Core updates and bounty updates (since version 1.6.4)

Despite the short release cycle, there has been a fair bit of core work since the 1.6.4 release, including some significant contributions driven by the recently implemented bounty system. In no particular order:

Core updates

Snes9x 2005


JamSilva has been pushing various updates/fixes/improvements:
* Loading savestates seems to no longer cause segfaults
* Improved sound in the non-plus version – especially noticeable in Secret of Evermore.
* Working SPC7110 emulation (quickly tested with Tengai Makyou Zero and Momotarou Dentetsu Happy).
* CPU emulation fixes – E.V.O – Search for Eden
* CPU emulation fixes – Wizardry V
* The SA1 fixes correct the VLDC9 “WORST” level transition problem I mentioned in #36.
