Tempest code hacks

Anyone want to 'beta test' a devilishly simple hack that removes the 5
extra men limit to Tempest? Josh McCormick sent me an update for the
(his) Tempest coding project yesterday. Also fixed up the CRC checksums
for the open-level select hack.

Details:
-------
These modified Tempest ROM files will allow you to (a) select :
any level you want (up to 81, the green level), any time you :
play, regardless of score; or (b) increase the limit of bonus :
lives from 6 to 255 (although at most, only 6 lives will be :
displayed at the top of the screen). You can use one hack or :
both. :
                                                                       :
The CRC checksums for each modified ROM are fixed so there will :
be no errors reported in the self-test. As it turns out, and :
what really makes sense, is that checksums are performed :
(at $DA0A) on each individual ROM, so checksum corrections need :
only be made on the ROM that is modified. :
