20506091cc [perf] arm: Improve performance with barrel shifter.
Instead of using a struct member to hold the last barrel shifter carry output, which is expansive as it needs to be saved/loaded from memory, I now pass the carry around as an INOUT parameter.
Using perf anotate really shows high perctile of samples being spent on reading/writing `self.bs_carry_out`

Since this is a rather "surgical" changeset, I have made sure to run it against eggvance test suite, mGBA test suite and some games as well.

I actually saw better improvements than what the benchmark measured, but 7% is decent enough :)

```
run_60_frames           time:   [180.18 ms 180.45 ms 180.77 ms]
                        change: [-7.2464% -6.9081% -6.6324%] (p = 0.00 < 0.05)
                        Performance has improved.
```

b6e2d55550 Everyday I'm ~~shuffeling~~ refactoring.
Some big refactors:
* improve scheduler performance by using a BinaryHeap
* refactor the scheduler API
* arm7tdmi
	* Change struct arm7tdmi::Core struct layout so frequently accesses fields would benefit from CPU cache
	* Simplify and cleanup cycle counting by implementing a MemoryInterface trait
	* Still not passing many cycle accuracy tests, but I believe it's because I don't have the prefetch buffer yet.
* Timer overflows are now scheduled
	* This fixes  and fixes 
*

dc7cd24e8d [perf] Refactor&Optimize inner core::arm7tdmi APIs.
Avoid passing ArmInstruction struct to handlers, as accesses to its fields can result in memory operations.
