Today 06:00 1ea5d57303: [BugFix] TagNav Custom Menu Entry Wrong title, crashing menu

Wrong title is due to the VIRT_PTR being 0 so when a NULL string is passed through P2STR() you get langid(0) that was 'Yes' now it will be 'Rockbox'

the crashing menu was due to a call to retrieve entries that wasn't guarded against getting called on a menu with no entries

g#5911 introduced this path to call custom_action for shuffled track adding

Yesterday 18:12 d893da1929: tagtree.c get_tag() increase performance

while its not a particularly hot path it still gets called upwards of 1000x on startup

with a little pre processing we can make it faster than even the prior version

check first letter before calling function move strlen check to after the case match

Yesterday 14:47 39285d06d5: xduoox3: Rework how we detect "charging" state

The "charging" status is apparently "charging needed" as it is asserted even when power is not being supplied. So first check to see if USB is connected, and if so, then check the "charging" status.

Yesterday 14:23 0a2a90c182: FS #13560: ATA: Don't check for 80 pin cables on SATA devices.

On PATA, we'd cap our transers at UDMA2 if the device reported that an 80 pin cable wasn't detected, but SATA devices do not perform this test.

So alter the check to only apply on PATA devices, so that SATA devices can run at full UDMA speeds.
