vidbrain: The Computational Language [hap, Sean Riddle, Ianoid]
* Look for MOC in QT_HOME/libexec if not found in QT_HOME/bin
* Use the Qt6* libraries if the Qt version is >= 6
* Switch the include paths for QAction & QActionGroup for Qt >= 6
* Replace the deprecated + operator for keys with |
Names in the global namespace need to be specific. Making them overly
generic is a very bad idea, and leads to confusion and conflicts.
Device type names must always be in the global namespace, and most
device classes are in the global namespace.
Changing members like m_votrax to m_sc01 doesn't help understand the
code. If there's only one Votrax speech module in the system, it's
obvious what it is.
This reverts commit c6f0e83ecf.
This isolates the ATA disk drive interface implementation from the
physical parallel ATA device interface. The ATA Flash PC Card is no
longer a kind of parallel ATA device.
- use address_maps instead of catch-all handlers;
- implement rd4 and rd5 line views;
- converted a800_rom_williams_device to the new system, make almost every entry in mega* and prisma* SW to actually boot;
- bus/a800: implement maxflash_1mb / maxflash_8mb devices.
* This allows loading arbitrary collection of .xex files built thru Maxflash Cartridge Studio program as flash ROM binaries;
- bus/a800: implement sic_128kb / sic_256kb / sic_512kb flash ROM devices;
- bus/a800: implement ast2k, atrax, Blizzard 32kb, Adawliah, SpartaDOS 128KB, A5200 Super Cart variants;

* Use "-rom file.bin" with the user-defined ROM card to make your own custom Apple. File must be 12KiB and goes in
D0/D8/E0/E8/F0/F8 order.
a2bus: wire up a method to assert the reset line on the slots. This is important for the ROM card. [R. Belmont]
apple/apple2.cpp,apple2e.cpp,apple2gs.cpp,apple3.cpp: Reset the a2bus when the 6502/65816 is reset. [R. Belmont]
apple/apple2gs.cpp: Reset the softswitches like a IIe on Control-Reset. [R. Belmont]

- Adds a very preliminary implementation of nVidia Riva 128 PCI card, added as a temp target in pc/pcipc.cpp (pcinv3);
- video/pc_vga.cpp: Rework and fix VGA input sense (necessary to allow Riva 128 to survive POST);
- video/pc_vga_s3.cpp: Fix s3_vga_device inheritance (was subclassing from ati_vga_device)
