Recent file open

[bazz1tv]

This is a useful feature to have. It adds an "Open Recent..." File submenu for loading files you've loaded in the past. 'nuff said (not really) .. I didn't test the feature with BSX/sufami turbo (I've never messed with that stuff), but it should work.. I opened a function that is used to load all types of cartridges based on file extension.. but I tested it with normal carts only. Seems to work. Be careful, could be broken. Try it out, you will love it :)

Note: I had to combine a commit from my previous pull request (Mandatory) for keyboard menu shortcuts, because they modify the same file.. Does that present problems? I am new to pull requests.

If you'd like, I have already manually merged the Mandatory branch and this one into my master branch.. I could create a new pull request from my master and I think it would be easier for you to merge. It's not too hard to do separately though (at least from my local git, not sure about thru a pull request).

bsnes already supports user-redefinable hotkeys for loading ROMs, resetting the emulator, loading/saving states and various other functions. I'd rather continue to add hotkey functionality using that mechanism than add a bunch of hardcoded keys (though I suppose hardcoded keys is more "Mac-ish"...)

In particular, having the Escape key as an "exit" hotkey with a context of the entire application strikes me as dangerous and undesirable. Do you really think it's a good idea if pressing Escape while any debugger subwindow has input focus instantly exits the entire emulator?

how about we forego that then.. i have no problem keeping my fork im happy with it. ^.^

OK I took a look. Actually, only the Load Cartridge and Reset shortcuts are available in the bsnes configuration menu. All of the other shortcuts I manually hard-coded are not customizable in the program. However, I agree that by instead adding the new shortcuts as additions to the customize-able system would be cooler.

BTW, I personally love the idea of hitting escape to easily quit out.. and that's my choice.. I can learn to add these hotkeys as optional features rather than hard coded things tho.

OK I have implemented additional keyboard customization shortcuts.. The gist of it can be seen here: https://github.com/bazzinotti/bazzsnes/commit/386e967cf00e77b203412c9dd12e57d56bb79cac

Although that is for bsnes 0.68 with a different directory hierarchy.. I will probably base future work on that version because it has PPU layer toggle unlike bsnes-classic.. CBA to pursue implementing such a feature on bsnes-classic...

073 has it too (Tools > Effect Toggle)...

UGH wish I knew that <_> Thanks :)

My master branch now has the extended customize-able keyboard shortcuts, full qt5 support, open-recent-romz support, autobreakpoint support (detailed under comments under the respective commit).
