Demo compatibility

I've tested a few demos, and these are the results:

Works perfectly (as far as I can tell)

has Issues

gbc and gba seem to have the same bugs, and the bugs that happened with dmg and sgb seem to happen to all emulation modes, so I marked every bug that happens on gbc and gba as (gbc) and didn't mark the rest.

  • Roboto Demo The 3D-ish thing doesn't look right and flickers slightly. Here's how it's supposed to look: https://youtu.be/WmMDLpUQ0oU
  • 20y incorrect intro because of custom gbc bios a slight visual glitch in this part (gbc)
  • Oh! a similar visual glitch in this part (gbc) at 2:31 as well (gbc) some slight tearing at 2:36 more tearing at 3:12 (gbc)
  • gejmboj the same visual glitch at 4:51 (gbc)
  • It came from planet zilog doesn't start at all on dmg, which is probably intended but should be investigated regardless coloring glitch on the top at 4:42, possibly caused by incorrect wrap-around

Some of these demos were never meant for the gbc and gba, and some only work on those, so someone should probably test the behaviour on real hardware. I do have a gba sp, although I don't have one of those custom cartridges with an SD-card-slot. I'll update the issue with more demos later today, but I think it probably won't uncover any new bugs.

update: I'm gonna get a SD-card cartridge loader on May 13th, so I'll be able to test those (and more) on real hardware to compare to the emulator.
