MESS Git (2016/02/01)

MESS Git (2016/02/01) is compiled. MESS(Multi Emulator Super System) is an open source emulator which emulates a large variety of different systems. MESS is a source-available project which documents the hardware for a wide variety of (mostly vintage) computers, video game consoles, and calculators through software emulation, as MAME does for arcade games. As a nice side effect to this documentation, MESS allows software and games for these hardware platforms to be run on modern PCs.

MESS Git Changelog:
* h21: Added vc4000 compatibility flag.
* Nibble driver: Load the undumped PLDs... Also added more tech specs/notes.
* Nibble driver: Rewrote the whole driver. Added video hardware,
preliminary machine driver and memory map. Decoded the graphics.
[Roberto Fresca]
* lx810l: non-driver devices cannot have layouts, it scrambles the parent driver's video (nw)

Software list entries can now supply slot option defaults [AJR]
This feature is enabled when executing 'mame driver software'. After the specified software is found in the software list and attached to an appropriate image device, the software part's feature list is examined for any feature whose name is that of a slot device with _default appended. The feature's value field becomes the slot's default option, which overrides any driver-specified default and can be overridden by user-specified options.
No software lists have been updated to use this feature at the moment.

----------------------------------
Unknown Nibble game [Team Europe, Marcus Jendroska, Y~K, Smitdogg, Roberto Fresca, The Dumping Union]
* osd/windows: small cleanup
* hh_tms1k: note
* fix a mutex regression (this doesn't fix the lockups i'm seeing)
* fidel*: added(rather, much improved) internal artwork for VSC,CSC,SC12

This fix VS2015 warning (and building) about uninitialized variable.
* Merge branch 'master' of https://github.com/mamedev/mame
* fixed clang compile of m68kmake(nw)
* This fix VS2015 warning (and building) about uninitialized variable.
(note: I don't think is right initialized to 0, but I don't have the skills necessary to determine the proper value.)

* Merge pull request #592 from ajrhacker/slapstic
One small step toward slapstic modernization (nw)
* One small step toward slapstic modernization (nw)
- Make chip number part of device configuration, not init param
- Correct mainpcb slapstic number in racedrivpan
- Remove many unused slapstics
- Hopefully no regressions

Modernize sound volume setting code in various Atari drivers [AJR]
* Modernize sound volume setting code in various Atari drivers
This lets atarigen.cpp shed legacy sound routines using the archaic
method of looking up sound devices by types rather than tags (which
until 0.126u2 they weren't required to provide and often didn't have).
* fidel6502: added CSC foreign language sets
* new clones
