These have no meaning in x64 (apart from throwing compiler warnings),
and we don't do 32-bit anymore. Also saves needing to include
`Pcsx2Defs.h` in files which don't otherwise need it.
Fixes Tennis Court Smash and Love Smash games which previously couldn't be fixed.
WRC no longer requires a patch, just the xgkickhack option.
Note: it's not a hack anymore, it just has to be called that :P
Some games like to write directly to VU memory once the program has finished and I have no easy way to update the kick without being super slow. so for now, we'll just flush it.
Also fixed a situation where PATH3 could transfer a packet to the GIF and finish its DMA while PATH1 was busy, so PATH3 never finished transferring properly as it relies on the DMA to handle the pretend timing of PATH3.
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)

If the first branch is a branch instruction, then ignore the second.
If the first branch is a jump instruction, execute 1 instruction from the first jump, then execute the second branch. (This is the only confirmed thing i can find from people testing this)

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".

some bits were kept for reference and should be deleted in the future (along with the entire GIFpath.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.

Fix an sVU regression from way back in r3549 (God of War, Tales of the Abyss).

* Removed the hacky g_pVU1 pointer, which required VU1 cpu registers to be part of VU0. Replaced it with a standard VU1 variable (mimics all other CPU registers, which are standard static vars). We were using translation functions/tables for all VU0 memory operations anyway, so this was a no-brainer.
* Removed code from microVU that was only there to help deal with the fact that g_pVU1 was annoying.
* Turned eeMem->HW into a static global array eeHw [64k].

* More VU interpreter cleanups (VU0micro.cpp and VU1micro.cpp are just about ready for permanent removal now).
