- ReImplementing Single Core Mode like Dual Core Mode Style.
- Stage 1: My goal is, we have the Fifo, CommandProccessor code the more clear, maintenible and documented possible. When I quit dolphin I want any developer can continue with the work only reading the code.
* Big Refactoring: A lot of functions was changed the names, and modularized.
Now the FifoLoop and CatchUpGPU does not exist, was replaced by RunGpu() and RunGpuLoop().
The general idea is modeling the code like the real HW. The fifo is only a buffer where the Write Gather Pipe write the commands and from the Graphic Processor read these.
* Big Clean UP a lot of obsolete code and comments was deleted, like DcFakeWachDog, "Fifo very soon hack", etc.
In the stage 2, I will refactoring more code doing emphasis in the division of CommandProcessor, Fifo, Gpu Emulation. Beside I will comment all functions and variables in the code (Don't worry I will ask for English help for this part ;) )
Please test a lot SC mode and DC mode :)
Thank you so much for testing always and the patience. I don't like broke your favorite game but... you must believe me this part is very sensible, I only try to contribute for have a better and stable dolphin emulator.

- This game read the CPRead pointer when the GP is processing data and after detach the fifo and attach again an use this pointer for continue, so implement fifo.SafeCPReadPointer pointer.
- fifo.SafeCPReadPointer is updated when (FAKE_GetFifoEndPtr() - g_pVideoData) == 0) to have a pointer without GFX Commands Cut in the beginning of 32 block.
- Reset video buffer when the CPReadWriteDistance is written by the software.
- This commit is experimental please test a lot your games.

- In the Command Processor Control Register when GPReadEnable is OFF, wait until the fifo lopp finish with thi actual 32 bytes block. This is necessary to have Safe Disabble GP Read in this way AbortFrame is performed by the software, beside this can help to have accurate GPReadEnable OFF.
Please test Metroid Prime 1/2, Guilty Gear XX, X men gc, SMG, and shuffle you can test Harry Potter Prince for WII. :)
PD: The fifo code need a clean very soon.

I think that isFifoBusy bring better sync with VI (video interface) because the CPU emulated threads are waiting for DrawDone in BP Register. So, I do some modifications.
1) Rename "IsFifoBusy" by "isPossibleWaitingSetDrawDone"
2) Only activate isPossibleWaitingSetDrawDone when bFF_GPLinkEnable is true in fifo loop "Inmediate mode" that is because in theory this drawsync function is using in this mode.
3) Deactivate isPossibleWaitingSetDrawDone also in SetFinish in PixelEngine, beside when 32 block is finish.
Please regression in yours games thats can bring some FPS more above all with VPS frame limiter ON (Auto, 60, 50, etc).
- Fix waiting in AbortFrame(), please test mp1/mp2 is fixed again.
Good look!
