Enable Cheats means enabling support from the files in "cheats\*.pnach"
Enable Patches means enabling support for the gamefixes/patches inside the game database...

* Added Visual Studio 2010 Redistributables to the installer package.
* Added some component descriptions. :)
* Separated several things into nsh header files for organizational purposes

This means you can put your cheats in "\cheats\*.pnach" and pcsx2 will read them from there.
Notes:
I have included some persona 4 cheats as an example in this commit...
Also note that currently the "Enable Patches" menu item also pertains to cheats (as well as database file patches).
I will add a separate "Enable Cheats" menu item in the future...

- Fixed a bug in the database_loader omitting the last game in the database...

Note: In this case you will set Serial = crc in the database (this should only be done when the game doesn't have a real serial code)

- Database key searching is no-longer case-sensitive (so for example: [patch = A1B2C3D4] is the same as [Patch = a1b2c3d4])

Got rid of the redist check. Now the package always installs / repairs in unattended mode.

Also avoid an issue where the FirstTimeWizard would fail creating some files.

* Added banner image
* (UAC) Re-enabled forced-admin mode for now
* Fixed a bug in the vc redist installer.

They can be CRC specific, or just based on the game serial.
Examples:
[patches]
// This patch is loaded regardless of crc
patch=0,EE,002aa040,word,24020001
[/patches]
[patches = 84993903]
// Patches go here
// This is only loaded if crc = 84993903
patch=0,EE,002bc040,word,24020341
[/patches]
notes:
- pcsx2 only loads the first [patches] block that matches the game.
- The [patches] block based on crc takes priority when pcsx2 searches for patches...
- Everything in-between the patches block gets fed to pcsx2's old patch parser; so currently the patch syntax is the same as before...
- A lot of patches weren't added to the database since they didn't include serial codes in their *.pnach files :/

Fixes an issue where they could not access their config files in restrained PCSX2 installs.
Fixes issue 686.

* Added some brevity info to the Bios Selector screen during first time wizard.
* NSIS: Added IsUserAdmin script; not used quite yet (see diff comments)

32-bit depth buffers for D3D9 users if available. Lots of code shuffling for reasons I don't even remember. Stuff. Pretty much just the 32-bit depth buffers. That's good though, you don't have to envy D3D10 users half as much now.

* Added DX11 support. DX11 enabled cards now give a +~40% speedup
* New SSE-X instructions we invented for PCSX2. Give a +200% speedup even on old CPUs.
* Full 64bit support. If you have 64 bit windows, be prepared for a 300% speed up.
* Implemented new DMAC, so far we have ~15 games that show improvements.
* Added support for USB-enabled vibrators. Feel the full pleasure of gaming, now also with PCSX2!
* SPU2-X now decodes Dolby Digital 7.1!
* Please test to find any bugs in the 24-thread code, it's a bit complex so some tiny bugs might have crept in.

* Fixed issues with start menu links
* Added an option for desktop shortcut!
* capitalization consistency (PCSX2 instead of pcsx2 for all user-displayed names)
* improved the uninstaller logic slightly.

There shouldn't be a reason to add more categories to the current list, and we will have a 'notes' field for additional information....

- Games now display their compatibility status on the console title-bar ^^
- Modifications to DataBase_Loader to write to the database and save changes
Note to pcsx2 team:
The compatibility info is numerically based.
000 ~ 099 = Unknown Compatibility status
100 ~ 199 = Nothing
200 ~ 299 = Intro
300 ~ 399 = Menu
400 ~ 499 = In-game
500 ~ 599 = Playable
600+ = Perfect
(Currently no game has the perfect status since the pcsx2.net compatibility list didn't have that as an option)

* Fixed a startup crash by moving the game database initialization to cpuReset(). This is a temporary measure until we sort out a better system for it. This is needed because initializing complex classes in C++ as globals is VERY dangerous and unpredictable. The databse was being loaded before any wxWidgets/UI objects were being created themselves, so any errors, exceptions, or console logs generated by the database were likely to cause unpredictable behavior.
