- Updated the CD software list with everything from the latest update of
the Neo Kobe Collection (too many new entries to list in a commit
description).
- Tested all software list entries, added supported status and emulation
issues for each one. Some games need testing on real hardware to make
sure the issues are emulation-related; I'll do this at a later date.
- Added "usage" tag for games that require serials or manual protection.
- Added disk 2 of the floppy version of Brandish Renewal, since it's
used as a key disk for the CD version.
- Fixed copy-paste error (interface="fmt_cdrom") for hybrid discs copied
from the FM Towns list.
- Replaced the Sweet Days CHD with a properly converted one.
- Some minor consistency / spelling fixes on descriptions.
* new machines marked as NOT WORKING - Play TV Ping Pong [Sean Riddle]
The code on this one is much closer to Taito Nostalgia, seemingly only using the callfar / returnfar extended opcodes, this further makes me think that XaviX Tennis is a Super XaviX title instead.
* some guesswork (nw)
* it sure *looks* like the dma (nw)

Super Medal Fighters (Japan 970228) [ShouTime, Surgeville, Sean Sutton, George Walsh, Evan Korzon, Dulleron, SpinalFeyd, Gyrovision, Bryce Van Horn, Paul Vining, Charles MacDonald, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union]
* Missed a couple escape sequences. (nw)
* A little more escaping, acronym fixes, fix oddity in symlist (nw)
* Update debugger internal help to match docs (nw)
* Lowercasing for CPU in command parameters, fix casing on ASCII. (nw)
MAME_INCLUDES_<FILENAME>_H is now the standardized way for a MAME include header, starting with a double underscore is reserved by the C++ standard go figure (nw)
- Make read_byte/word and write_byte/word overridable virtual functions (80186 MMU probably will need to override this in the future)
- Make fetch_op an alias for fetch (implementations were identical already)
- Remove sreg argument from read_byte/word and write_byte/word (it was almost always m_easeg as set by calc_addr, sometimes with dubious evaluation order)
- Restrict logic for separating address spaces for CS/ES/SS accesses to 8086/8088 (later x86 models do not broadcast the descriptors)
- Encapsulate m_e16 within the only function that used it

- Make the global flipping functions of driver_device protected so as not to be accessible from within subdevices
- Eliminate the flip_screen_set_no_update kludge
