games/gb: various HDMA fixes

H-blank DMA should only transfer 16 bytes per h-blank, rather than
waiting for the first h-blank and then transferring the whole size.

HDMAC should read 0xff when the transfer is finished, and 0 in the
high bit when the transfer is ongoing. Also, if 0 is written in the
high bit, the current transfer should be aborted.

Introduce two flags, DMAREADY and DMAHBLANK rather than special
constants 1 and -1. If dma is non-zero, there is an ongoing DMA. If
DMAREADY is set, the next chunk is ready to transfer.

Tested with pokemon crystal.

What was happening is that when the game was loading N background tiles
into vram (each 16 bytes, so one per h-blank), it did something like
this:
- start an hdma transfer for N+1 tiles
- after the Nth tile is transferred, it would read HDMA5, clear the
high bit, then write it back to abort the transfer.

games/gb would instead transfer all N+1 tiles at once, overwriting one
extra tile with whatever was 1 past the end of the source array, and
then would interpret the cancel request as the start of a new transfer
of 16 bytes, which would copy an additional tile past the end. The end
result is that every transfer would end up copying N+2 tiles instead
of just N, overwriting certain tiles with whatever was after the end
of the source data.
