!!! BizHawk 1.8.4
[https://github.com/TASEmulators/BizHawk/releases/download/1.8.4-approximate/BizHawk-1.8.4.zip|Windows binary]
* Released October 11th
* Released from release branch, represents trunk revision 7950 and cherry picked revisions 7965, 7972

** Change the expansion slot override notion. If a game in the gamdb has the expansion slot override, override the user's choice, but don't change the sync setting (otherwise all games they load afterward will be set to this). In the N64 menu item, show the checked status based on if the core is actively using the expansion slot, not whether the sync setting is set. If the gamedb is overriding the user's choice make it clear by disabling the menu item. This commit message is longer than the changeset itself.

!!! Old Version Tags
Notes on reverse-engineering git revisions for tagging old releases based on release notes and SVN log:
* 1.11.1 - (wild guess) (more date problems)
* 1.11.0 - cedc7d445144fcd5f473ad99ffd526a50cbf8998 (sure, believe it or not) - YET, the build says june 15, not june 15. very confusing?
* 1.10.0 - r9415 (positive)
* 1.9.4 - r9285 (positive)
* 1.9.3 - r9233 (50% sure)
* XXX 1.9.2 - (i have no idea where 1.9.2 and 1.9.3 are divided, but 1.9.3 seems more clear)
* 1.9.1 - r8272
* 1.9.0 - r8233 (60% sure, missing some traffic in history, but sappharad jumped on it immediately after this)
* 1.8.4 - r7991 (80% sure, missing traffic in history)
* 1.8.2/3 - r7871 (hazy; originally I wrote r7885, but I think I went one too far)
* 1.8.1 - r7740 (positive)
* 1.8.0 - r7728 (release notes say r7725, but i think it's probably r7727.. anyway, these are missing as usual.,.. r7728 merged back to trunk--i think thats good for the release)
* 1.7.4 - r7501 (70% sure, but missing traffic in history around this time)
* 1.7.3 - r7356
* 1.7.2a - r7300
* 1.7.2 - r7275 (60% sure... it seems unambiguous but there was no traffic in the history around this time)
* 1.7.1 - r6944 (a little hazy, but seems ok)
* 1.7.0 - r6813 (positive)
* XXX 1.6.1 - r6271 - (reportedly r6271, but commit missing from git)
* 1.6.0a - r5936
* 1.5.3 - r5456 (pretty sure, but release notes say r5457 which is missing from svn. r5456 seems like a good breaking point)
* XXX 1.5.2 - r5123??? (release notes say r5123, but its missing in git. i'd gonna call it r5121 - r5122 is portable branch and r5123 adds credits and a turbo hotkey fix which seem unique in 1.5.2 - but 5121 is a big refactor commit
* 1.5.1 - r4902 (hazy. release notes say r4903 but r4903 merged a hotfix to trunk. i think r4902 merges something from trunk to 1.51 branch, that probably defines 1.5.1. but that tag is missing in svn, so im gonna say r4901
* 1.5.0 - r4822 (positive)
* 1.4.1 - r4300 (positive)
* 1.4.0 - r4198 (positive)
* 1.3.0 - r4026 (positive)
* 1.2.0 - r3524 (very sure)
* 1.1.1b - r3394 (not sure, but based on old release notes which tended to be sure)
* 1.1.1a - r3381 (positive)
* 1.1.1 - r3374 (positive)
* 1.1.0a - r3169 (positive)
* 1.1.0 - r3153 (positive)
* 1.0.5 - r2693 (positive; release notes say r2694 but the aboutbox was updated to 1.0.6 in r2694)
* 1.0.4b - r2469 (release notes say r2469, but history isn't clear. r2469 is a decent last-minute tasworthiness commit)
* 1.0.4a - r2423 (positive; release notes say r2422 but aboutbox was updated in r2423)
* 1.0.4 - r2415 (positive)
* 1.0.3 - r2130 (positive)
* 1.0.2 - r1983 (positive)
* 1.0.1a - r1872 (very sure)
* 1.0.1 - r1869 (close enough)

Notes about release vs Release branches
# commit 99b84e0 deleted the old svn release branch. "Release" was created in its place. The commits were later restored and tagged as releasebranch-svn-end
# commit 5761b6b renamed the branch from "Release" to "release". No data was lost.
