Supporting hardware, expansions and projects for the rosco_m68k

This is a 4MB SRAM expansion for the rosco_m68k, kindly contributed by HeathenUK. See:

The expansion is done as a hat, rather than as a bus expansion, meaning you can use this along with other bus expansions without having a bus board.
