Simple DirectMedia Layer is a cross-platform multimedia library designed to provide low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, 3D hardware via OpenGL, and 2D video framebuffer. 
*New features
 UPGRADED blitspeed using moops dreamhal sh4 asm memcpy and memset bult in.
  Now using GLDC  https://gitlab.com/simulant/GLdc
	OpenGL (Open Graphics Library) is a standard specification defining a cross-language cross-platform API for writing applications that produce 2D and 3D computer graphics. The    interface consists of over 250 different function calls which can be used to draw complex three-dimensional scenes from simple primitives.	
	Kazade's Dreamcast OpenGL is a more compatible OpenGL (v1.2) library GLDC:	
	Full KallistiOS and SDL integration.
	Texture color and size conversions.
	Two texture internal color mode supported: RGB5551 and RGB4444.
	
	- Ported precompiled libraries and headers needed to compile all examples

Credit Chui for doing all this work so i could upgrade it and improve it for the new GLDC and Dreamhal math routines and functions 


# Old version

	- VIDEO
 Before SDL_Init call, you can choose SDL video driver for Dreamcast. The following values are valid.

* SDL_DC_DMA_VIDEO (default)
	Use DMA video drive. It is the fastest video driver using double buffer 
	since every graphic access uses RAM and SDL_Flip function sends data to VRAM using DMA.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- SDL_DC_TEXTURED_VIDEO
	Use Textured video driver. If you want to use a virtual resolution (no 640x480, 320x240, ... ), you can use this driver for scaling using hardware texture. PVR textures is always 2^n (128x128, 256x128, 512x256, ... ) and these resolutions are real SDL_Surface resolutions.
Using SDL_FULLSCREEN flag only 2^n resolution are allowed, but if you do not use this flag it will be automatically fit to SDL_SetVideoMode resolution. See SDL_DC_SetWindow for manual fit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- SDL_DC_DIRECT_VIDEO
- ----------------------------
	Use Direct buffer video driver. Maybe faster than DMA driver if you do not use double buffer.
	SDL_DC_SetWindow(int width, int height)
	Only for textured video driver and must be called after SDL_SetVideoMode,
	this function allow setting the visible area (hardware scaled). If you open a 512x256 texture resolution, 
	only smaller virtual resolution is allowed.
	-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	
* SDL_DC_VerticalWait(SDL_bool value)
-------------------------------------------------
Enable/disable wait for vertical retrace before blitting to PVR hardware.		
	
* SDL_DC_ShowAskHz(SDL_bool value)
------------------------------------
Enable/disable ask for 50/60Hz (only for PAL Dreamcasts) video.		
	
* SDL_DC_Default60Hz(SDL_bool value)
--------------------------------------
True for 60Hz default display (only for PAL Dreamcasts).

* SDL_DC_MapKey(int joy, SDL_DC_button button, SDLKey key)

Map a Dreamcast button to SDLKey. First parameter is number of Dreamcast joystick port (0,1,2 or 3). The following table shows valid values for second parameter and default values for third parameter.
