When using this option with Simon 1, Simon wouldn't be cleared from the
bottom of the screen, if pressing Esc when Simon starts walking through
the screen right after the "Simon the Sorcerer" title is printed, at the
very beginning of the game.
Triggering the clearSurfaces() code even when _neverFade is enabled
solves this problem.
Fixes a mistake of mine in commit 802caa4c39.
Simon1 and Simon2 fade the screen to black whenever leaving a room,
but this can be slow to render on some devices, and for some people
nowadays it can really make the pace of the game quite slow.
The DOS versions of Simon the Sorcerer 2 now use the Miles drivers. AdLib now
sounds like the original does. ScummVM would use the second set of XMIDI data,
written for the MT-32, for GM with instrument remapping. Now the first set is
used, which uses GM instruments and has extra instruments on several pieces.
For all versions music fade-outs have been added during screen fades.
- Add dual layer graphics display to display the Japanese characters in their proper (double) resolution on top of the graphics. The original actually uses text mode.
- Adapt mouse handling to dual layer code.
- For consistency I got rid of all direct calls to _system->lockScreen() and _system->unlockScreen(), even in the sub engines that aren't affected. I find it easier to debug and to maintain this way.
