the intent is to replace the haphazard scheduling and finger-crossing associated with saving/loading with the correct and minimal necessary wait for each thread to reach a known safe location before commencing the savestate operation, and for any already-paused components to not need to be resumed to do so.
This should make it so if you try to load an incompatible save, it simply doesn't load, instead of crashing dolphin. (I can't guarantee no crash but it's much less likely now)
Renamed OnFrame.cpp/h to a more accurate Movie.cpp/h. Made some small changes that may improve movie synchronization.

Saving a state that is not recording over one that was will now delete the old recording. Fixes trying to record with the wrong savestate.
Fixed some compiler warnings.

Changes:
* Allow events to be scheduled when the emulator is not running. This allows the save state event to be added before the emulator starts.
* Removed the Audio back-end init flag from the save state. This value should not be saved as it is not data relevant to guest machine.
* Allow a recording to be started at any time (apart from when a recording is already being made).
* Updated the status bar and title bar when an on-screen message is shown
* Removed the saving of PEToken from the save state as the FIFO will save this information
* Added a couple Pixel Engine interrupt states to the save state
* Added the copyright notice to the GCPadStatus.h file.
This function is preliminary. Let us know of any bugs you find or any UI quirks.

* Frame counter is restored properly post-load.
* "Read-only mode" menu option added. Currently this either causes the movie file to be closed at the end of playback (if enabled) or continues recording past end of playback (if disabled).
* Can now properly resume recording from a state saved during movie playback.

Properly pause the core when saving/loading savestates, previously we used PowerPC::Pause() and Start() which only update the state but doesn't properly set m_StepEvent and caused random hangs.
Fixed hang when creating a savestate while the game was paused or in Frame Advance mode, now the thing works (just remember to press play duh).

This WILL temporarily break the Linux and MacOSX builds but should be easy to fix.
Things left to do:
* The UI on the new Audio tab for the LLE/HLE choice is ugly
* At times the code still look "plugin-y" and needs cleanup
* The two plugins should be merged further. DSPHLE should use the emulated memory etc of DSPLLE as much as possible, so that simply saving the DSPLLE state is enough. This would also bring the possibility of savestate compatibility between the two plugins.

systems where size_t is typedef int.
It's either this or use the C99 %zu but while we can probably
safely assume C99 compilers, I am not at all sure that that's the
case for stdio libraries and this solution is fairly low-impact.

Most of the code dealing with the LogTypes namespace was C which lead to a
lot of nonsensical casting, so I have dumbed LOG_TYPE and LOG_LEVEL down to
plain C even though the move of wiiuse into Source means we don't currently
call GenericLog from C.
Set logging threshold to MAX_LOGLEVEL at startup so debug builds will also
p rint debugging messages before the GUI is running.
For some reason the way we use SetDefaultStyle doesn't play nice with wx 2.9
so we just get the default black text on a black background. Using a gray
background works around that problem, but I found it to also be much easier
on the eyes so I have switched the background color on all versions.

Also, input movies are now linked to savestates instead of just selecting a file to save to and running a game and are exported at a later time. This allows you to easily continue a recording across sessions and makes rerecording possible.

In the future if we merge wiimote too, this will bring the advantage that the two will be able to cooperate, to no longer fight over control of input devices which can sometimes cause problems.
Thanks shuffle2 for the patience.
