--------------
- Naomi/Chihiro documentation update [f205v]

- seta.c: Added PCB layout & dipswitch locations for Magic Speed.

- m72.c: Hooked up mcu to imgfightj. [David Haywood]

- 04862: smashtv and clones: Smash T.V. crashes while a game begins.

- megatech.c: added a new revision of the bios [iGREKKESS, ElBarto]

- Added some bits to get the V53 (V33 core) running at least some sane
sound code for hng64.c There is no sound yet tho, and the banking
mechanism will need hooking up but the initial banks should be
correct. [David Haywood]

- vsnes.c: Documentation update and corrects several roms names. Added
set information to game names where possible. Tried to correction
region information by copyright.
[Mark F., Brian Troha, The Dumping Union]

- "Analog" Pokey Update [Couriersud]
* Derived internal resistance calculation from Pokey documentation.
This is a 4-bit parallel resistor (High-Z mos "devices") network
to ground. The result is a non-linear resistance function.
* Added low-pass filter support and opamp/resistor stages to the
pokey driver. This is not as good as complete discrete emulation,
but a lot better than the linear approximation we had before.
* Changed a couple of drivers to use the new output volume
calculation.

filtering)

bug#03990 as well. [James Wallace]

- naomi: Make illvelo boot, probably others too [O. Galibert]

- model2.c: Updated several sets with Sega's game and / or ROM board
ID#. Corrected the sound CPU & sample roms for the Manx TT set (as
