* galaga: Implement accurate starfield based on reverse eng. 05xx
----------------------------------------------------------------
This commit implements an accurate starfield for Galaga and
Bosconian based on reverse engineering the Namco 05xx chip.
Documentation and notes have been added inline to the code
for the galaga video driver.
Changes in this commit:
1. Regenerates starfield colors based on LFSR state for every frame
2. Pixel accurate to Namco original 05xx
3. Restores one line horizontal starfield shift for every 256
vertical pixel shifts
4. Properly handles LFSR reset (_STARCLR)
5. Restores missing 4 stars from previous implementations
6. Fixes potential issue with the number of stars on screen at any
one time
7. Restores 4 pixel/line scrolling capability (not currently used
for any driver)

RS-232 DCE-DCE Bridge
(nw) This is a simple machine for wiring together two things that want
to plug into an RS-232 port. This means that for DCE-like things (e.g.
serial printers) there's no need to create an extra machine to allow
them to talk to the outside world with the null_modem device. (Also
added some asserts, removed a FIXME, and put the swtpc8212 terminal in
the default RS-232 devices.)
* Changed emu_fatalerror to use util::string_format semantics
* Fixed some incorrectly marked up stuff in build scripts
* Make internal layout compression type a scoped enum (only zlib is supported still, but at least the values aren't magic numbers now)
* Fixed memory leaks in Xbox USB
* There can only be one "perfect quantum" device - enforce that only the root machine can set it, as allowing subdevices to will cause weird issues with slot cards overiding it
* Allow multiple devices to set maximum quantum and use the most restrictive one (it's maximum quantum, it would be minimum interleave)
* Got rid of device_slot_card_interface as it wasn't providing value
* Added a helper template to reduce certain kinds of boilerplate in slots/buses
* Cleaned up some particularly bad slot code (plenty more of that to do), and made some slots more idiomatic
This patch gets it running, and splits it into two front ends, one
being a rs232 bus slot so that is can be used as a terminal option. It
adds the MCM66750 character generator, and implements the MC6845 row
update function. Most of the I/O has been worked out with help from
the CT-82 user manual. The various screen formats and the graphics
modes appear to be working and plausible. Printer support has been
added, and a beeper.
- Removed code no longer used
- Add noexcept where appropriate
- split pparser.[c|h] into ppreprocessor and ptokenizer
- smaller optimizations, e.g. use of std::size_t
- fix lint warnings
fundamental change to show device delegates are configured.
Device delegates are now aware of the current device during
configuration and will resolve string tags relative to it. This means
that device delegates need a device to be supplied on construction so
they can find the machine configuration object. There's a
one-dimensional array helper to make it easier to construct arrays of
device delegates with the same owner. (I didn't make an n-dimensional
one because I didn't hit a use case, but it would be a simple addition.)
There's no more bind_relative_to member - just call resolve() like you
would for a devcb. There's also no need to cast nullptr when creating a
late bind device delegate. The flip side is that for an overloaded or
non-capturing lambda you'll need to cast to the desired type.
There is one less conditional branch in the hot path for calls for
delegates bound to a function pointer of member function pointer. This
comes at the cost of one additional unconditional branch in the hot
path for calls to delegates bound to functoids (lambdas, functions that
don't take an object reference, other callable objects). This applies
to all delegates, not just device delegates.
Address spaces will now print an error message if a late bind error is
encountered while installing a handler. This will give the range and
address range, hopefully making it easier to guess which memory map is
faulty.
For the simple case of allowing a device_delegate member to be
configured, use a member like this:
template <typename... T> void set_foo(T &&...args) { m_foo_cb.set(std::forward<T>(args)...); }
For a case where different delegates need to be used depending on the
function signature, see src/emu/screen.h (the screen update function
setters).
Device delegates now take a target specification and function pointer.
The target may be:
* Target omitted, implying the current device being configured. This
can only be used during configuration. It will work as long as the
current device is not removed/replaced.
* A tag string relative to the current device being configured. This
can only be used during configuration. It will not be callable until
.resolve() is called. It will work as long as the current device is
not removed/replaced.
* A device finder (required_device/optional_device). The delegate will
late bind to the current target of the device finder. It will not
be callable until .resolve() is called. It will work properly if the
target device is replaced, as long as the device finder's base object
isn't removed/replaced.
* A reference to an object. It will be callable immediately. It will
work as long as the target object is not removed/replaced.
The target types and restrictions are pretty similar to what you already
have on object finders and devcb, so it shouldn't cause any surprises.
Note that dereferencing a device finder will changes the effect. To
illustrate this:
...
required_device<some_device> m_dev;
...
m_dev(*this, "dev")
...
// will late bind to "dev" relative to *this
// will work if "dev" hasn't been created yet or is replaced later
// won't work if *this is removed/replaced
// won't be callable until resolve() is called
cb1.set(m_dev, FUNC(some_device::w));
...
// will bind to current target of m_dev
// will not work if m_dev is not resolved
// will not work if "dev" is replaced later
// will be callable immediately
cb2.set(*m_dev, FUNC(some_device::w));
...
The order of the target and name has been reversed for functoids
(lambdas and other callable objects). This allows the NAME macro to
be used on lambdas and functoids. For example:
foo.set_something(NAME([this] (u8 data) { m_something = data; }));
I realise the diagnostic messages get ugly if you use NAME on a large
lambda. You can still give a literal name, you just have to place it
after the lambda rather than before. This is uglier, but it's
intentional. I'm trying to drive developers away from a certain style.
While it's nice that you can put half the driver code in the memory map,
it detracts from readability. It's hard to visualise the memory range
mappings if the memory map functions are punctuated by large lambdas.
There's also slightly higher overhead for calling a delegate bound to a
functoid.
If the code is prettier for trivial lambdas but uglier for non-trivial
lambdas in address maps, it will hopefully steer people away from
putting non-trivial lambdas in memory maps.
There were some devices that were converted from using plain delegates
without adding bind_relative_to calls. I fixed some of them (e.g.
LaserDisc) but I probably missed some. These will likely crash on
unresolved delegate calls.
There are some devices that reset delegates at configuration complete or
start time, preventing them from being set up during configuration (e.g.
src/devices/video/ppu2c0x.cpp and src/devices/machine/68307.cpp). This
goes against the design principles of how device delegates should be
used, but I didn't change them because I don't trust myself to find all
the places they're used.
I've definitely broken some stuff with this (I know about asterix), so
report issues and bear with me until I get it all fixed.

buildoptions_cpp are only applied to c++ files and buildoptions_objcpp are only

macOS) from working.

There's an outstanding validation error from the HP98543 DIO video card
not using a valid crystal value. Someone needs to find a picture of the
card and confirm or deny the existence of the 39.504MHz crystal.
The various start/reset overrides are bugs waiting to happen. It's not
immediately obvious that the ones run earlier can end up being called
multiple times if subsequent ones throw missing dependencies exceptions.
They're a relic of when everything from the old C-style drivers was
thrown into classes all jumbled together.
