In addition to a combined binary we get HLSL shader improvements Thanks to Jezze

https://github.com/mamedev/mame/commit/26572a83c31c6a6d83cd3dff2b23e1274dee13bc

I've been enjoying these over the last few days because Jezze and u-man were kind enough to share their work and settings.

Here's what I'm using right at the moment
