attotime: fix lockup with as_string and negative attotime,
video: fix issue with throttling when mame runs at slow motion (-speed lower than 0.2) options: change mimimum speed setting from 0.01 to 0.1 (mame would crash with very low value, and besides, video throttle still fails below 0.1), ui: add speed slider when cheats are enabled
