By Sunlit and Kandowontu

This patch is compatible with any MSU pack on this Zeldix thread: https://www.zeldix.net/t1805-star-fox

SlowROM is best for running on a real SNES, as FastROM may be unstable on 2CHIP/SHVC SNES revisions.
FastROM is best for emulators, and provides a very small performance boost.

The game looks for the presence of the MSU-1 on boot. If the MSU-1 is not found, the original SPC700 music is used instead.
