FS#11958 - iPod Classic thick 160GB CE-ATA hack

Here’s a working but terribly slow and invasive hack to get the thick 160GB iPod Classic drive working.
This involves multiple core changes:
- Get rid of all on-stack sector buffers
- Align the remaining sector buffers to cacheline boundaries
- Fork the ATA driver to support CE-ATA as well

I currently believe that the slowness is mainly coming from the low sleep() resolution in Rockbox, and maybe over-yielding.

This patch is currently rather awful and will probably need lots of work before it can be included. Be warned.

Has been committed some time ago

I’ve fixed some more bugs and split this thing apart into a core patch (FAT rework) and a target patch (ATA driver).
