Wakestate detect v1.0 by Troed/SYNC
As promised during my overscan and sync scroll talk at STNICCC 2015: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4WJYyoF1Lk
Here's a piece of code to detect which wakestate the machine is currently in. It's done using a specially crafted scanline which due to the combination and position of GLUE frequency and resolution register changes creates a scanline of different length in ST wakestate 1,2,3,4 as well as on STE.
Feel free to include _detect_ws in your own code.
