Kidniki now achieves up to 910% when run with static solvers and with
nltool. That is significant better than the 860% we have seen
previously.
This increase is driven by using a global memory pool in the solver
code.
In addition the following refactoring and code maintenance work is
included. Please excuse the large commit, some of this took interfered
with other work and the detail development steps were ugly.
- gsl support: This commit adds pgsl.h which implements a very limited
number of the functionality of the gsl header described in the c++ core
guidelines.
- clang-tidy fixes
- A significant refactoring of palloc.h. Aligned hints were removed,
they added complexity without a significant performance gain. Vector
operations should better be done on special spans/views.
The code has been tested on linux with g++-7, g++-9, clang-11.
On Windows mingw-10 and VS2019, OSX clang-11.
- Added emulation of the SPG290 CDServo
- Added joypad inputs
- Added RFID card support
- Split SPG290 PPU, Timers and I2C into separate devices
- Added a softlist for the RFID cards
* Support Colecovision Megacart.
Assume that a rom file that is more than 32K in size is a megacart
and that it should be bankswitched using Megacart protocol.
* Put megacart functionality in its own cartridge type.

Factory elements can now pass additional parameters to device
constructors. This makes the design of interface objects like analog
callbacks easier.
The change also allowed to remove some "deep" calls into the core from
the MAME interface in netlist.h
* mw8080bw: update 280zzzap audio API in preparation for netlist audio
This is only API changes, following the pattern used by cuavas within the
past year to update other games in mw8080bw.
* mw8080bw: new netlist audio implementation for 280zzzap
New netlist-based audio implementation for 280zzzap (280-ZZZAP, 1976),
derived from Midway game logic board schematic. The sound generally
matches that heard in videos of the machine, though the real machine
seems to have more bass and less treble. This may be a cabinet effect
or something else, such as a difference in component values.
Due to the number of complex components being emulated and the nature
of the circuits, this netlist adds a lot of overhead, but it's still
fast enough to run at greater than real speed on modern hardware.
With minor changes, this implementation should also support lagunar
(Laguna Racer, 1977); with somewhat more substantial changes, it
would also support sspeedr (Super Speed Race, 1979). Both of these
games use sound circuits based on those for 280-ZZZAP.
