Biplane [TTL] [Andrew Welburn]

- Corrected biplane4 ROM labels [Stephen Beall]

My thanks to Andy and to Stephen for the Fun Games update and addition.

Granted Allied Leisure Ace (similar game) is already supported and playable, but I
never saw Allied Leisure Ace in arcades compared to Fun Games BiPlane which is why
I am grateful that proms for BiPlane are now supported even though the game won't be
fully emulated for some time.

From 1975 to 1977, it seemed like every arcade had a Fun Games BiPlane cab
somewhere in any of the rooms. Not as numerous compared to Pong and clones, but
BiPlane cabs were around at many places.

BiPlane was Fun Games main flagship product. Fun Games Tankers was probably
their other main product, but I usually saw more Kee Games Tank or Tank II
compared to Fun Games Tankers.

Tankers game play may appear similar to Tank, but the pcb hardware is different
compared to Tank. See flyer link for Tankers flyer.

Mirco Games Sky War and Tankers info added in hopes that either a Sky War pcb (memory board) or a Tankers (memory board) can be identified and the four proms from either the Sky War memory board or the Tankers memory board can be dumped in the future and supported in MAME as well.
