New d3d8 code and FFXIBench3 - pretty good!

[Coleman Kane]

Its actually an i865 and "must remain" an i865. Its amazing, the 3D
performance (with shadows and all) is pretty fast if I disable the code
that results in the screen blits.

It looks like it may actually be running them through some "Stretch
Blit" function. I don't know if this might translate down to a D3D call
or not that does a size transform at the time of Blit.

If you'd like, I'd be willing to help out if I can on getting this
working better. Sounds like you've gotten a head start on it.
