along with various updates and cleanups
* Converted intv driver to use native Intellivision resolution of 159x192.
Scaled intvkbd driver so carts look correct.
* Added overscan borders. Approximate, but at least measured on an actual Intellivision.
* Added a STIC header file, defining various object sizes, and register and bit names.
* Cleaned up render_color_stack_mode() and render_fg_bg_mode() loops,
eliminating the ugly fix-ups at the end of each row.
* Updated the code found in UNUSED_FUNCTION, but neither compiled nor tested it.
