This feature allows overriding the frequency of the Vertical Blank Interrupt. For many games, this means that their gameplay speed will change without affecting audio, which would be useful by itself (e.g. grinding in RPGs).
However, there are games that use delta time for their game logic, which allows them to be played at >60 FPS at the same gameplay speed!
Some games aren't dynamic though, and require a patch to adjust their game speed variable.
At the end of each frame automatically update the Current Value for
visible table rows in the selected and visible CheatSearchWidget (if
any). Also update all Current Values in all CheatSearchWidgets when the
State changes to Paused.
Only updating visible table rows serves to minimize the performance cost
of this feature. If the user scrolls to an un-updated cell it will
promptly be updated by either the next VIEndFieldEvent or the State
transitioning to Paused.
base is an unsigned variable, so we can make things little more
consistent by making the loop index unsigned so we aren't doing bit
arithmetic with signed types.
MemoryInterface already does this, so we can leave it alone.
No behavioral changes, just a consistency thing.
This was added in 385d8e2b15, but became somewhat redundant with Do in 4c7bbd96e4, and completely redundant now that std::is_trivially_copyable_v is well-supported.
This adds about a frame of latency, and since most games don't change
VI registers during scanout, we can get away with outputting the XFB at
the start of scanout. WWE Crush Hour is the (only currently known)
exception, which has flickering problems when doing it this way.
This adds a path to perform the output at the end of scanout, and gates
it behind an option which defaults to using the latency-reducing
pre-scanout path.

I must've only tested the frame counter with an earlier version
of the PR that broke this, not the final version...
It used to be the case that frame advance skipped duplicate frames
(i.e. it would take 30 frame advances to get through one second
of emulated time in a 30 fps game), but this broke in 9c5c3c0.
Skipping duplicate frames making TASing less annoying.
