util/bitmap.cpp, util/palette.cpp: Marked lots of things constexpr.
Bitmaps don't throw exceptions on allocation failure, they just become
invalid. Almost nothing in MAME actually checks for this.
emu/profiler.cpp: Abort if the profile stack overflows rather than
throwing an exception. This is a developer feature and if it overflows,
the code is broken. Calling a noreturn noexcept function generates less
code than throwing an exception, which adds up.
util/strformat.cpp: Traded away some unnecessary flexibility for more
compact code. The stream objects must derive from std::basic_ostream
now - they can't just be any old objects with the expected operators.

* emu: add defer_access() method, which is useful for keeping the cpu in a loop restarting the current
instruction to emulate waitstates.
* add HP82321A Basic Language Coprocessor
This adds support for the HP82321A Basic language coprocessor, which emulates a HP9816 system with a 68K cpu. See http://www.hpmuseum.net/display_item.php?hw=681 for more details and software to run on this card.
* This lets you use emu.wait(...) directly without mucking around creating coroutines.
* Allow emu.wait to accept an attotime argument.
* Added a couple more wait helper functions.
-emu/profiler.h: Actually use scope-based profiling helpers.
* This makes the comment at the top of emu/profile.h less dishonest, and makes it easier to write exception-safe code.
* Got rid of some do { ... } while (0) loops that only existed so break could be used like a goto.
Functionally, the only difference between the system definitions is that
GAMEL lets you specify an additional internal layout and SYST lets you
specify a compatible system. COMP and CONS are just aliases for SYST -
the aliases can be phased out.
Removed arcade.flt and mess.flt altogether - opinion seems to be split
between misinterpreting them as fully supported and considering them
unnecessary. They were marginally useful as a performance test for
makedep.py, but that isn't important. We still have nl.flt as an
example .flt file (although it doesn't use "-" exclude directives).
Moved the UI active flag from the machine to the UI manager. Nothing
else uses it anyway (it's still accessible to scripts).
bandit.cpp: use the new functionality in pci.cpp. [R. Belmont]
macpci.cpp: Fix Grand Central PCI address now that we're interpreting the config address correctly. [R. Belmont]
* hng64.cpp : add a global disable for the tile replacement 'animation' (aka 'auto-anim') which is used to stop the crowd animating in some scenes of buriki attract
