As requested by Bart; Ian's last SourceForge commit.
Also, purely to appease my OCD, a change I forgot on my last 'Games.xml' PR that really shouldn't bother me as much as it does.

Virtua Striker 2 '99.1 (Step 1.5, Japan, Revision B)
Thanks to Brian Troha and The Dumping Union
-Separate each possible boards (wheel, joystick, skipad, billboard).
-Defined a Driveboard type in Games.xml for each games.
-Due to the refactoring, Driveboard Savestates have changed (a common base data + a specific board data are saved).
-Backwards compatibility with previous save states is maintained.
-Driveboard rom section is no longer required anymore. This disables Driveboard emulation in case the rom is not found.
-Added Billboard emulation (vf3, vs2, fvipers2, von2). 7 segments and lamps Outputs are redirected to Supermodel outputs.
-Changes project to C++ 17 standard.
New clones
-Sega Bass Fishing Deluxe (USA) (Brian Troha)
-Dirt Devils (USA, Revision A) (Brian Troha)

Note/Warning:
This will match future Mame 0.228 changes.
Please Check/Edit carefully all your rom set because there are many changes (e.g. set name).
Thinking of delete or rename your nvram, or restart from the start.
- Real3D PCI ID can be specified in Games.xml for exceptions that require it.
- Real3D status bit timing specified in Games.xml for exceptions that require it.
- hooked up the remaining controls in Supermodel (except for Magical Truck Adventure which does not work at all yet). The new controls are:
* InputAnalogJoyTrigger2 and InputAnalogJoyEvent2 for the additional second trigger and event buttons that were missing from Star Wars Trilogy,
* InputRearBrake and InputMusicSelect for the rear brake and music selection buttons that were missing from Harley Davidson,
* InputAnalogGunXXX, InputAnalogTriggerXXX, InputAnalogGunXXX2 and InputAnalogTriggerXXX2 for the analogue guns of Ocean Hunter and LA Machineguns (NOTE: these controls must be calibrated in the games' service menus otherwise they will not work properly. Also, the alignment of the gun cursor does not line up very well with the mouse position at the moment, but at least the games are a bit more playable now, although still with numerous graphical glitches...)
* InputSkiXXX for the controls of Ski Champ, making the game playable now.
- hooked up existing InputViewChange control to Harley Davidson's view change button
- improved the handling of InputGearShiftUp/Down inputs so that they work better with the driving games. With Dirt Devils, ECA, Harley and LeMans this means they map directly to the game's own shift up/down controls, while with the 4-speed games such as Daytona 2, Scud Racer and Sega Rally 2, they simulate the user shifting up and down through the gears
- added defaults for the new controls to Supermodel.ini
- other small code tweaks:
* fix small bug with handling of pos/neg inputs mapping to a control with inverted range (0XFF to 0x00) - this was needed to get Ski Champ's X-axis to work properly
* removed Wait method from InputSystem and added to CThread as CThread::Sleep instead
* added FrameTimings struct to hold all frame timings in a single place
No networking code yet as just haven't had a chance to work on it since initial progress at the beginning of the year - am *hoping* might have some time to pick it up again over Christmas...
