What's new in 2.6.1

* Still works (minimal test only) in DOS
* Works (minimal test only) with BIOS from 2.5.1 (note that the opposite effect is the rule)
* Added missing import "SetScrollInfo", 2.5.1 has only "MapDialogRect", 2.6.1 now has both
* Changed "vga" , must be adjusted or kicked from config file
* Deleted "i440fxsupport" , must be kicked from config file
* Deleted "pnic" , must be kicked from config file
* Warns about "keyboard_type" , "keyboard_serial_delay" , "keyboard_paste_delay" , "keyboard_mapping" , "user_shortcut" in config file

PS: Georg has an (unreleased) DGJPP port of BOCHS: #12428
