This implements horizontal pel panning, which is used by games such as
the Commander Keen series, and also reimplements word and odd/even modes
so that they work in graphics modes; this mostly fixes Jazz Jackrabbit's
graphics.

There are still some issues with Cirrus VGA, and also Keen expects the
display parameters to be latched in ways that I don't fully understand
and that seem to differ between Keen 1 (EGA) and 4 (VGA).  So there is
still a bit of tearing, but I have been sitting on these patches since
the Christmas holidays of 2014, so let's flush this first part.
