added: support for diskimage 'merge' tags. This is also handled by the profiler option 'parse merge tags'. In case you don't use it (which is the prefered method imo, you probably have to double identical but differently named chds (currently only MAME109u5 konam80s/j sets are affected).
added: dir2dat option to handle archives as files (instead of parsing them)
misc: scanner diskimage routines rewrite
misc: profiler doesn't need a rescan when running in batchmode
misc: profiler remembers selected tree/list items in all_profiles mode
fixed: rom/chd hashlist doesn't get updated on set selection change and direct rescan
fixed: an unneeded chd doesn't get recognized when rom zipfile exists in the same rompath
fixed: setinformation tree item checkboxes get enabled on click/init

A little confusing... Is the preferred method to use 'parse merge tags' or to not use 'parse merge tags'?

My prefered method is to keep this option disabled. merge tags were too wrong several times in the past, although you save a little bit diskspace...
