VGM Player now works!

Lots of fixes...
Download here! (New package includes loading music from Fire Track as a sample)
- Fixed reading of files. I'd used 'char' instead of 'unsigned char'. Files that played back as plain silence now play back fully, also play at correct speed. What a stupid mistake - it's amazing it worked at all! I ended up rewriting the entire PSG emulation thinking it was that that was to blame... evidently not! - Halved frequency of noise channel by only switching output once on 2 clocks. It was an octave too high before! - Fixed odd jumping/incorrect (after loop) seek bar. - Changed [x] exit button to use 'x' character rather than the cross symbol - the cross appeared as a "Pt" sign under Windows 2000. - Removed display of Japanese tags. - VGM files that loop back to the exact start of the file are now looped rather than ignored. - Added display of system name for noise mode and very stupid autodetection. - Sound output is now averaged inside each 44100Hz sample to "antialias" the output. Sound output that relies on channels at 0 outputting fully now work. Sampled audio still sounds a bit noisy/weird. Sound is now output at 16-bit. - Option to enable/disable sound channels individually. - Accelerated seeking considerably.
