Source Changes
--------------
Fixed flags access in the i286 core. [Barry Rodewald]
Updated MC146818 module to use new core date/time routines.
[Nathan Woods]
Cleaned up disassemblers to remove stubs and ensure the disassemblers
are not referenced except in debug builds. [Nathan Woods]
Added support for using CHDs to decrypt CPS2 games. This code is
disabled for the moment, but will be enabled in the future. Only a
handful of games have complete tables so far. These tables are huge
(~4GB) and uncompressable until the encryption algorithm is
understood. [David Haywood]
Fixed bug in the debugger that caused watchpoints to not be active
until the next context switch. [smf]
Cleaned up the input definitions for n-way joysticks so they are
more explicit. Added concept of a "16-way" joystick, which is a
joystick that doesn't prevent simultaneous opposing directions from
bring reported. [smf]
Major System 573 update: [smf]
* fixed PSX SIO control register behavior

Fixed upside down service mode in the commando.c driver. [Canim]
Added support for the Triple Hunt 8-track audio. [Derrick Renaud]
Galaxian/Scramble driver reorganization: [Atari Ace]
* machine/scramble.c is broken up into two files,
machine/galaxian.c and machine/scramble.c
* drivers/amidar.c, drivers/frogger.c, drivers/scobra.c get copies
of some of the data structures they shared from other drivers
* galaxian_base is made static and uses outside of the main driver
were rewritten
* cclimber_decode code from drivers/cclimber.c was separated into
its own machine/cclimber.c file to allow mshuttle to share it
without taking on other dependencies
Added missing x-flipping support in Major Havoc. [Mathis Rosenhauer]
Made some improvements to trivia madness driver. There still is
something wrong in the question roms banking. [Pierpaolo Prazzoli]

* vdp1: added shading for sprites (used by znpwfv, cotton, others)
* vdp1: fixed sprite clipping (fixes incorrect sprites in znpwfv)
* vdp1: fixed transparency on colour lookup table sprites (fixes bad
sprites in znpwfv)
* vdp2: fixed caching of RGB layer (fixes bad backgrounds on bosses
in rsgun)
* vdp2: added additive blending for tilemaps and sprites (rsgun)
* vdp2: added vertical line scroll and linezoom (fixes diehard logo)
* stv: improved speedups for diehard
* stv: fixed speedups for znpwfv
* stv: added preliminary save state support
Significant cleanup of chd.c: [Aaron Giles]
* got rid of the horrible last_error concept; now all routines
return an error directly
* fixed several issues in managing metadata
* changed compression and verification routines to be client-driven
rather than monolithic
* changed internal codec usage to be more flexible
* altered chdman and MAME to use the new interfaces
* added new -createraw command for creating raw data CHDs
