* bus/nes_ctrl: Revised Bandai Hyper Shot to only use exp port calls.
- Also corrected Space Shadow mirroring. Now game properly blanks background every other frame.
- Use %p player specifier for B button.
- Use helper function for writing strobe bit
* bus/nes_ctrl: Work on Famicom joypads + more separation of EXP port.
- Enforced proper strobe behavior on joypads. Added helper function to controller interface for common pattern.
- Added proper expansion port version of joypad.
- Streamlined pachinko controller by making it an expansion joypad subclass. Moreover, ball launch lever now works correctly!
- Added missing battery-backed WRAM to Pachio-kun 5, game runs now.
- Simplified arcade stick a bit, now also a subclass of the expansion joypad.
- Rewrote Hori Twin and 4 Players adapters. The latter's 4P mode protocol now works. In theory this supports six players simultaneously, though all known games using it have duplicate controls for P1 and P2.
machine/nes.cpp: Removed hack that shifted bit 0 reads to support controller port joypads on expansion port. There shouldn't be any expansion port devices left that write to bit 0.
* Fix missing battery-backed WRAM for Royal Blood and Vegas Connection, while we're at it.
- Added daisy chain expansion port to Famicom paddle for Arkanoid II's versus mode.
- Also expanded range of paddle value reads to ensure full range of motion within all games' play fields.

In response to MT#08138, I have tested and promoted gberet to working status and added a usage field that explains that the c1541 slot device needs to removed prior to loading.
I have also tested all other entries marked as not working and found both flintstn and ghostbsta also work if the c1541 slot device is removed prior to loading. These entries have been updated in the same manner as gberet.
I also found apba also works regardless of whether the c1541 slot device is removed or not so this has also been promoted to working status. In addition, whilst testing apba, I found that the game asks for Side 2 not Side B so I have corrected the side numbering for apb and apba.
