memory.c dropped every store made while SR.IsC was set. Beetle's
PS_CPU::WriteMemory sends them to the caches instead
(mednafen/psx/cpu.cpp:482-512), before any address decode:
- I-cache enabled (BIU bit 11) with a tag-test, invalidate or lock mode
bit: the store rewrites the tag and valid bits of its line. This is how
FlushCache (A 44h) and the boot cache init invalidate the I-cache.
- D-cache enabled with lock mode clear ((BIU & 0x81) == 0x80): the store
lands in the scratchpad at addr & 0x3FF.
- Nothing reaches the bus, the BIU register at 0xFFFE0130 included.
psx_icache_isc_store transcribes the tag write; memory.c's three store
chokepoints call it (and the scratchpad write) first, so compiled code,
overlay shards and both interpreters share it. DMA writes are not CPU
stores and now bypass IsC, as in Beetle. A render pass applies the same
effect (its checkpoint restores tags and scratchpad), and the overlay
shadow record fails closed on an isolated store, which its replay
cannot redo.
isc_store_test drives the real memory.c and psx_icache.c: 15 of its
checks fail on master.

Rename out-of-line load helpers to *_slow to match psx_cyc.h inlines,
declare psx_icache_fetch/reset, and wire overlay callbacks to slow paths.
