* Added MBC30 as a distinct slot option for documentation purposes.
* Added heuristics to detect MBC30 for GBX and plain ROM dump files.
* mbc.cpp: Disabled noisy logging.
Allow cartridges to install themselves rather than putting accesses
through trampolines. Use memory banks even when they aren't installed
directly, as it exposes script bindings and declares intent.
Added support for MBC6 Flash, and MBC7 two-axis accelerometer and 128*16
or 256*16 serial EEPROM. Added basic support for Game Boy Camera image
capture (various M64282FP processing features are not implemented).
Improved MBC3 real-time clock emulation.
Added basic support for Hudson Soft HuC-1 cartridges (infrared I/O not
supported) and HuC-3 cartridges (real-time clock and infrared I/O not
supported).
Added full support for Vast Fame VF001 cartridges.
Separated Mega Duck flat and banked ROM cartridge types, and allowed
software list items to specify whether a cartridge has fixed and
selectable 16K banks or a single selectable 32K bank.
Added support for RAM sizes smaller than 8K that will be mirrored in the
0xA000-0xBFFF area. Implemented correct ROM mapping for sizes that are
not powers of two. Corrected size of MBC2 internal static RAM.
Added support for various hypothetical cartridge wirings, such as MBC5
with outer ROM banking for up to 128M, M161 and Wisdom Tree cartridges
with flat RAM, and MBC1 or MBC5 with fewer than the maximum number of
inner ROM bank lines used.
Fixed logo spoofing logic for many pirate cartridges, including Rocket
Games, Sachen MMC1 and MMC2, Sintax, Li Cheng, and Niutoude. Identified
fine bank mask register for GBCK003 board.
Added basic support for GBX format ROM images. Added heuristic for
detecting raw dumps of M161 cartridge images. Removed unreliable
unlicensed cartridge detection heuristics - these need to be
reimplemented in a better way.
