Claude bd64b9de5e ikarijpb: dual stick aiming with the right stick, as a DIP switch (#1581)
The bootleg has no rotary joystick: the game reads the direction the
player faces, and fires to, in the upper nibble of the joystick port, and
snk_rot8_ikarijpb() sets it from the joystick, so the player fires where
he walks. A new 'Aim with Right Stick' setting (a DIP switch that is not on
the board, Off by default) makes a pushed right stick set it instead: the
player walks with the left stick and aims with the right stick, in 8
directions. With the right stick released, the direction follows the
joystick again.

The right stick inputs (P1 Aim, P2 Aim) default to the right analog stick
of each player, and to I/J/K/L for player 1. They are read only by the
driver, not by the game. With the setting Off the game runs as before.
