[Robert Tuccitto]

-pc: remove unused ibm5150_ppi8255_interface [shattered]
pc, ec1841: unbreak DBG_LOG macro
mc1502: FDC xtal freq is 16 MHz
asst128: another PC XT clone
ec1841: add softlist, set ´v2´ as default BIOS to avoid resets

-nes.c: greatly improved save state stability, by adding
registration of on-cart VRAM/WRAM. [Fabio Priuli]

-gameboy/gbcolor: simplified video code by reducing the number
of memory pointers used, and added support for save state
registration. [Fabio Priuli]

-slotify pc joystick [Carl]

-Apollo updates: [Hans Ostermeyer]
* Added 4 and 8 plane color graphics board support
* Renamed dn3x00 to dn3x00_19i and dn3x00_15i to dn3x00
* Reworked video/apollo.c into class apollo_graphics
* Fixed recent regression where the arrow keys moved the mouse
pointer
