- Modified MMC1 base class (SxROM) to have outer bank base/mask to make it extensible by multicarts.
- Implemented two boards, reset-based SxROM and a 2-in-1 by TXC, as proof of concept.
- Marked Operation Wolf games as partially supported due to zapper inputs not working.
- Marked Space Shadow as not supported since it requires the extra buttons on the Bandai Hyper Shot gun.

Yǒngzhě Chuánshuō
Wángzhě Wúshuāng
cchasm.cpp: Combined source files, added I/O port finder, reduced audio
levels to avoid hitting the limiter.
redalert.cpp: Converted sound boards to devices and removed a couple of
trampolines, making the driver state class considerably tidier.
bus/amiga/keyboard, bus/sunkbd: Put a bunch of implementation classes in
anonymous namespaces, getting implementation details out of headers and
out of the global namespace.
- Corrected IRQ behavior based on more recent PCB observations. Fixes some flickering on World X-Y interlevel screens in SMB2J bootleg.
- Corrected SMB3 bootleg's banking, also per PCB analysis.

SpongeBob SquarePants Jellyfish Dodge (JAKKS Pacific TV Game) (Apr 5 2007) [Sean Riddle, David Haywood]
new WORKING clones

Dora the Explorer - Doras Abenteuer-Globus (Germany) [Sean Riddle, TeamEurope]
-namcos2.cpp : made Japanese Marvel Land the parent, the US prototype is an earlier incomplete build, it ends abruptly, lacks any end credits, and is missing many of the levels (plus various other incomplete elements, see https://tcrf.net/Marvel_Land_(Arcade) ) 'US' could also be 'World' but I haven't changed that.
* Reworked device type definition macros to eliminate one level of
indirection when using device types by name.
* Fixed a potential initialisation order issue that could affect device
parent ROMs.
* Eliminated the need for DEFINE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS - just use
DEFINE_DEVICE_TYPE or DEFINE_DEVICE_TYPE_PRIVATE with fully-qualified
names.
* Changed device type aliases to static auto references in the headers.
* Added Doxygen comments for system/device definition macros and system
flags.
-Added ROM parents for m68705u3 and a2diskiing.
Original device was reverse-engineered with a logic analyzer and test
ROMs. The CPLD behaves as a slave device, returning data when selected,
based on previous writes.

Killer Instinct 2 (Upgrade kit) [pdaderko]
* The UI controls are described as zoom in/out, but they had the
opposite effect on the palette and tile viewers. That has been
changed to make them consistent with the tilemap viewer.
* Made the default zoom key not act as a toggle. People are familiar
with the function of Ctrl+0/=/- in web browsers, so making them behave
similarly in MAME should make it more approachable. Also added the
default zoom key to the relevant documentation page.
* Implemented the default zoom key for the palette and tile viewers.
* In the tilemap viewer, if the view is in default expand to fit mode,
zoom in/out starting from the actual zoom ratio. Once again, this
behaves more like the zoom controls in a web browser displaying an
image so it should be more intuitive.
* Made more messages from the tilemap viewer localisable.
-util/zippath.cpp: Fixed MT08074.
* There were multiple issues at play here. After #8443 was applied,
is_root was simply never returning true on Windows, as OSD_WINDOWS
isn't actually defined outside libosd and libocore. This caused
phantom parent items to appear in disk roots on Windows, but it meant
that the check in zippath_resolve would always fail so the trailing
backslash would be trimmed. Fixing the macro test in is_root meant
the trailing backslash from C:\ would no longer be trimmed, which
caused the stat in zippath_resolve to fail.
-bigbord2.cpp: Hooked up floppy DRQ that had somehow got lost.
-Reduced tag map lookups in several drivers and devices.
-util/coretmpl.h: Removed an overload of bitswap that can be avoided
using if constexpr.
-Added doxygen comments to some classes, and fixed several doxygen
warnings.
-util, osd: Test for _WIN32 rather than WIN32.
* In C++17 mode, WIN32 is no longer a predefined macro, although various
things in 3rdparty define it to maintain legacy support. We're better
off moving forward anyway for when WIN32 disappears entirely. (WIN32
is not a reserved name, while _WIN32 is, starting with an underscore
follwed by an uppercase letter.)
