Logic stays the same as before: If no ws hack is loaded from the normal cheats_ws folder, they try finding ws hacks at the zip.

Performance note, it might be faster to replace the MODULO with an AND. Not sure on the impact
for the new time stretcher algo.
GSdx: fixed use-after-free (linux)
PCSX2:
* add a define to support address sanitizer (both rely on 0x20000000-0x3fffffff memory ranges..)
* sio_buffer out of bond (-1). Maybe we can move the flush in the 2 if previous branch. It would
avoid the extra test.
* wxGetEnv (linux) generates double free (maybe not thread safe). Cache the result so it doesn't crash
anymore when switching renderer

- changed the KH2 fix in GetTextureMinMax to my taste, should give the same results, when the used texture rect is to the left/above the clamped area, it returns [min, min+1], and [max-1, max] for right/below
- m_mem.m_clut.Read32 was returned to its original place from GetAlphaMinMax
- UserHacks_WildHack was moved up to GSState, special UV handlers are only used when this setting is active
- updated xbyak to the latest available (avx2 seems incomplete, the 256-bit promoted old instructions are missing)
- changed vtune's include path to the 2013 edition
Some other not yet commited changes from a year ago:
- WriteImageX overflow crash-fix
- moved colclamp after dithering (sw mode), it makes more sense, no visible changes noticed
- Gif_Tag::analyzeTag(), there was a conditional I didn't like, split the loop into two parts

VIF/Path3 Masking: Put a timing break in on Path2 transfers, this gives it chance to stop being busy incase it is closely followed by a path3 mask, which caused it to go out of time. Fixes Sensible Soccer.
VIF: Fixed up a couple of typo's, which may or may not have done anything, one which was not setting an offset if it stalled on 1/4 of a quadword, which could have been disasterous if done by the wrong game.

1. Multiple cheats files (at the "cheats' folder) can be loaded, as long as they begin with the CRC and end in '.pnach' (e.g ABCD1234.Persona4(EU).god-mode.pnach)
2. Multiple cheats are also loaded from the Widescreen hacks folder ('cheats_ws'). File names rules are the same as for normal cheats.
TODO: Add config and GUI for widescreen hacks. Right now the cheat files from cheat_ws folder are loaded if cheats are enabled. We need a separate config for that.

Fixes in this commit:
-Evil Dead - Fistful of Boomstick - Now goes ingame and works right (needs software mode on gsdx to fix lighting)
-Tony Hawk's Project 8 - Graphics are no correct. Like earlier TH games, you need Negative rounding to fix it all.
-Mark of Kri - The game now has collision detection! Apparently before you'd get stuck on objects, now you can walk freely.

Everblue: Slightly messy fix, not as nice as id hope, but it seems to work, we need to remember VU programs written to the VU so we can check if an unpack is modifying it. This retains the behaviour of the Snowblind engines whilst fixing everblue.
Hitman 2: Our vif0/1VUFinish() routing which works in conjunction with the delays wasn't paying attention to if the VIF was stalled or not and reran it before the game wanted it to, now fixed.

As a bonus, the Tony Hawk Project 8 game (possibly the others using the same engine too) now have perfect graphics in VU Interpreter :) (software mode still required to get rid of lighting garbage however. Skipdraw 2 "kinda" works, but not overly well)

In this iteration, a simple read-ahead scheme is used where the next expected read begins as soon as the CDVD code calls FinishRead.
The expected improvement is close to 0 since a similar system is already in place in the core.
The next iteration should have an internal buffer, and use completion callbacks to initiate read-aheads as soon as the previous read is done, without waiting for the emulator to fetch the results of the previous operation.

This is a workaround for the many FMV issues that occur in hardware rendering and that will take a while longer to get a proper fix.
It doesn't have any checks for the current video mode, so don't put GSdx in software mode and expect this to adapt, okay? :p

The game attempts to loads all data in to the VIF FIFO then stall it. Something goes very wrong. Maybe one day ill replace this and the transformers gamefix with a FIFO we can turn on, but for now, this'll do.

* Vif: Altered how resumed transfers are handled slightly on VIF side (for MFIFO).
* SPR: Now transfers data to the MFIFO even if not in MFIFO mode if it meets the conditions of the ring buffer location (SOCOM 2)
SOCOM 2 is now playable, sort of, the HUD is a mess (unless a tip shows up), looks like Path3 masking but isn't.

Hangs also related to Phantasy Star 4 and FFX Thunder Plains, which are both still ok with this. Also the sif dma errors in Legends of Legaia should be gone again!

Threading VU1 took a lot of rewrites and new code to make possible (MTGS, microVU, gifUnit...), but we finally got to the point where it was feasible, and now we've done it! (so now everyone can stop complaining that pcsx2 only takes advantages of 2 cores :p).
The speedups in the games that benefit from it are great if you have a cpu with 3+ cores (generally a 10~45% speedup), however games that are GS limited can be a slowdown (especially on dual core cpu's).
The option can be found in the speedhacks section as "MTVU (Multi-Threaded microVU1)". And when enabled it should should show the VU thread-time percentage on the title bar window (Like we currently do for EE/GS/UI threads).
It is listed as a speedhack because in order for threading VU1 to have been a speedup, we need to assume that games will not send gif packets containing Signal/Finish/Label commands from path 1 (vu1's xgkick). The good news is very-few games ever do this, so the compatibility of MTVU is very high (a game that does do this will likely hang).
Note: vs2010 builds and Linux builds need to be updated to include "MTVU.h" and "MTVU.cpp".

The problem as I understood is is incomplete COLCLAMP support.
Thanks to sudo for the hack :)
(Unfortunately we couldn't find out more about why these FMV also *all* flicker.)
