Yoshi's Island: a SNES disassembly for two US ROM revisions

A disassembly of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island provides SNES assembly sources and maps for the USA v1.0 and v1.1 ROMs. Its asset-extraction script uses a clean, headerless copy of a supported ROM, and the project builds on the author's SNES ROM framework.
