Game controller input is now enabled whenever a compatible device is
connected. The keymapper's keymaps are refreshed when a joystick is added
or removed.
Fixes#10366.
The Miles MT-32 MIDI driver extends MidiDriver_BASE, but does not
override its sysEx method, which does nothing by default. This
resulted in a few initialization sysex messages for The 7th Guest
not being sent.
I've added an implementation for this method.

The 7th Guest initializes GM devices during the "loading GM drivers"
screen, which is a normal video that plays "audio" that consists of
initialization messages (mostly Roland GS sysexes). The original
interpreter plays this video twice, which is enough time to play the
entire INI_SC.XMI initialization file. ScummVM apparently plays video
a bit faster, and there is not enough time to play the entire init
file. Because of this GM initialization is incomplete.
I've fixed this by making the init video loop until the audio has
finished playing.
Note: I have only tested this with the original DOS version of the
game. I don't know if the file reference I've used to identify the
GM init video is the same on other platforms. If not, this change
might not work and/or have unintended results.
The GM music for The 7th Guest contains several drumkit selection
messages which use an incorrect drumkit number. This relied on a
correction mechanism of the Roland SC-55, which would correct these
numbers to valid selections. This mechanism was not present in later
GS and GM devices, causing error messages and wrong drumkits.
I've fixed this by adding code which simulates the correction
mechanism of the SC-55.
The 7th Guest sends several SysEx messages for Roland GS devices during
startup. ScummVM did not send these messages.
The Groovie MusicPlayerMidi class encapsulates the MidiDriver which is
actually used for sending MIDI events. However, it did not implement the
sysEx method, so the empty implementation of MidiDriver_BASE was used.
I've added a sysEx method which forwards the messages to the actual
MidiDriver.
The current patch mechanism allows only replacing intructions in current
scripts, but not adding new instructions out of nowhere.
Thus, issue like #9646 is about to be closed as WONTFIX.
This new mechanism adds a hook on vm.cpp, before executing opcodes, and
if required, executs a new code.
It solves one of the issues of #9646, the others can be solved as well using that mechanism.
Add detection for the Macintosh CD 'La Tartaruga e la Lepre' (The Turtle and the Hare) [Italian, English], and a demo included on it for the game 'Al mare con la Nonna' (Grandma and me)
To make it easier to continous changes to the contents of the
ultima.dat file in the future, this development allows the
Extra Path to be set to the devtools/create_ultima folder, and
it will use the files in the files/ subfolder in preference to
the ultima.dat archive
Implement a kind of font mapper which takes a list of font files, font
face name, size, slant and weight and finds the best matching face.
Fakes italic and bold if there it isn't available.
This commit adds support for TTC files which contains multiple faces
(used by CJK Windows fonts).
