- Rewrite argument handling: the ROM is now the final argument and options
precede it (parsed in argv[1..argc-2] so optional-value flags never swallow
the ROM). Add grouped --help/-h, unknown-option errors, and clear 'missing
value'/'no ROM' diagnostics.
- Add --chrome, --palette/--green, and --bios flags; set the display/capture
options before the --shot and recording paths so screenshots and recordings
honor them. Make --shot dump the composited capture frame.
- gbctl: pass the ROM last when spawning the emulator.
- gitignore the (copyrighted) bios/ directory; document all new flags.

--keys "udlrabse." plays scripted joypad taps (each char = one button
held 10 frames then released 10, so the guest sees a clean edge); pairs
with --headless --shot to drive on-screen input and capture the result.
When --keys is active, serial-RX EOF stays pending instead of sending
$04, so a shell blocked on read waits for OSK input instead of exiting.

Lets scripted runs feed stdin to the serial console AND capture the
resulting screen, e.g. printf 'ls\nexit\n' | gbc rom.gb --headless --shot 0 out.ppm
Previously --shot ran frames with no stdin, so anything waiting on input
(a shell) only showed its first prompt.

The unused SM83 opcode $ED now sets gb->poweroff, which breaks the headless
loop so the normal cart_free()->cart_save() path runs. Lets a guest OS shut the
emulator down cleanly (and flush its .sav) instead of relying on an external
timeout/SIGTERM, which could SIGKILL before the save. run_frame() also stops on
poweroff so exit is immediate.

When stdin is a terminal, --headless now disables canonical mode + local echo
so keystrokes reach the guest immediately and only the guest echoes (no doubled
chars). Piped/redirected stdin is untouched (scripted input still works). Keep
ISIG so Ctrl-C quits; restore termios on exit. VMIN=1 so a no-data non-blocking
read is EAGAIN, not a 0-byte read the serial layer would misread as EOF.

- --headless: no rendering/TUI; serial TX -> stdout, RX <- stdin (nonblocking)
- generalize serial: serial_out_fd/serial_in_fd on the GB; internal-clock
transfer now shifts in a real RX byte (from stdin) instead of always 0xFF
- paced to native speed by default, --uncapped for turbo; pipes/scripts cleanly
- README: document headless serial console

Two socket features for building reproducible showcase clips:
- record start <path> [everyN] / record stop: append the RGB888 framebuffer of
each produced frame to a flat 'GBCV' capture file (downsample with everyN).
tools/gbgif.py turns it into a GIF (or PNG frames). Capture is decoupled from
wall-clock/turbo/frameskip, so timing is always correct.
- input play <path> [reset] / input stop: drive the joypad from a synthesized
TAS-style movie (text: '<frames> [buttons...]' per line), frame-locked so
replay is deterministic. 'reset' does an exact power-on (preserve cart
ROM+SRAM, zero all other state) so a movie replays byte-identically -- verified
by hashing two runs. tools/gbmovie.py is a Python builder for movies.

Replace the input-only FIFO's limitations with a Unix-domain socket control
channel (--sock) that is a superset of the button vocabulary plus emulator
introspection: read/write bus memory, get/set CPU context, single-step, PC
breakpoints, value-change watchpoints, run/pause. Being a socket it replies to
each command and broadcasts async 'event stop ...' lines; a stored last-stop
record (stopinfo) lets per-request clients recover a missed event.
Add gbctl: a stdlib-python CLI that spawns a tmux pane running the emulator on
a ROM, auto-resolves the socket, and drives it with terse verbs (cpu/read/write/
reg/step/break/watch/continue/pause/press/hold/screen/stop). The FIFO stays as
legacy input-only.

Emulation always runs at native rate (correct game speed); --frameskip N draws
only 1 of every N+1 frames so a slow terminal no longer bottlenecks the loop.
Adds --fps cap, --uncapped/--turbo, live [ ] and f keys, HUD readout, and an
exit summary of emulated-vs-drawn fps. Replaces the confusing --render-fps.

Adds --fifo [path] opening a named pipe that accepts button commands from any
process. Supports momentary taps (a, start, name:N), deterministic hold/release
(+name / -name), and 'release'. Merges with keyboard input; held state carries
true key-up semantics the terminal can't provide. GBC_INPUT_DEBUG traces state.

Passes blargg cpu_instrs (all 11), instr_timing, mem_timing.
