Added comments with V.24 interchange circuit numbers and names to
rs232.h to make the meanings of the abbreviated signal names clearer.
Moved a few slot card classes out of headers and into anonymous
namespaces to reduce compile depedencies and exported symbols.
Transliterated a Korean NES game title.

Note that since my last pull request on the c64_cass.xml, the Ultimate Tape Archive V3.0 has been released with an additional 500 tape files. I have barely scratched the surface with the existing V2.0 set so I had better pull my socks up!!

Added a validity check to ensure address space names are tag-like and unique, since they're now used as identifiers in debugger commands.
Extended the syntax for target addresses to allow them to be qualified with a colon followed by an optional device tag and/or address space name. If only the device needs to be specified, a debugger CPU number may also be used. This makes commands like bpset and wpset more flexible, as they can operate on CPUs other than the currently visible CPU. Commands like find, fill, dump and load are more flexible as they can access any space of any device.
Removed now-redundant CPU parameters from many commands, and renamed pcatmemp to pcatmem for consistency with other commands. Extended region syntax for saver/loadr to support tags relative to the visible CPU (e.g. you can use "." for the region with the same name as the visible CPU, or "^sibling" syntax). Added an optional root device parameter to memdump. Changed interpretation of Boolean values to support numeric expressions as well as true/false strings and literal 1/0.
Added checks that the specified device is CPU-like to various commands that require a CPU (e.g. focus). Previously these commands would crash or trigger an assertion failure if a tag for a non-CPU devices was specified.
Fixed the cpunum symbol so it uses the same rules for determining what is or isn't a CPU as parameter parsing.
Made device_t sanitise subtags better. Previously you could cause an assertion failure or crash MAME by giving it unexpected relative tags via Lua or the debugger.
Added help topic alias support, and reworked the data structures to improve the performance of looking up debugger commands and help topics. Removed the "ref" parameter from debugger command functions (std::bind can hold extra argument values for you if you need them). Also added an error message if duplicate debugger commands are registered.
Updated help for commands that changed syntax, and also updated summaries for some commands that had changed in the past without corresponding help updates.
* Also set correct board type for Yeong-eo Pyramid, fixing title screen graphics, and identified it as a (licensed) clone of Dongdongnao II.

The previous algorithm would spawn tasks but wait for them in sequential order. This is not necessarily optimal, and with these changes we will respond to whichever task completes first.
On my computer (Quad Core 2), this triples the speed of a full -listxml

* Removed pseudo board types SXROM_A and SOROM_A that are simply SXROM and SOROM boards fitted with MMC1A chips.
* Provide the equivalent behavior directly in SXROM and SOROM by letting each board know which MMC1 type it has from the existing feature in the softlist.
