I added (imperfect) memory conflict timing to the SA1.
Before:
- WRAM↔↔ROM ran 7% too fast
- ROM↔↔ROM ran 100% too fast
- WRAM↔↔IRAM ran 7% too fast
- ROM↔↔IRAM ran 7% too fast
- IRAM↔↔IRAM ran 287% too fast
- BWRAM↔↔BWRAM ran 100% too fast
- HDMA ROM↔↔ROM ran 15% too fast
- HDMA WRAM↔↔ROM ran 15% too fast
- DMA ROM↔↔ROM ran 100% too fast
After:
- ROM↔↔ROM runs 14% too fast
- HDMA WRAM↔↔ROM runs 7% too fast
- DMA ROM↔↔ROM runs 4% too fast
If you enable this with the fast PPU + DSP, your framerate in SA1 games
will drop by 51%. And even if you disable it, you'll still lose 9% speed
in SA1 games, and 2% speed in non-SA1 games, because of changes needed
to make this support possible.
By default, I'm leaving this off. Compile with `-DACCURATE_SA1` (or
uncomment the line in sfc/sfc.hpp) if you want to try it out.
This'll almost certainly cause some SA1 regressions, so I guess we'll
tackle those as they arise.

Changelog:
- added \~130 new PAL games to icarus (courtesy of Smarthuman
and aquaman)
- added all three Korean-localized games to icarus
- sfc: removed SuperDisc emulation (it was going nowhere)
- sfc: fixed MSU1 regression where the play/repeat flags were not
being cleared on track select
- nall: cryptography support added; will be used to sign future
databases (validation will always be optional)
- minor shims to fix compilation issues due to nall changes
The real magic is that we now have 25-30% of the PAL SNES library in
icarus!
Signing will be tricky. Obviously if I put the public key inside the
higan archive, then all anyone has to do is change that public key for
their own releases. And if you download from my site (which is now over
HTTPS), then you don't need the signing to verify integrity. I may just
put the public key on my site on my site and leave it at that, we'll
see.
