Source changes:
---------------
- Added macros to prevent use of strcasecmp and strncasecmp for better cross-platform compatibility [Nathan Woods].
- Added MDRV_SCREEN_RAW_PARAMS() which lets you specify a pixel clock, horizontal, and vertical video timing values in place of the usual screen size, visible area, refresh rate, and VBLANK timing values [Aaron Giles].
- Added service_coin_lockout_w() to lockout service coins [Aaron Giles].
- Changed mode selection logic so that refresh is weighted more strongly when picking a mode. This allows you to specify -resolution 0x0@60 to force MAME to pick a 60Hz screen refresh while allowing it to choose the best resolution [Aaron Giles].
- Connected unimplemented opcode $01 on the 6809 core [Antoine Mine].
- Fixed bug in 8039 CPU handling of A11 latch [Aaron Giles].
- Fixed bug that prevented save/restore from working in the UI [Aaron Giles].
- Implemented CNT pin and some serial features of the 6526 CIA chip [Nathan Woods].
- Mapped service button in slammast [Canim].
- Massive cleanup/fixing of 16-bit Sega drivers [AWJ]:
  * Many corrections to descriptive set names, adding revision letters, cabinet types, etc.;
  * Fixed many DIP switches and added PORT_DIPLOCATION support;
  * Adjusted min/max values for analog controls to improve response;
  * Fixed button ordering between System 16A/B;
  * Cleaned up a number of ROM names and fixed some incorrect guesses;
  * Some cleanup of turbo.c as well;
  * Fixed visible area in 'Hang-On' hardware;
  * Actually disabling 8751 in games that have a fake replacement;
  * Hooked up 8255 PPI correctly now that it has mode 2 support;
  * Fixed behavior of NMI line in later sega sound boards;
  * Fixed addressing in the SegaPCM sound system;
  * Some hardware/documentation cleanup.
- Rewrote "Zaxxon" driver from the schematics. This is still a WIP (not finished yet) [Aaron Giles]:
  * Correct clock speeds and video timing;
  * Complete memory maps;
  * Connected universal sound board to "Ixion" and "Razmataz";
  * Simplified video code and merged common cases together;
  * Palette derived from resistor weights;
  * Background positioning still a little off.
- Some cleanups in the new UI/video code to make MESS happy [Nathan Woods].
