Add a simple Python script that does a basic normalization on
the game INI files and run it across all the files we have. This
normalizes the sections, their order and comments, and the whitespace
within them.
It also removes the sections Video_Hardware, Gecko, and Wii, which
should not be in the game INI files we ship by default.

Revert "Don't open/close file for every file operation." as it was crashing PokePark in Windows builds.
Array overrun fixed in VertexShaderCache for the DX11 plugin.
Fixed DSPTool build.
Windows build fix
Go back to assuming every HID device is a wiimote on Windows. Fixed issue 6117. Unfixed issue 6031.
VideoSoftware: Improve fog range adjustment by using less magic and more comments.
revert RasterFont for VideoSoftware
ogl: fix virtual xfb
Windows build fix from web interface...
Adjusted the audio loop criteria, using >= on the Wii and == on GC. This fixes the audio static that occurred in Wii games after hours of play.
Forced the exception check only for ARAM DMA transfers. Removed the Eternal Darkness boot hack and replaced it with an exception check.
VideoSoftware: Implement fog range adjustment, fixing issue 6147.
implement 4xSSAA for OGL
move ogl-only settings into backend
Fix description of disable fog, and move it to enhancements tab.
Reverted rd76ca5783743 as it was made obsolete by r1d550f4496e4.
Removed the tracking of the FIFO Writes as it was made obsolete by r1d550f4496e4.
Forced the external exception check to occur sooner by changing the downcount.
Mark the Direct3D9 backend deprecated.
Prefer D3D11 and OpenGL over D3D9 by default.

At the end of July 2011, LM published a free DSP ROM that works with games
using the Zelda UCode. His ROM only has the code to handle UCode loading and a
few utility functions, the rest is missing. This includes the four large sound
mixing functions used by the AX UCode and the DROM containing coefficients used
for polyphase resampling in AX.
This is an improved, updated version of this ROM, which changes the following:
- We now have a free DROM that works for polyphase resampling by "emulating"
linear interpolation. The coefficients contained in the DROM are normally a
list of { c1, c2, c3, c4 } which are used to interpolate a sample value from
four previous samples:
out_sample = prev1 * c1 + prev2 * c2 + prev3 * c3 + prev4 * c4
The coefficients are chosen depending on the fractional part of the current
position (basically, our position between the previous and the next sample).
We can use this fact to generate (c1, c2, c3, c4) for each possible
fractional part so that:
out_sample = prev3 * curr_pos + prev4 * (1 - curr_pos)
Which is the formula for linear interpolation between prev3 and prev4. Linear
interpolation is not as good as polyphase resampling but it still works very
well and I couldn't really hear any difference between the two. If someone
wants to generate real polyphase filter coefficients, they are welcome to
submit a patch.
- The IROM now contains the 4 mixing functions used by the AX UCode: mix_add,
mix_add_two, mix_add_ramp, mix_add_ramp_two. They are large, inlined
functions (probably for performance reasons) in the official DSP IROM, our
version prefers to use a loop. This *should* be more performant with our DSP
JIT implementation, but I did not benchmark that.
Because the new DSP ROM is working just as well as the official ROM in 95% of
cases, it is now shipped by default with Dolphin and will be used with DSPLLE
if you don't have an official DSP ROM in User/GC. It will still display a panic
alert at every boot to notice you that you are using a non official DSP ROM
made by us, which is not perfect.
Games using the CARD, IPL or GBA UCodes are still broken. I don't know what
games this actually impacts, but this is a very small proportion compared to
what works.
