This patch adds emulation for the very rare SID-based
Innovation SSI-2001 card. The emulation is based on
reSID 0.16.
reSID source files are added under src/hardware/reSID
with only the following changes:
1) .cpp extension is used instead of .cc;
2) In siddefs.h VERSION is replaced by "0.16";
3) In sid.cpp line 521 log(2) is replaced with log(2.)
(was causing compile error).
Emulation is controlled by section [innova] in
dosbox.conf. Emulation can be enabled/disabled
(disabled by default); sample rate can be changed
(22050 seems to be optimal); SID base port can be
changed; quality can be adjusted (maps to reSID
sampling method).
Tested with Ultima 6 -- everything seems to work fine.
The card is listed in installer as "Innovation" (the
very last option in sound).
Disclaimers:
- I've compiled this patch only with VS2003. All
necessary changes for other toolchains are there but I
cannot verify that everything works.
- I don't have any other games that support this card
so I cannot test them.
- I don't have the actual hardware so I cannot tell if
the emulation is authentic. It sounds "right," but
that's about it.

    Small update to the patch. Now using 1.023MHz (NTSC)
    frequency instead of 985KHz (PAL).

    Fixed using proper NTSC frequency
