Add support for secondary palette #28

Closed jtothebell closed 3 years ago

Games such as Polar Panic (https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?pid=70606#p), High Stakes (https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?pid=83548#p) use the secondary palette and look very weird without that palette.

Basic usage of the secondary palette via screen palette shifting is now supported which should make these carts look correct (I tested Polar Panic and X-zero, but not High Stakes). However, the trickery needed to show more than 16 colors on the screen at the same time (the second screen palette described here: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=38565, and in video form here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osk7P4ljWOU) is not yet supported
