Need more control over NVRAM use #11

@GoogleCodeExporter

Description

@GoogleCodeExporter
Whenever you begin playback (or begin recording) fba-rr 0.0.3.03 reloads
the ROM and reads the NVRAM (.nv files) under ./config/games. Whatever is
in there will be used in the movie. If there a dirty nv, and if the movie
adjusts settings before play, there will certainly be desync.

Optimally there should be a choice whether to use dirty nvram when
beginning recording.

* Start from savestate
* Start from power-on with nvram
* Start from power-on without nvram (< should be default)

If it is to be used, it should probably be added into the fbm file rather
than reading the contents of the config folder.

Fortunately there's a workaround: delete the game's .nv file prior to
playback every time.

Dipswitches are apparently (?) not a problem because their state is stored
as inputs, like button presses.
