Port event scheduler from vAmiga #749

Closed dirkwhoffmann closed 1 year ago

In vAmiga it's much more convenient to perform delayed actions such as pressing and releasing keys in auto-typing mode. In VirtualC64, this is done via individual counters.

Work item 1: Port the event scheduler from vAmiga and start using it for

Datasette emulation
Auto-typing

Work item 2: Check if performance increases if CIAs are invoked via the event scheduler, too.

VirtualC64 has gotten an event scheduler. At the moment, it's only used for performing inspections as a proof-of-concept.
