[WIP] Bacon Flasher for my carts

[ChisBread]

Hi! This is a WIP PR, please do not merge.

The Bacon Flasher uses a CPLD to implement the SPI protocol and uses CH347T to convert to USB.
I will open-source it after I'm done.

Current progress:
AGB: Support flashcarts with write buffer such as S29GL, JS28F, etc., support backup and restore of SRAM/Flash. Support RTC
DMG: -

Bacon Flasher

Write ROM (520KB/s)

Backup ROM (750KB/s)

BTW, I bought goodboy, so it appears in my test images. :P

@ChisBread Hey I tried building your fork of the FlashGBX software because a friend of mine has a bacon flasher, however, the built files crash and won't open with these errors:

You don't have any releases on your repository do you distribute the software somewhere else I would be able to download it from? Thanks.

I'm sure I put it in setup.py, am I missing something?

I'm said friend and I think I managed to get it installed now, though the device doesn't seem to want to show up.


Not sure it's the right drivers, I tried the ones that came with FlashGBX too and they didn't seem to work either.
