1df245cb99 More Lua engine clean-up and documentation, resulting in core cleanup.
More Lua interface cleanup, additional properties and methods, and
documentation migration/expansion.

Emulated switch inputs can have "not" codes applied to host input axis
directions.  It works the same way as host switch inputs - push twice
for a "not" prefix.

Input polling helpers no longer need to store state in the input device
items.  There’s less leakage, and less chance of things interfering with
each other.

Allow snapshot view options to be configured through the internal UI via
the video options menu.  Made video options menus place initial focus on
the currently selected view item.  Removed some crud from the menu base
class.

Fixed the description of the "snapview" option.  The value to get raw
screen pixels was changed to "native" a long time ago but the
description was never updated.

Re-arranged the Golden Poker button lamps so that the 6-button layouts
for Jolli Witch and Wild Witch make sense.  In 6-button mode, the hold
buttons double as bonus game and bet buttons, but the lamp outputs don't
change.  The simplest way to deal with this without requiring the user
to switch views or using layout scripting is to place the dedicated
buttons directly below the hold buttons that correspond to them.

Removed some software list data that was redundantly copied into
device_image_interface (m_supported was never even set, so it didn't
even work), and made crc() work better (previously it wasn't
recalculuated after unloading and loading another image).

Made strformat.h and devcb.h play nicer with C++17 and pre-standard
C++20.  Format precision now correctly limits the length of string
views.  Confirmed that strformat.{h,cpp} works with pre-standard C++20
support in GCC 9.

Removed an auto_alloc from cpu/arm7.

503332a986 -Lua cleanup and documentation migration checkpoint.
* Cleaned up some more of the Lua inteface.  Mostly replacing methods
  with properties, some consistency fixes, a few renames, some more
  exposed functionality, and a couple of properties that have no
  business being set from scripts made read-only.
* Moved a lot more Lua documentation out of source comments into the
  documentation, and expanded on it in the process.
* Got more UI code out of the input manager.
* Changed input sequence poller to a polymorphic class where you
  specify your intention upfront.
* Changed the cheat plugin to use UI Clear to clear hotkey assignments
  and leave them unchanged if the user starts assignment but doesn't
  press any switches.
* Ported AJR's fix for over-eager double-click recognition from SDL to
  Windows OSD.

-goldnpkr.cpp: Cleaned up inputs, using standard keyout and payout types
 and key assignments.

4d7ef27490 -luaengine.cpp: Clean up render classes and expose screen image adjustments.
* Started moving Lua class reference to docs.  Expecting people to find
  the class reference material in the source isn’t going to help make it
  approachable.  The docs allow longer explanations, better formatting,
  and cross reference links.

* Added another layout scripting example to the docs.

-goldnpkr.cpp: Minor clean-up.

* Improved the short names for Witch Card and Witch Game clone sets.

* Made Witch Up & Down artwork clickable.

* Added working Video Klein sets where the parent is a working Video
  Klein set to the tiny subtarget.

* Removed history from the header comment - we have version control for
  a readon.
