32k single FX demo, presented at bunzli #8

QTM player by Phoenix/Kulture

code by baah/Arm's Tech
Some infos:
* The plasma uses biquadratic interpolation on two channels, then taking the
maximum of both channels. This FX was coded first by ArmOric, but it was
slower because it used a fractal recursive method (as seen in ItsDemoTime).
Quadratic values are computed incrementally, using only one addition more
than bilinear interpolation and the same amount of registers! :)
* CircleFill routine is fully clipped and quite fast. It uses incremetal
quadratic computation, too.
* My HeapSort routine is faster than the OS': 87cs to sort 65536 elts, against
144cs for OS_HeapSort.
* The demo uses an Euclidian division routine.
* The font plotter runs during VBl interrupt. So on my 40MHz arm710, the main
FX runs at 20fps, and the text at 70fps. ;)
* I renamed the player to QTMreckart, so that when i kill it it won't affect
the standard QTM player.
