// Package notifications allow communication from a cartridge directly to the
// emulation instance. This is useful, for example, by the Supercharger
// emulation to indicate the start/stop of the Supercharger tape.
//
// Notifications are sometimes passed onto the GUI to inidicate to the user the
// event that has happened (eg. tape stopped, etc.) For some notifications
// however, it is appropriate for the emulation instance to deal with the
// notification invisibly.
