Subject: [patch] Eliminate generic.colorram

Hi mamedev,

generic.colorram and generic.videoram are unused by the MAME core, and
are simply slots convenient for driver use.  As such, the drivers are
better off using their own driver_data slots for these.  To discourage
further use of colorram, this patch eliminates all current uses of it,
and the uses of videoram as well in the affected drivers.  This is
partially a retrograde step, since ideally we'd like to introduce the
driver_data structs as well for these drivers, but eliminating
colorram and disentangling the various uses of generic makes it on the
balance an improvement IMHO.
