stephena 56694b5934 The sound system is now opened once per program invocation, and paused
when it isn't needed.  According to SDL this shouldn't be necessary, but
some combinations of video modes and audio hardware cause sound to stop
working if it's repeatedly opened and closed.  So we have to keep it open.

Always attempt to use 2 channels (aka stereo) when opening the SDL audio
device.  This is now required, since ROMs can request mono or stereo mode,
and the sound system can no longer be closed and re-opened with the
desired settings.  So we need to always use 2 channels to accommodate
when it might be needed.  This actually more closely emulates the 2600,
which does have two audio channels.  The 'mono' vs 'stereo' ROM property
basically controls whether these channels are exposed (ie, does the
virtual console have two-channel audio hardware installed).  In that sense,
these settings control how the channels are mixed.

Updated some settings to have more reasonable defaults.

Added acknowledgement for people that have donated hardware to help with
development.

stephena b2ed949082 Some final changes for the 3.2 release, including documentation updates.
Added 'ramrandom' commmandline argument, used to toggle randomizing or
zeroing or all RAM in the system (both zero-page and SARA).

Disassembler now properly supports all test cases, including rewinding
within the debugger.

Added preliminary support for disassembling from zero-page RAM.

Bumped version # for final release.
