for all the plugins implemented per pixel lighting, this will make games that uses lighting a lot nice. (just look at mario sunshine and compare :))
for dx9: implemented temporal anaglyph stereo: just grab your red-cyan glasses and enjoy.
stereo calibration: use stereo separation ( distance of the point from you are looking) and Focal Angle: the angle necessary to focus in one particular object.
this settings are different in every games as they use different depth ranges.
please for any regression and bug introduced by this commit.
if you ask why i did not implement stereo in dx11 and opengl the reason is one: they don't work right when i have more time will try to find a way to make them work.

Main Issues:
DX11 is functional with a ~2MB/s mem leak.
OpenGL/DirectX9 have a black display while game runs. (DirectX 9 flashes good display on emulation stop)
Too many virtual function calls. (once everything is working, I will work on removing them)
Won't build on non-Windows in its current state. (mainly EmuWindow will need changes for Linux/OS X)
Probably other stuff.

include referenced array data in the hash to avoid problems in some games.
this version is a slower than the last version but is more stable, still much work to do but so little time to do it :)
Added Dlist Caching Option to the plugin configuration so anyone can compare the performance change.

use plain vertex arrays instead of VBOs to render in Opengl plugin as the nature of the data make VBOs slower. This must bring, depending on the implementation, a good speedup in opengl.
in my system now opengl and d3d9 have a difference of 1 to 5 fps depending of the game.
some cleanup and a little work pointing to future improvements in the way of rendering.
please test and check for any errors.

fixed one of the last graphic problems in smg, now the glow in the plants and planets must be correct.
the error was caused by a error in lighting calculations. so it must affect other games.
please test and let me know the results.

Really that happens because the fifo.CPReadWriteDistance is negative.
Example: CPReadWriteDistance: -864 CPEnd: 10092672 fifo.CPBase: 9568416
In SMG this is because PI_FIFO_RESET is writing and after fifo.CPReadWriteDistance will be setted to 0.
To Prevent that, I've Implemented AbortFrame function in the CommmandProcessor. It should fix overflown because of that.
Note: There is other issue (Issue 2846) where the fifo.CPReadWriteDistance is negative too but the effect is different.
I'm working to solve this.

Remove a member variable which I introduced in r5907 although it never actually got used. Restores binary compatibility (at least in that regard) to pre-r5907 video plugins, but breaks any binaries after that :P
Update FIFO watermark tightness recommendations. 1000 is quite a high value I guess, but some people seem to need it.

The code changes disable the usual pipeline flush for certain BP Writes that occur while the minimap is being drawn in Zelda: twilight princess. This significantly increases speed while in hyrule field. The way this is accomplished is described more in depth on page 42 of Xtreme's thread. Big thanks to Xtreme for doing a great job hosting that thread, and Kiesel-stein for initial work on the hack
Also, I used the resource editor in Visual studio to generate the GUI code for the DX11 plugin, and some code appeared to be removed, although the behavior of the GUI did not seem to change. Hopefully someone more experienced with resource files (forms?) can double check that no code was damaged

The GCC model for extended instructions like these is that you compile
with -msse3 etc. These affect code generation for whole compilation units,
so the idea is that you have a separate .c file for each instruction set
class and then indirect to the desired one at runtime.
Without e.g. -msse4.1, the GCC built-ins used by <foointrin.h> are not
available. However, in our specific case of compiling with -msse2 and
wanting to use SSE3.1 code, enough built-ins are available that we only
need to provide a little hack for pshufb.
Upgrading this to also use SSE4.1 instructions doesn't appear feasible
without a lot of undesirable duplication of GCC built-in functions and
headers, so we'd probably have to move to the GCC model of separate
source files for that.

To change it, right click the affected game in the iso list, select Properties, and enter some constant for "Watermark tightness". Reasonable values range from 20 to 200.
FIFO seems unoverflowable on my computer no matter what I set this value to, so test whether tuning the value helps you ;P

- fix numerous warnings
- make some variables unsigned
- remove redundant code and header inclusions
- make code more compact in lots of cases
Committing some additional changes by myself:
- additional header cleanups
- cleanup DX11 initialization/shutdown process (hinted at by avindra)
- Remove the cgD3D9 stuff from Externals since it's no longer needed

Because we only ever call Pos_ReadDirect (and through that, DataRead<T>)
from JIT generated code, the compiler may not get the heads-up to properly
prepare for run-time instantiation of those template functions.
Explicitly instantiating Pos_ReadDirect gets around that issue.
Also force DataRead* inline as gcc didn't always do that itself when the
DataRead functions in turn were called from (other) template functions.

I am far from a C++ language lawyer, so I cannot speak learnedly about the
correctness of this solution, but it works.
Dolphin.app built on OS X 10.6 now actually works on 10.5 as well.

- Eliminate the useless check for cpu modifications option from efb to ram as it must be enabled always
- use constant names in dx11 for buffer length calculation instead to simplify code reading
- implemented scaled efb copy in opengl, still bugy in some games, the option is not in the gui but will add it when it works perfect
- Change the depth calculation behavior:
if the game use z textures is exactly the same as before.
if the game do not use z texture calculate z values in the vertex shader. the advantage id this approach is that early z culling is applied,
improving fill rate. this mus speed up things, even with ssaa and msaa enabled.
please test for regression and enjoy.

some improvements to the new efb to ram
please test to see if the issues introduced by the new efb to ram are solved by this commit

replace efb to ram implementation by a hybrid approach.
explanation:
when copying from efb to texture, instead of make a copy to a texture or to the ram, copy the data to both, in hi quality to the texture and in native quality to the ram.
then instead of re-decoding the data from ram (very slow) use the data in the texture.
to improve this even more, test if the cpu has modified the data in the ram copy, if so, update the texture in memory and mark it as dynamic to avoid redundant work in future frames.
having all this implemented this is what is archived:
sms: full quality with scaled efb copies and fully functional goop cleaning :)
ztp: efb to texture speed with full map support.
nsmbw: this is a hard to emulate game, as it make a lot of shading and texture modification in cpu. it only have 35 fps in my system with new efb to ram but is 10 fps faster than normal efb to ram.
this game also show me another unimplemented feature, copy efb to multiple textures at the same time (is used to animate coins and other things in the world).
this is a remaining todo in efb to texture.
a lot of games should improve, so please test and let me know any regresion caused by this commit.
if everyone likes this the next step is, implement efb to multilpe textures and merge efb to ram and efb to texture.
then port to the other plugins.
enjoy.

return to the old values in constants in pixelshader, the old values give mi 3 or 4 fps more,(maybe some kind of compiler optimization) in some games and with the current algorithm i notice no difference with this values, please report any problem.
optimizes SSAA to make it a little faster and, the quality should be the same but with a little speedup.
change the way the frame is processed depending is xfb is enabled or not to make this a little faster.
please test and report any problem
