means that you won't have to reselect the plugins when running
different builds (in different directories) and is most obviously
beneficial on OS X where application bundles are not (should not) be
expected to stay in the place where they are first installed.
This is tested on OS X and Linux with local/global build options, but
not Windows. I don't anticipate any problems on Windows, but that OS
does have slightly different semantics with regard to path component
separators and file suffixes, so it's something to watch out for.
