I'm not sure this API is a great idea - see inline comment on 796abaf7f3
I realise it seems intuitive, but it breaks with a use-after-free (not even a
validity error) if you replace/remove the target device. Implementing it in a
way that isn't fragile and doesn't hurt the performance of -romident,
-validate and -listxml seems impossible. If it causes developer confusing and
things start breaking, back to literal tags we go for this case.
* Clean up some corner cases in layouts with repeating blocks
* Make complay.py validate many more elements and attributes
* Make complay.py easier to use for just validating a layout
* Remove redundant view from Sega VMU layout
* Make buttons visually respond to input in whousetc.lay
* Add view with LED displays as well as terminal for aim65_40 and use repeats
* Clean up some outdated "game" terminology in clifront.cpp
* Initiaise a couple of members in tap/tun network module
* Start documenting layout format
* taptun: add support for Windows
Looking for feedback only at this point, because it's the first time I've attempted any OSD stuff - be gentle.
This extends the existing taptun OSD module to support Windows through the TAP-Windows6 driver (https://github.com/OpenVPN/tap-windows6).
* TAP-Windows6 is GPLv2, however only the header file is required in MAME, and the driver itself is entirely optional.
* I've tried to minimise the size of the diff, rather than completely separate the Windows/non-Windows implementations - not sure which is preferable in this case.
* The license file has Mac(?) line-endings - unsure if they should be normalized or used verbatim.
* Uncertain about the non-Windows case (or the Windows SDL case) - existing code uses __linux__, but I'm not clear on how that works with OSX, for example?
* I can't claim this actually "works" yet, because I don't know enough to configure the tap end of it properly to get networking doing something useful, but I will get there and correct anything necessary in a subsequent real PR.
* minor fixes/improvements (nw)
* Use Unicode Windows APIs, and UTF-8 for MAME
* Deal with unterminated registry string values
* Cancel any pending I/O in destructor

New not working software list additions

ibm5170: Mitsumi IDE CD-ROM Driver [Justin Kerk]
- Screen raw parameters (circuitry is surprisingly similar to Galaxian)
- Addressable latch for video CPU
- VBLANK callback instead of MCFG_DEVICE_VBLANK_INT (interrupt also acknowledged now)
- Separate machine configuration for wcup90, which now displays something
This is damn sensitive code, and generates differences all over the
place we don't really explain. The changes should be justified by
themselves and tested in collaboration with Tafoid to ensure the
differences are not a problem.
