sorry to tell but this will bring a speed drop, so let you decide if this change stay or not.( used the fastest open source hash algorithm i know)
do not apply full hashing to other format because it kills the performance.
for popular request added 9x SSAA believe me will kill your graphic card even if is the best but the image quality is exceptional.
as always please test and let me know the results.

chage the global format of the screenshots to bmp, is correctly supported by both plugins and is faster.
reverted the changes in safe texture cache, will try to make them more stable then commit them, this should fix compilation in linux and macand error introduced in MP games
corrected all the issues commented by ector, thanks for the comments alway is good that the code is revised by others to find missed spots.
please report any remaining issue to solve them.

first fixed scaling when updating backbuffer to make it friendly with encoders, now frame dumping must work without errors in any codec.
clean screenshot and frame dumping code now is more correct, faster and stable.
improve safe texture cache, improving the distribution of the hash algorithm, including tlut hash in the final hash of the texture, and making use of a 64 bit hash to make it more accurate.
clean a lot of code and corrected some missused vertex formats when drawing full screen quads.
and biggest change last:
implemented pseudo antialiasing: a image post-process algorithm that mimics antialiazing and is fare more easier to implement in this scenario.
you can change the intensity of the effect changing the values of the antialiasing combo. the right value depends on the game.
for example mkwii looks awesome with 8x.
please try all the changes and let me know the results.
if something is broken, please let me know and will fix it asap.

Basic usage: "sudo scons install=global install"
Hopefully this doesn't break builds on Macs. I have tested this on linux and windows.

Enable the thread by adding this line to the video plugin ini files, "User\Config\gfx_dx9.ini" and "User\Config\gfx_opengl.ini":
UseFIFOThread = True
The line should be added under the UseXFB line.
To disable the FIFO thread, use this line:
UseFIFOThread = False
If the line is not in the ini file, the default is disabled (i.e. False).
The FIFO thread causes an error when the OpenGL plugin is used. The D3D plugin works.
Only top left quarter of the screen can be seen when rendering to main window. The entire screen can be viewed when running in a window.

Advantages:
* Less confusion for users
* No need to build twice to make sure you didn't break something
* Easier to switch between the cores for testing
Disadvantages:
* None, as far as I can tell :) Maybe some extra code complexity, but not much.
Also break some include chains that caused <windows.h> to get included into everything, slowing down the build on Windows. There's more to do here though, there's still a lot of files that get it included that don't need it at all.

in opengl correct an error introduced by mi in efb to ram alignment, it's seems to fix SMS but it missalign a lot of other games, so revert to the default. must solve truncated coins in NSMB.
revert alpha testing values to the values in rev 4812 as they fix some games.
in d3d dynamized the Render target size so it will change at runtime when viewport exceed it size, in the worse case it will cause a missing frame when resizing but in the games I tested is not noticeable at all
This must solve all the remaining viewports problems in nvidia cards, in ati this is not needed.

in videocommon little fix for the alpha test values, return to the original values as they are more accurate.
in D3D:
huge change in state management, now all the state management is centralized and redundant state changes are eliminated.
Fixed the overlapped viewport error in non ati cards:
the error was caused by this: when a viewport is defined larger than the current rendertarget, an error is thrown and the last valid viewport is used, this is the reference behavior, in ati cards if a larger viewport is defined, no eror is returned, the rendering is valid and is rendered using the projection defined by the viewport but limited to the rendertarget are, exactly like opengl or the GC hardware.
to solve this in reference drivers defined a large rendertarget (2x the size of the original) and proceed to render in a centered quad insithe the larger rendertarget, in this way larger viewports always falls inside a valid rendertarget size, the drawback of this is the waste of resources. it can be dynamized, depending or games or changed at runtime when a oversized viewport is detected, but i live that to future commits.
please test this and let me know the results.
