PCSX2 SVN r3647

PCSX2 SVN r3647 is released. PCSX2 is an open source PlayStation 2 (PS2) emulator for the Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. With the most recent versions, many PS2 games are playable (although speed limitations have made play-to-completion tests for many games impractical), and several games are claimed to have full functionality.

PCSX2 SVN Changelog:
r3643
Trace Logging:
* Cleaned up trace logging and switched from C++ initializers to C-style const arrays. Kinda mixed on which I like better, but decided to go with the general rule of thumb that a bit less C++ weirdness is probably a good thing.
* Removed __assume() feature from pxFail and pxFailDev, due to the likeliness of unwanted/unexpected compiler behavior (MSVC only). To hint the compiler that code should be unreachable, explicitly use pxAssume(false).
r3644
Improved EE/VTLB memory management: Removes various psM/psR/psS/psH pointers and replaces them with a single unified eeMem pointer. Members of eeMem correspond to Main, Scratchpad, Hardware, etc. This simplifies the EE's memory allocation, improves compiler optimization, gets rid of some macro mess, and allows templated code to deduce the size of memory buffers automatically.

* Includes a minor tweak to DMAC.h - removed tDMA_TADR / tDMA_MADR / etc. and replaced them with a single tDMAC_ADDR class.
r3645
Found and fixed the issue causing some FFX battles to hang since ~400 revs ago.
The same problem caused the hang in Phantasy Star 4 when pressing pause.
r3646
GCC/Linux compilation fix for VTLB code modifications made earlier. These thanks to two apparently separate bugs, one in GCC 4.0-4.4 and another related one in 4.5. Sigh.
r3647
Ok the last fix for GCC exploited a bug in MSVC's handling of taking the address of templated functions (one I've run into before). So I gave up and reverted to non-template code.
