Set UTF-8 source file format globally.
Set permissive/compliance mode globally.
Get rid of include of base 3rdparty directory, be explicit.
Get rid of duplicated properties.
Get rid of leftover plugin property files.
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.
-Implemented GIF_MODE Masking fixed the All Star Pro Wrestling series slowness/hanging.
DMA:
-Standardize the IPU and SIF dma's to use the standard chain handling in hw.c, fixed up some DMA resuming stuff in the forementioned units, VIF, GIF and SPR.
-Added some warnings for DMA stall control which isn't implemented, hopefully somebody will find a game that does it so we can add/test it :)

* use same path as game index db for cheats and cheats_ws
* install the new cheat zip file on cmake and debian installer

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.

-Path3 Masking Changes, Gif Unit now rolls the DMA back (Path3 only) if it is using the Masking and finishes mid DMA packet.
-Vif modified to be simpler in the transfer loop and fixes issues where Flushes are called at the end of a DMA packet.
Game fixes from changes:
Outrun 2006 - Water textures and general flickering fixed, also SW mode not required for half screen issue. Caused by GIF Path 3 stopping in the wrong place.
Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith - DMA timeouts caused by Flush at end of packet.
Had to break savestates (version change!), sorry :(

Path3 Masking: Fixed a bug which caused persona 3 not to boot, previous a hack had been put in place to get around this.
VIF: Fixed a VIF error with the rare game Realta Nua, now goes through the prologue correctly. Game requires the EE timing hack to get rid of most of the noise (Path3 masking problem with new GIF unit, unfixable).
Expecting bugs, I will be monitoring this.

Also added a couple important global variables to be savestated (breaks old state compat).

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.

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.

Cleaned up Gifdma a little, removing duplicate code. Disabled a few console writes we dont nee really.

- Slight tweak to Path3 masking, an overlooked situation where Path3 can wait between GIFTags.
- Improved the stability of MFIFO on both sides greatly for games such at Tekken Tag (which boots again) Gran Turismo 4 and FF7 Dirge of Cerberus.
I'm expecting *Something* to break, so please report it here if something does, please make sure it is THIS revision.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4035 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
-Did same code for VIF0 just to standardize things a little.
If this breaks anything let me know, and make sure it is this revision please.

* VIF now sends a 128 bit tag instead of a 64 bit tag (lower 64 bits masked to 0 -- this should mimic real hardware behavior more closely)
* Added more GIFtag logging info
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3916 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed V2/V3 unpacks to behave same as the SSE unpacks (matches undefined PS2 behaviors)
* Removed legacy vifUnpacker (haven't needed it for any regression testing in forever).
* Move some VIF MARK console spam to DevCon (Ape Escape 3)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3746 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Writes via 16 and 8 bit ops now use 32-bit read/modify/write operations by default; which should enable nearly complete support for all such operations (instead of the formerly spotty coverage before).
* Eliminated almost all former 8/16-bit specific register operations. All code shares the same 32 bit handlers now.
* Completely revamped the developer trace logs for hardware registers! *ALL* registers are logged now, complete with address, name, and value being read/written (and nicely formatted!).
* Handlers are now fully page-based using templated functions (minor speedup)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3704 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added __fi and __ri, which are abbreviations for __forceinline and __releaseinline.
* Added some static qualifiers to functions in mVU, MMI ops, and others where appropriate.
* Removed some unnecessary __fastcall qualifiers (since GCC gets funny sometimes when you combine __fastcall and inlining).
* Made _1mb, _16mb, _1gb values common to all emulation code (moved from newVif/mvu to Common.h) -- they're useful! :)

Games
- Resident Evil Dead Aim flickering graphics fixed.
- Flatout games should now boot everytime (instead of randomly)
- Sega Superstar Tennis flashing fixed
- Destruction Derby graphics fixed (NTSC confirmed, PAL unsure)
- Tenchu Fatal Shadows flickering textures fixed, Issue 748
- Spyro Hero's Tail should boot again, Issue 746
General Info
- General reworking of the GS paths with all paths prioritizing more correctly.
- XGKICK can stall if another GS transfer is in progress
- Major reworking of Path3 masking, could still be combined with normal Path3 transfers, but lets get it working first :P
- Taken in to account a few conditions which could have caused VIF to lock up/crash when stalling on ends.
- Unreversed GIF and SPR and VIF so its the normal way round
- all DMA paths should now resume correctly after being stopped by hardware
- GIF FIFO now actually transfers stuff :P
- VIF CMD's simulated by the length of the interrupts at the end.
Phew, i think that's everything :S
