* softlist.cpp: Add support for a 'notes' field to store information about a software list or software list item. [Wilbert Pol]
* Add software list and software notes to minimaws
* Got more slot card classes out of headers.
* Changed most of the Apple II cards still looking up ROM regions
manually to use required_region_ptr.
* Removed an unreferenced function leftover from copy-pasting another
device from the Videx Uniprint device.
- Track write accesses rather than read accesses
- Actually install the taps when the trackmem command is executed
- Correct cell addresses for address-shifted spaces in Qt and Windows memory viewers
* Turned `core_file` into an implementation of `random_read_write`.
* Turned PNG errors into a standard error category.
* Added a helper for generating what look like derived classes on-the-fly.
* Added a PC-6001 cartridge software list XML, and hooked up to the driver;
* Fixed a regression bug with machine_reset fn where PC-6001mkII was implicitly overriding its memory model when a cart was inserted, causing being stuck at POST;
* Improved irq handling and removed a couple kludges, fixing hangs caused by multiple irqs being fired at the same time;
* Added PC-6601SR "Mr. PC", and improved the specific SR video mode already used by PC-6001mk2SR;
* Refactored PC-6001mkIISR / PC-6601SR memory model to use address_map_device, allowing BIOS booting and .cas loading in mode 6. Replace AY8910 with YM2203;
* Add keyboard inputs F1-F10, and fixed the specific irq vector dispatch;
* Add preliminary FDC internal/external interface. Hooked up PC80S31 to external i/f as a proof of concept;
* Fixed timer enable (fixes Yakyukyo and Punchball Mario boots), and fixed different timer resolution with PC-6001mk2SR so that cursor blinking happens at the right frequency;

This reduces how frequently the Apple II drivers need to be recompiled
when a random device changes.
Also, this turned up three things that are apparently not hooked up in
the PC Transported card.
