Implement basic SRAM support #12

Closed kbeckmann closed 2 years ago

Map the SRAM area to physical SRAM on the RP2040.

Allocate 128kB for now. We might be able to use 256kB if we write our firmware carefully.

Investigate how much SRAM is actually required on commercial games. Maybe 128kB is more than enough?

See this for SRAM sizes http://micro-64.com/database/gamesave.shtml
