WIP:
- 0.142: David Haywood converted Vapor Trail to use the common DECO sprite functions. Started moving common DECO MXC06 sprite controller code to it's own device files, reducing code duplication. Fixed multiwidth sprites in decmxc06.c, removed code which appeared to serve no purpose other than to break the Birdie Try gfxdecode in machine\dec0.c.

- 0.103u3: David Haywood converted Super Burger Time, Vapor Trail and Crude Buster to use the DECO tilemap functions. Swapped gfx2 roms.
- 0.102u5: Highwayman added prom ($0 - 512 bytes).
