stephena fa3dc7cc38 Beginning the process of more properly integrating Distella (and disassembly 
in general) into the emulation core.  For now, this means integrating the
directive names into CartDebug, and having Distella using those same names.
The new directive names were determined by discussion with Omegamatrix on
AtariAge, and are listed in order of decreasing hierarchy:

  SKIP  (the 'bit' trick to skip over sections of code)
  CODE  (addresses accessible to the program counter)
  GFX   (addresses where data is loaded into TIA GRPx registers)
  DATA  (addresses referenced somewhere in the ROM)
  ROW   (addresses never referenced at all)

The next TODO item is to have the 6502 core set these values during emulation.
This is currently (crudely) done with a true/false setting in System::peek,
where true corresponds to CODE.  This will be extended, so that false
corresponds to DATA.  Eventually GFX will also be detected, by watching writes
to the TIA GRPx registers.  Still to work out is how to detect SKIP sections.
Anything not marked with one of the above directives will be marked as ROW,
which essentially means ROM space that is never used.  This will have the
nice side effect of detecting dead ROM space, potentially leading to space
optimizations.
