Note that the existing entry for "Stallone: Cobra" has been renamed to "Cobra" to reflect the title change that occurred from C64 Ultimate Tape Archive V1 to C64 Ultimate Tape Archive V2. I have also demoted this entry to not working status as the game crashes as soon as it loads but surprisingly the original Ocean release (added on this PR) with different tape loading software works OK.

* Expanded VRC4 CHR bank regs to 9-bit. This functionality is verified on Konami VRC4 hardware as well but is only used by clones (World Hero here).
* Removed board for World Hero. Its VRC4 clone chip is under a glop top but is thought to be identical to Konami's.
* Reimplemented TF1201 (Lethal Weapon) as a VRC4 subclass. Its clone chip is only known to differ by the IRQ reload bit, which it ignores.
* Reimplemented Shui Guan Pipe as a VRC4 subclass. Its clone chip has different PRG banking but is otherwise standard.
