in videocommon little fix for the alpha test values, return to the original values as they are more accurate.
in D3D:
huge change in state management, now all the state management is centralized and redundant state changes are eliminated.
Fixed the overlapped viewport error in non ati cards:
the error was caused by this: when a viewport is defined larger than the current rendertarget, an error is thrown and the last valid viewport is used, this is the reference behavior, in ati cards if a larger viewport is defined, no eror is returned, the rendering is valid and is rendered using the projection defined by the viewport but limited to the rendertarget are, exactly like opengl or the GC hardware.
to solve this in reference drivers defined a large rendertarget (2x the size of the original) and proceed to render in a centered quad insithe the larger rendertarget, in this way larger viewports always falls inside a valid rendertarget size, the drawback of this is the waste of resources. it can be dynamized, depending or games or changed at runtime when a oversized viewport is detected, but i live that to future commits.
please test this and let me know the results.

Also reimplemented screen clearing as a color quad to support alpha blending when clearing as in the original hardware.
the funny thing is how is implemented peeking, as locking depth textures is not supported, implemented peeking copying the values form the depth texture to a r32f render target and then reading back the data.
please a lot of testing to this commit.

corrected a little depth textures still broken but now at least i discover the reason, the ultra bad news for d3d lover is, the only correct way to implement depth textures will be do a firs depth only pass disabling blending.
This is because blending is affecting the values stored in the depth texture, so to store the true values, blending mus be deactivated.
this will degrade performance but is the only "Correct" way in d3d 9. the other possibility is dx10 but that's a complete different story ;)

Implemented all the correct format conversions in efb to texture copy.
replaced all the stretcrect calls with quad draws this must improve speed a bit.
A BIGGGGGGGGGG cleanup in the code and reorganization.
reimplemented zpeek using a secondary render target ( this still is buggy so many issues left)
please a lot off feedback.

Debugger panel is displayed only if Dolphin is started with /d option.
Dump features are not implemented.
Pause/Resume buttons works, only if the plugin is built in DEBUG or DEBUGFAST configuration, not in RELEASE. These features are really only for devs, not for regular gamers.
You will be able to pause frame by frame, or by n frames, or by n primitive flushes. Other pausing options are not implemented yet.
When other pausing and dumping features are implemented, debugging will be much easier.
I have changed the DX9 project setting to use unicode character set in order to use wxWidge tools. If this causes Dolphin building problems for you, check your project setting.txt

Also fixed shader compilation errors for DX9 plugin by using correct pixel/vertex attribute names that are compatibile with DX9 HLSL shader compiler. Now the generated vertex or pixel shader programs will compile correctly in either OGL or DX9.
However, DX9 plugin is still not fixed, even though the shader programs can be compiled now.

Still, memory leak exists for some unknown reason (we don't allocate more pages and we release every texture)
