that 1.2 is required to overwrite 0.13's stuff; really, 0.13 is needed only for `gcc`. So the sequence goes 0.13's `gcc` -> 1.2 -> BassAceGold's libraries -> make `libds2a.a`.
DMA function names changed to match BassAceGold's.

* before rendering a background;
* before rendering sprites;
* while rendering more than 128 samples of audio at once ("Prefer fluid video");
* after every 16 scanlines of CPU execution instead of every 1;
* while waiting for an audio buffer to become available;
* while killing time between frames with fast-forward disabled.
Controller presses and releases are now combined in a DS button bitfield using a shorter 32-bit algorithm. See entry.cpp:NDSSFCAccumulateJoypad and #define ACCUMULATE_JOYPAD in the source.
This is still not suitable for playing platformers frame-perfectly, but it's much better than half a second of latency to press or release a button, and one still needs to press buttons a bit more than just light taps. I'd say 50 milliseconds is the latency now. Platformers requiring more precision can be played with frameskip 0.
DMA does not require double-buffered displaying, so synchronise the controller more often by disabling double-buffered displaying again.

Add preliminary support for drawing emulated screens with DS2 DMA.

#define'd away, GUI volatility is simply removed.

FOREVER_16_BIT_SOUND and FOREVER_STEREO and use them throughout the code.
This is essentially commit 6b36e79013d4c9273a96a9783a2bccdb516f174a, but for sound instead of graphics.

Run the opcode as a tail call from the address calculation. This cuts on the needed return instructions.
Pass the opcode address as a parameter; this keeps it in a register most of the time and avoids memory stores.

selection interface freezes when it gets to the folder containing Mightymo's cheat files, whereas it did not do this before with the converted Mightymo cheats. (335 files -> 679, though.)

lose keys entirely sometimes, and could otherwise delay a button press or release by 200 ms.
This was the entire reason I created the fork, and I finally did it! It syncs the controls every scanline of a frame, which costs about 60,000 MIPS instructions per frame to deal with. Luckily, the processor runs at 396 MHz, which means the cost of checking the controls is 1% of the CPU's power.

SNES Open Bus is a quirk of the memory subsystem that allow reads of invalid addresses to return the last byte read from memory. However, it is seldom needed by a game, and it costs 1 to 3 MIPS instructions per SNES instruction to emulate.
If you need SNES Open Bus, you can remove -DNO_OPEN_BUS from the Makefile.

Also raise the CPU's clock speed to 396 MHz by default, instead of 360 MHz, when emulating a ROM.

emulator.

With the MIPS instruction cache, this means that two consecutive SNES CPU instructions using e.g. the same addressing style or the same opcode have a chance that the second one will use the first one's code and that it will be cached.
