video backends.
This would be considerably easier if there was a way for me to have
fully working video in some sort of VM. If anyone has achieved that,
preferably with Linux but failing that with Windows, I would
appreciate any tips on how to set it up. VideoSoftware used to more
or less work in a VM, but I've never been able to get OpenGL to do
much more than open the window and display OSD messages.

in Initialize() and Video_Prepare(). Video_Prepare()
then becomes the entry point for associating the current
thread with the rendering context, which is currently
only known to be necessary for OpenGL.

connection establishment be done in the same thread, which caused
problems when the now persistent device connections could be
initiated by either opening the wiimote config dialog or starting
the emulation.
This same thread doesn't necessarily have to be the main (GUI)
thread, but it fits with the current other init case in the wiimote
config dialog and doing it in the main thread and would be required
if we should want to use the IOBluetoothUI framework in the future
for having the user input a pairing key for permanent syncing.
Also move a few other bits of code from the emu thread function
into Init() and Shutdown() so it only does those things that need
to be in that thread's context. I am not sure about video setup
so I have left that in EmuThread() for now.

- 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.

Things break if both a shared and static libpng are linked
in, presumably because it has some global state. Several of
the gtk-ish libraries often, but not always, link in libpng
transitively, so it is important that we find it ourselves
first, even if it is not in the linker's search path.

Changes:
* Allow events to be scheduled when the emulator is not running. This allows the save state event to be added before the emulator starts.
* Removed the Audio back-end init flag from the save state. This value should not be saved as it is not data relevant to guest machine.
* Allow a recording to be started at any time (apart from when a recording is already being made).
* Updated the status bar and title bar when an on-screen message is shown
* Removed the saving of PEToken from the save state as the FIFO will save this information
* Added a couple Pixel Engine interrupt states to the save state
* Added the copyright notice to the GCPadStatus.h file.
This function is preliminary. Let us know of any bugs you find or any UI quirks.

This allows ALL settings in the gfx configuration dialog to be adjusted _per game_ in a more user-friendly way than before.
Obsoletes the gfx related options in the ISO properties, but I kept those since the configuration profiles use different ini file keys (i.e. convert the game inis to the new naming, please!).

so VideoOGL always is in the same state when starting a guest program.
Also constify the RasterFont, while we are at it.

- 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.

Also verify the validity of gfx configuration directly after loading rather than in the GUI code (which was kinda stupid anyway).

- 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.
