Someone needs to get MS QA to put some non-trivial modern C++
compliation tests in the acceptance tests for their C++ compiler. Maybe
MAME could even be a candidate. Well, that might be a plan if MS still
had any QA. At least this makes some lines shorter (at the cost of
needing more lines).
These dumps contain no valid or even interesting data; the data (once swapped) just counts up from 0180 to 01BF. (Did an EEPROM programmer read back the commands by mistake?) At least quizpun2 can successfully reprogram the EEPROM if the data it fetches from there is invalid.

The existing disk image was replaced by a new one created from the
master disk.
dsk_dsk: Increase maximum cell count
This allows for slightly out of spec disk images to run, like Theatre
Europe on the Einstein.
[Lord Sméagol (Carl Lloyd-Parker)]
* Basically, initialisers go in the constructor arguments, and things for setting format go in set_format.
* Initialisation patterns can be specified with an enum discriminator or with a FUNC and optionally a tag.
* Formats can be specified with an enum discriminator or a size and function pointer.
* You must always supply the number of entries when setting the format.
* When initislising with a paletter initialisation member, you can specify the entries and indirecte entries together.
* The palette_device now has a standard constructor, so use .set_entries if you are specifying entry count with no format/initialisation.
* Also killed an overload on delegates that wasn't being useful.
(nw) VIA interrupt remains disconnected in tv950 due to CRTC-related problems. This is fairly likely to cause regressions in other drivers which may need explicit writes to PB6.
