Révision 216
Work in progress commit:
Reworking WiiXplorer GUI Core (most of the parts of libwiigui are removed/recoded).
Making application more object oriented with signals/slots like most frameworks do. GUI/Application is now on the same thread, the main thread. Orienting the GUI framework to be more like most frameworks (e.g. Qt).

Don't bother compiling this revision because most of the things are not working yet!

Forwarder and WiiXplorer:
*Properly sync video after flush to avoid green flash

*Updated to newest ehcmodule by rodries (thx!)
*Added necessary source code to support both USB ports at once and copying files
from one to another (WORKS ONLY WITH IOS202/222/223). It is disabled right now because of weird crash caused by the ehcimodule when copying from one usb port to another which can corrupt partitions. Will be enabled when the issue is resolved. Right now only usb port 0 is active.
