* autofire, inputmacro: Made left/right repeat when held (makes setting
long delays/durations easier).
* autofire, inputmacro: Added headings for devices in input selection
menus (helps when controller buttons have identical names, e.g. AES)
* autofire: Made intial selection when moving between menus intuitive,
log some errors on saving/loading configuration.
* autofire: Fixed two errors in Chinese localisations.
Put the description for systems in the info box - it's useful for the
fruit machines with very long names that are truncated in the list.
Also stopped truncating manufactuer and parent name in the info box.
Made the text layout class capable of handling lines containing
combinatations of left/centre/right-justified text and got rid of the
legacy UI manager text wrapping function. Made the system/software
selection menus and the info viewer share the same code for formatting
info text. This means the multi-column layout works properly in the
info viewer now, and the code is a lot simpler. Also the
system/software selection menus don't have to redo the text layout every
frame now.
Made the info viewer update the text layout if the output aspect ratio
changes, and cleaned up more legacy code. The lines in the info viewer
are no longer bogus "menu items", and there's a lot less special-case
code to support it in the base menu class.
This commit includes an update to the Chinese translations from YuiFAN.
Extended the memory access prefixes in debugger expressions to support
address space names.
Made the debugger history command aware of how much history it has
collected, and added a help topic for it to the built-in debugger help.
Started updating the documentation for the web site, and corrected some
of the more misleading built-in debugger help.
Made some corrections to Chinese localisation after discussion with
YuiFAN.
Darkened the UI red colour a little.
cpu/m6502/st2205u.h: Marked sound imperfect.
Trying to collect messages from everything at once hits some limit in
xgettext and causes messages to be lost no, so I've split it up by the
second-level source directories.
For some reason xgettext thinks overloaded Lua functions are blasphemy,
so that has to be worked around, too.
* frontend: Added support for message context to localisations.
* frontend: Added string_view versions of the message lookup functions.
* frontend: Added a few more folder options to the internal UI.
* emu/softlist.cpp: Use more appropriate containers.
* Switched to Python 3 by default - this will become a requirement.
* Updated msgfmt.py for message context support.
* frontend: Show all software item info in the internal UI.
* frontend: Search alternate titles in software selection menu.
* 3rdparty/utf8proc: Updated to v2.6.1 (has several fixes).
* frontend: Added software filters for common info fields.
* frontend: Allow UI manager to hold onto persistent session data.
* frontend: Cache software lists for eight machines.
* frontend: Added support for loading localised system names.
* frontend: Add UI for selecting localised system names.

Before pushing, please check that what you're about to push is sane.
Check your local commit log and ensure there isn't anything out-of-place
before pushing to mainline. When things like this happen, it wastes
everyone's time. I really don't need this in a week when real work™ is
busting my balls and I'm behind where I want to be with preparing for
MAME release.
* Change makefile rules to treat mame.pot as a target so rules can depend on it
* Put mame.pot inside the build directory so it will get cleaned
* Couldn't get xgettext to scrape lua and C++ in the same command and still remove stale strings
* Use larger strings and format specifiers to fix some localisation issues
- Issue with "None" lacking context in Russian and Turkish translations
- Issue with "Not implemented" changing depending on the noun in Serbian
- Issues with lua plugins not allowing for languages with different grammar/punctuation

Note that to run make translation you need to patch GNU gettext to support C++14 digit grouping.
