[Fabio Priuli] -neogeo.cpp: huge clean up of the cartslot code in order to better exploit slot devices: [Fabio Priuli] * moved cart-specific components to the carts itself removing the fake protection devices from the main system, since they never belonged there * removed hacky rom region destruction/construction when a new cart is inserted, replacing it with proper bank pointers to the carts (except for ymsnd and ymsnd.deltat region which will require modernization of the ym devices) * started re-organization of bootleg boards emulation, so to reduce the need of collapsing everything into a single cart type with multiple protection devices, more work is needed -neopcb.cpp: moved to a separate source file the emulation for JAMMA PCB versions of a few neogeo games, since they don't have a cartslot. [Fabio Priuli] -neogeo.xml: added information about Japanese titles and release dates to the software list and aligned the list to the driver.

All of this can be determined at runtime from object as well. As part of this, the "template" to write devices has changed. Converted a number of devices to use the new template. [Couriersud] -All netlist devices now follow new syntax. Removed dead code. All sub devices are now forced to be initialized in the constructor. Device setup now completely in constructor.
