stephena 5e4b690d8d Well, it's finally here. First pass at the new TIA code, which improves
emulation when performing 'illegal' HMOVEs (aka, when modifying the HMxx
registers within 24 CPU cycles of HMOVE).

All tweaks for illegal HMOVEs have been removed; and all ROMs that
previously needed those tweaks are now working correctly.  Several other
ROMs are fixed as well, including Bumper Bash and Pole Position.

As this is WIP, there is also some breakage:

1)  Cosmic Ark 'TIA confusion mode' effects aren't complete; the
movement is correct, but the missile widths aren't corrected yet.

2)  Performing a write to NUSIZx while a player is still drawing
isn't complete.  This breaks several ROMs that worked before, such
as Galaxian and Space Instigators.

3)  Writes to RESPx aren't complete yet, especially if they're
combined with an immediate write to NUSIZx.

Most of the ideas (and some code) for these changes comes from
contributions to MESS and EMU7800.  Where applicable, permission
was obtained from the original author to use the code/ideas.
