Description of changes

Packages Nuked-MD, a WIP cycle-accurate Sega Mega Drive / Genesis emulator based on decapped & reverse-engineered chip photos.

Currently more of a research & curiosity thing than usable for regular end-users, as it's 400x(!) slower than real hardware.

Showcase (massively sped-up, of course): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaDBjkMXPw0

Maybe it becomes playable when the scientists and engineers develop a large-scale light-based transistor...
