Before pushing, please check that what you're about to push is sane.
Check your local commit log and ensure there isn't anything out-of-place
before pushing to mainline. When things like this happen, it wastes
everyone's time. I really don't need this in a week when real work™ is
busting my balls and I'm behind where I want to be with preparing for
MAME release.
* Document cross-compilation options
* Use lowercase for some libraries that are lowercase in system32 on Windows anyway
* Make USE_BUNDLED_LIB_SDL2=0 not use the bundled SDL
* Move around the debugger hooks to get a small but measurable performance increase
* Remove emucore from external tools
* Improve performance of DSP16 interpreter a little by generating six variants of execution loop
* git version is set by top-level make, not just when GENie runs
* can set IGNORE_GIT=1 for make to ignore git
* git ignored/unavailable uses "unknown" in version string
* mark modified trees as dirty
* note that version now comes from makefile
Extend USE_SYSTEM_LIB_* to support providing the library name and include directory.
To link against system specific lib names and header path: (ref #711)
USE_SYSTEM_LIB_LUA=lua5.3:/usr/include/lua5.3
* Allow std::string to pass through core_file unmolested (reduces temporary allocations)
* Make zip/7z instances of same class with uniform interface
* zippath browsing is broken at the moment
This is another step towards transparent archive support. It's now
possible to access zip and 7z archives with the same code. Nothing is
taking advantage of it yet. There's now some very similar code in
fileio.cpp and clifront.cpp that could be folded at some point.
nl_convert.c. Targets using netlist must now specify this explicitly
with MACHINES["NETLIST"] = true
Added subtarget "nl" which only contains games with netlist elements.

This is a first step to ease synchronisation with a stand alone, e.g.
outside mame, netlist implementation. More signed/unsigned cleanups and
started work on generic truthtable devices. (nw)
