Bug#133843: ITP: spectrum-rom -- ZX Spectrum ROM

It'd be useful if you also include ROM images for the ZX Spectrum 128, +2 and
+3 in this package. (For the +3, the v4.0 ROM is sufficient.)
However, various emulators have different ideas about whether the ROM sets
for these machines should be stored as one file per page or one file per
machine; fuse (unofficially packaged; see .sig) does the former, and xzx does
the latter. Both could usefully depend on spectrum-rom.

A verbal contract isn't worth the paper on which it's written.
