* Got rid of the special-casing for the "mess" subtarget name.
* Got rid of the MESS-specific Windows resources, emuator info source
and man page.
* Added subtarget name to the internal name and original name in Windows
resources.
-ui: Put the system-specific items on the input settings menu together,
and fixed the crosshair visibility settings.
Added menus for controlling toggle inputs, and showing recognised input
devices and control state. Moved input menu options off main menu to a
submenu, as there are a lot of them now.
Moved menu heading drawing into base class, added headings to more
menus, and made headings more consistent with the menu items used to
reach them. Also made terminology more consistent.
Changed the default names for buttons and hat switches/D-pads to use
1-based numbering. DirectInput still returns 0-based button numbers for
some devices.
Removed local copy of MinGW xaudio2.h as it’s now included in the MSYS2
package. Also fixed building the DirectSound sound output module with
the SDL OSD on Windows - the Windows headers are sensitive to include
order.
Started adding documentation for menus, to hopefully help people find
menus they remember seeing but can't recall how to access.
For translators, this makes terminology more consistent. In particular:
* "Settings" is preferred over "configuration" in a number of places, as
the latter can be construed as referring specifically to settings
stored in .cfg files in the cfg_directory folder. Also, references to
saving machine configuration could be interpreted as relating to the
settings on the "Machine Configuration" menu.
* The controls on host input devices (e.g. keys, buttons, joystick axes)
are referred to as "controls", while emulated inputs are referred to
as "inputs".
* The menus for assigning host controls to emulated inputs are called
"input assignments" menus to distinguish them from other input
settings menus.
* Combinations of controls that can be assigned to emulated inputs are
referred to as "combinations" rather than "sequences".
* The potentially confusing term "ROM set" has been removed altogether.
Use "short name" to refer to a device or system's identifier.
* "System" is used in almost places to refer to a complete, runnable
system rather than "Machine".
* "Driver" is now only used to refer to source files where systems or
devices are defined - it is no longer used to refer to individual
systems.
* A few more menus have message context for the messages. This makes it
a bit easier to guess where the messages are used. It also means you
can use different translations in different places if necessary (e.g.
if the same English text should be translated differently as an item
in one menu and as a heading in another).
- Every file in src/mame/{includes,drivers,audio,machine} with the
exception of konamiic.txt has to appear in one and only one of the
projects of arcade.lua or mess.lua (ignoring mameshared)
- Files in mameshared must exist in mame.lua
* cpu/dsp56156: Fixed ANDI, fixed BFCLR errata, fixed DEC24 not affecting flags.
* cpu/dsp56156: Added proper devcb_write16 for Port C output.
* plygonet.cpp: Fixed banking and tightened up VRAM access.
* plygonet.cpp: Account for endianness in tilemap accesses.
* plygonet.cpp: Switched to logmacro, merged into one file, and general code cleanup.

-20pacgal: Add support for terminal
* Make netlist/plib noexcept issue workaround trigger for clang 8 or
Apple clang 11.0.0.
* Disable lifetime DSE optimisation for GCC 10.2 (this may be an issue
in GNU libstdc++ rather than GCC itself - using compiler version as a
proxy for standard library version is bad, but it's the path of least
resistance for now).
Updated Space Invaders C.V. and Space Invaders Part II input definitions
based on schematics and manuals.
Got Space Invaders specific stuff out of the Midway 8080 B/W base class.
Got some of the game-specific stuff out of the _8080bw_state class.
It's still a bit of a mess because sound hardware is implemented in the
driver classes so some games pull in a more derived class than they
really should just for sound handlers.
Got rid of the duplicate joystick inputs in rollingc.
Fixed cocktail mode input and DIP switches in a few games.

* Removed execution bit on certain files
I have separated out the raw processing code into `ppmf.cpp`. I have
also taken first steps to clean the abi identification.
The code submitted now supports:
a) The unknown virtual inheritance case with specific code for MSVC for
simple (i.e. scalar, void, reference, pointer) return types using the
optimized code. This is the test case only supported under MSVC and
which should return 7. Please have a look at the code. Basically
m_vptr_offset is an index into a pointer table. It needs to be
multiplied by `sizeof(void *)`.
b) If you enable PPMF_EXPERIMENTAL complex return type member functions
for MSVC will also use the optimized code path. This is explained in
detail in the code in ppmf, including caveats and possible solutions.
c) Enabling PPMF_USE_MAME_DELEGATES will use `src/lib/util/delegate.h`
as a replacement for `ppmf.h`. This allows to run the same tests
(`nltool -c tests` from standalone build) as for the ppmf code.
d) The code now also supports `clang-cl`
e) sizeof(size_t) may be different on build targets.
Make plib::hash use uint64 to ensure consistent static solver hashes
across platforms. This fixes loading static solvers (if enabled) on
EMSCRIPTEN.
Don't treat hypen and dot as the same thing - it will cause issues with
pacakge revisions. Cleaned up some Lua code as well.
Also show warnings about potentially uninitialised stuff with GCC 12,
just don't make them fatal errors.

