A Link to the Past: an annotated US disassembly for Asar

AsarUSALTTPDisassembly reorganizes and annotates assembly for the US SNES release of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. It adapts earlier disassembly work for Asar, adds labels, RAM maps and notes based on the author's research, and aims for an exact ROM rebuild once its build is complete.
