mame: update to 0.264.

MAME 0.264 is ready right on time! Before we get to emulation
improvements, there are some changes to the debugger that may affect
you. The debugger窶冱 printf and logerror commands now support more
formatting conversions and options, including NUL-terminated strings
from emulated memory, hexadecimal numbers with lowercase digits,
and left-aligned fields. This may change the behaviour of some
debugger scripts. In other general changes, MAME now supports saving
compact cassette images in compressed FLAC format, so you can save
some disk space.

Thanks to new contributor Enzo Lombardi, Dribbling now has emulated
sound! This classic twin-stick top-down football game was once a
common sight in Italy窶冱 numerous arcades. Sound effects make for
a much more authentic experience. Robin Sergeant, another relative
newcomer to MAME development, has been putting in a lot of work to
improve the state of the Research Machines RM-380Z family, and it窶冱
really coming together. This release adds sound, graphics, 8" disk
drives, and more.

The very rare arcade game Vampire from Entertainment Enterprises
has finally been dumped and emulated. A rare sight in 窶�80s arcades,
it wasn窶冲 known for being a great game. In a way, this makes it
more interesting, as we窶决e more often reminded of successful games
and more likely to forget the failures.

If you窶决e feeling adventurous, you can use the newly emulated Visual
Technology XDS-19P as a graphical terminal for a modern Linux system
running X11 applications. It requires setting up BootP and TFTP
servers, as well as configuring the host system so it can connect,
so be prepared for a challenge if you decide to try it out.

Of course, there窶冱 much more, including working controls for Tomy
Plarail and Tomica TV games, fixes for audio CD playback, and dumps
of the few remaining EC series Japanese e-kara cartridges.