Super 97 (Ver. 1.00) [Ioannis Bampoulas]
- hexion.cpp: used finders and other small cleanups
- powerins.cpp: corrected one sprite ROM for powerinsc
- bottom9.cpp: finders and other minor cleanups
- pc8001.cpp: initialized a variable which was causing problems in regression testing and actually save some states
- seta.cpp: used correct ROM for daiohp2, fixes various GFX glitches
This will hopefully work around the very unhelpful uninitialised
variable warning that seems to be triggered by using Sol's get function
with std::optional<T> or sol::optional<T> on Linux.
* Enabled GCC lifetime dead store elimination optimisation.
* emu/device.h: Don't pre-clear memory for drivers. Ivan Vangelista
fixed at least the majority of things that crashed outright, and
Robbbert initialised variables that coverity complained about. It's
unlikely anything will break due to this.
* sound/discrete.h: Explicitly initialise members of discrete "devices"
to zero. I don't see a way around doing this in headers due to the
macro soup used to build the constructors.
* sound/mos6581.cpp: Moved creation of the SID core to device_start and
explictly initialised members of the SID core structures. These
structures are in internal headers, so they won't cause downstream
recompiles.
-Lua engine: Made I/O port manager type_seq a bit more tolerant of
omitted arguments.
* machine/laserdsc.cpp: Added functionality to retrieve if a disc is CAV.
* machine/ldv4200hle.cpp: Added high-level Pioneer LD-V4200 player emulation.

Boa Sorte! (Golden Poker prequel HW) [Jorge Silva]
- galaxian.cpp: added correct dip switches for redufob3 and dip locations for the redufo bootlegs [Guru]
Addressed pure virtual function call crash on end of emulation session
if you haven't explicitly removed all address space taps, memory
corruption on end of emulation session if you haven't explicitly removed
all address space change notifiers, and symbol being garbage-collected
out from under you while you have parsed expressions or other symbol
tables that depend on them.
Removed the copy constructor for parsed expressions as the underlying
C++ copy constructor appears to be broken, and simplified symbol table
constructors. Also made symbol table add methods return the new entry
to avoid the need for an extra lookup.
Fixed breakpoint/watchpoint objects being inappropriately copied into
the tables returned by bplist() and wplist(), allowing the enabled
property to be modifiable for breakpoint and watchpoint objects in Lua.
Fixed drivers and devices causing a new memory pass-through handler to
be allocated on each soft reset, and fixed multiple instances of taps
being installed in the event the machine is reset before the tap is
removed.
Added classes for managing broadcast subscriptions, and adapted address
spaces to use this for change notifications.

------------------
Rastan Saga (bootleg, Japan Rev 1, earlier code base) [Fabrice Arzeno]
timeplt.cpp: added a note about a spaceplta PCB with a char ROM taken from the original [Trol]
* Created an initial file system implementation for OS-9 under the CoCo
* Minor fixes to directory entry handling
* Changed to use fsblk_t::r[8|16|24|32]b()
- Changed the above functions to be const
- Remove the iodevice_t classification, which was not used that much and was incomplete anyway. Image device implementations must now provide their own instance names and brief instance names. Several new parent classes have been created to make it easier to use the old standard names.
- Change must_be_loaded from a pure virtual function to be overridden in implementations to a getter for a base class property that can be set on the host side (as was formerly made possible for NES, MD and "generic" cartridge slots) but defaults to false for all types. This restrictive property has been unset for a small number of cases.
- Create parent classes for paper tape and magnetic tape devices. At present these are dummy classes that do little to nothing, but may help unify implementations in the future.
- Change several member functions to take std::string_view parameters rather than const std::string & or const char *.
- Make update_names take into account brief names, as discussed in PR #2555.
- Remove the obsolete uses_file_extension function (which used thread-unsafe strtok).
* portfolio_ccm_slot: Change image type from "cartridge" to "memcard"
* i7220, datapack: Add custom instance names that weren't there before
* pc11: Add note
* Reimplemented support for the CoCo's RS-DOS filesystem on top of the "fsmgr" framework (currently read only)
* Added support for file_type and ascii_flag metadata, minor bug fix decoding file allocation table entries
* Creating a "CoCo Raw Disk" format and changing the CoCo RS-DOS filesystem to use it
* 1. Adding COCO_RAWDSK to all.cpp
2. Fixing sector order on CoCo raw disk
- Eliminate dependencies on emu.h, replacing most fatalerror calls and floptool's ersatz emu_fatalerror class with standard exception classes
- Use range-based std::string constructors in some methods
- Move filesystem metadata handling to a separate source file
- Eliminate src/emu as an include path for libformats (necessitates kludge in ti99_dsk.cpp)
* Research into thoop and squash 'refrsh rate' protection [Victor Fernandez (City Game), Peter Ferrie, David Haywood]
- prevents freeze when dying in stage 4 of Thunder Hoop, and bad text on continue in Squash
* Minor changes to various drivers (todo, comments, text strings).
* ec1847: Moved to pc.cpp, it's a generic OEM clone.
* Use proper name for serial/parallel ports card in ec1840 and ec1841.
* superga2: Moved to arcade section, updated emulation status.
