Add thumbnail name variations for current MAME (0.179) #151

This PR adds the new titles and name variations introduced between MAME 0.159 and 0.179.

When I prepared the MAME thumbnails set currently included in this repository, it was a few months ago. At the time, the MAME-git core was not working well and the priority seemed to be providing thumbs that matched the databases for 'stable' or 'historical' libretro MAME cores -- 0.37b5, 0.78, 0.139, 0.159.

In the meantime, some improvements have been made to MAME-git. Also, Alexandra's "Pretty, Curated Playlists" generator has debuted as the most robust playlist and thumbnail generator for MAME in RetroArch. Her scripts are based on the bleeding edge ROM set. Adding these thumbnails ought to make things a lot easier for users of her scripts and anyone else who uses the most current MAME core.
