vbSMS+ WIP

Обновился эмулятор 8-ми битной сеги от Олафа. Изменения:

Well, I was unhappy with the way full screen mode looked (stretched graphics causing ugliness), so I fixed it. Now, when switched into full screen mode, olafsms will scale the screen properly in relation to the Sega Master System's original resolution (which most emulators do anyway, but I was having trouble with). I have also added in saving of screenshots and the option to switch into full screen mode when you load a ROM.
Last, but certainly not least, I've done some rather extensive work on how input is handled. I made it completely configurable (vbSMS was not configurable at all) and added a configuration window for it. In related news... I've added support for PC gamepad input! What's great about my method for this is, the buttons/directions are technically mapped to your keyboard configuration, and it also detects PC gamepads "on-the-fly". If for some reason you decide you don't want to play with the keyboard anymore (or some other off-the-wall situation), just plug in your PC gamepad without closing/restarting the emulator! Below are screenshots of the newly updated configuration windows.
Actually, the full screen toggling is done with the Esc key (like Project64, an emulator I use very often). Also, I just fixed background layer disabling (the column on the left won't show anymore when that layer is disabled. The difference can be seen below when compared to older screenshots.
Had to rename "olafsms" (even though it wasn't the final name anyway) to vbSMS+. A lot of people in the SMS emulation/gaming scene didn't like that I completely renamed the project and put my name in the emulator title. I can see where they wouldn't like that, and I don't want to make anyone mad at me. vbSMS+ makes a good mid-point in between renaming and not using the original name.
