use DAT from real MAME 0.139 instead of a reconstruction #122

When I first added a DAT to this repo, I thought it would be superior to use one of the ProgettoSNAPS DAT files since they are a modern creation.

It turns out that the Progetto DATs are good for reconstruction romsets but cut out a lot of the metadata that a "real" DAT file includes.

This PR replaces the Progretto reconstruction with a DAT generated from an actual MAME 0.139 binary.

I have now been able to generate a DAT directly from this core itself -- even more accurate. I'll close this PR and open a new one with the more accurate version.
