* Use c++11 static assert
* Properly cast to parameter template to u32 (help clang)
* Remove lots of useless ASM. Memset it only used with a size of 4096.
* check pthread_mutex_init status
* remove unused variable
* move static function from h into cpp
* Initialized hw_by_page to 0xFFFFFFFF instead of -1 (number must be a positive integer)
* Use a s32 fore m_current_lsn instead of u32 (use -1 as error code)
Bonus: a couple of fix for clang compiler (doesn't mean that it fully compile with clang)
* remove useless __debugbreak on linux
* use short for 16bits atomic function

NOTE: The 'glew' project does NOT build yet, but it will have to be decided how to approach the problem (String literal too long in glew.rc)

All UI percentage values (framerates, zoom) are saved incorrectly when the number ends with 0n (e.g. 105 is saved as 150, 307 is saved as 370, etc). The problem becomes apparent when these values are loaded from the ini file after restarting pcsx2.

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".

Pcsx2 now has a gifUnit class which acts like the ps2's gif and executes a single gif transfer at a time (and performs path arbitration according to priority and path3 slicing).
This new code is generally a speedup for most games. Particularly VU heavy games like GoW.
This revision breaks old saved state compatibility so don't update if you wish to keep playing with your old saved states.
Leave comments if this revision fixes or breaks anything...
Message to GS Plugin authors:
This new code now uses only 1 gif callback to transfer data to the gs plugin (GSgifTransfer).
pcsx2 also is garaunteed to send full GS primitives to the plugin. So you don't have to account for partial-transfers anymore.
Thanks goes out to shadowlady who tested around 500 games for me :D
Note 1: The old gif code is still in this revision, and can be enabled by the USE_OLD_GIF macro. The old code will be deleted soon.
Note 2: This revision also enables assertion dialogs in devel builds, and changed a lot of assume cases into assertions.

Details:
The major differences between install and portable modes should now be:
1. Portable mode doesn't use the registry at all.
2. Portable mode uses the folders inside pcsx2 folder as default (install mode has some default at "my documents").
3. Portable mode tries to save relative paths at the ini file where possible*.
Specifically, portable mode now allows to select custom folders for plugins, bios, etc via the standard UI, which allows using several portable pcsx2 folder sharing the same resources (bios, iso, memcards, etc).
* Relative paths where possible = the following sequence (thanks to pseudonym for the brilliant idea):
1. If the file/folder is inside pcsx2 folder, it's saved as completely relative (to pcsx2.exe)
2. Else, if the file/folder is at the same drive as pcsx2.exe, it's saved as absolute path without the drive letter (e.g. /ISO/...)
3. Else, saved as absolute path, including the drive letter (for linux, without drive letter naturally).
This allows to create a removable drive with (one or more) pcsx2 folder on it, configure all the files/folders to point to the same drive (ISOs, save states, etc), and then take this drive, plug it into another computer (where it will be assigned with a different drive letter), and everything will continue working.
Please test it if you can. Bugs here can be inconvenient...

* PCSX2 now splits settings into two files: pcsx2-ui.ini and pcsx2-vm.ini. The former is user interface clutter (window positions, confirmation dialogs, etc). The latter is virtual machine settings, speed hacks, game fixes, etc.
* Added support for PORTABLE INSTALLS!! Portable install is currently manually enabled by adding an empty "pcsx2-portable.ini" to the install location of PCSX2. Portable installs should run seamlessly from any flash drive, etc. (and will usually need Admin rights)
* PCSX2 install location and plugins folders are stored in the registry now (unless portable install is enabled, in which case no registry is used).
Notes:
* A button to enable portable installs from within PCSX2 is planned.
* NSIS installer will hopefully be upgraded to allow for a portable install option as well.

* Finished up zipfile-style savestate implementation
* Simplified BaseSaveState class, and removed lots of now-unneeded code.
* Prepared the i18n stuff for a pcsx2_Dev.pot file (WIP), and sorted more stuff to pcsx2_Tertiary.pot.

* "Browse" option in recent iso menu should translate now.
* Dialogs and config panels remember their positions more reliably (when using X or alt-F4 to close PCSX2, for example).
* Preliminary language selector dialog (available in debug builds only). Will finish it up later.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4088 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* fixed a bug that caused certain confirmation dialogs to not remember their choices, when user had non-english language.
* Added wxWidgets-provided strings for a few things, such as Next, Back, and OK / Apply / Cancel.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4076 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added logging of host operating system and physical ram to startup.
* Removed "PhysicalCores" stuff from both x86emitter and startup logs -- physical cores is losing its relevance with all the new AMD and Intel chip designs.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4048 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288

* PCSX2 uses significantly less memory when starting.
* Overall memory use reduced (mildly for some games, significantly for most).
* EE and IOP main memory are now fixed at 0x20000000 and 0x24000000 -- useful when using external cheat apps.
* Properly implemented the 'Shutdown' menu option -- Shutdown now unloads the entire PS2 virtual machine and reduced PCSX2's memory footprint to bare minimums.
* Some more meaningful errors for when memory is a problem (out of memory, low virtual memory, etc).
* Bugfix for pxsFmt when formatting long/large strings (over 1k)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4029 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Applied the new RecompiledCodeReserve to the VIF recompilers (saves another 4-8mb of memory, depending on game).
* Fixed a bug in pxsFmt / FastFormatUnicode (string formatting).
* Final round of error handling cleanups.
(branch is basically ready for re-integration -- needs some testin for obvious/show stopping bugs, thanks!)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/newHostVM@4025 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288

* Fixed some startup, shutdown, and reset resource management.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/newHostVM@4021 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Preliminary implementation for the SpatialArrayReserve class, which will be used for recompiler lookup tables (large portions of these tables are never used by many games). Will put it to use and test it soon.
* Finished implementation of TryResize method for reservations, which will be used by PCSX2 if the operating system runs low on ram.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/newHostVM@3992 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288

* SuperVU note: SuperVU recompiler now uses two separate 8mb caches for VU0 and VU1 (needed in order to simplify/saneify the reserve/alloc stages of pcsx2 app startup).
* Added MemsetFast.inl, which houses SSE intrinsic versions of memset and memzero, for use on aligned data targets.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/newHostVM@3975 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Security fix for Windows: Forced plugin filenames to be absolute paths, which resolves issues with windows' default path search order for DLLs, and hopefully avoids some errors for users who have installed Microsoft's Improved DLL Security patch.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3974 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288

* Added new ScopedAlloc classes, which are very simple dependency-free templates for exception-safe allocations.
* FastFormatString: Improved performance ad fixed an obscure bug.
* Drag&Drop (UI) - Improved the friendliness and responsiveness, so that PCSX2 doesn't end up tying up an explorer window while it prompts the user or issues error messages.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxIsoFile@3934 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
