syncarcade: add the two measured cabinets to games.ini

MAME 2003-Plus sends no SET_INPUT_DESCRIPTORS, so a cabinet's fire
button cannot be derived and must be measured with probe_core -hold.
Battlezone fires on RetroPad Y and has a right-tread second stick;
Centipede fires on B. These are the only two cabinets measured so
far, so they are the only ones labelled.

syncarcade: correct ten titles and a romset that names no driver

The ~90 cabinets added in e412538acd (bingo-36-pump, 2026-07-28) carry a few names that do not match the machine, checked against the driver descriptions MAME 2003-Plus itself carries.

[wwfmani] named no driver at all, so the section was inert and the game kept appearing under its raw romset name -- the one thing this file exists to prevent. The driver is wwfmania.

The rest are the title a player reads in the picker: Asterroids, Bango and Final Flight for Asteroids, Bang! and Final Fight; Samuri Showdown for
Samurai Shodown, whose missing "w" is the official spelling and not a second typo to fix; Ultimate Mortal Kombat missing the 3 that distinguishes it; and 2020 Base Ball, Open Ice 2 v 2 Tournament and Bat Rider for 2020 Super Baseball, 2 On 2 Open Ice Challenge and Armed Police Batrider.

[ghouls] read "Ghouls", which is not a game. It is Ghouls'n Ghosts, and the short form is worse than useless three lines above [gng] -- Ghosts'n Goblins, the game it is the sequel to and the one a reader would assume was meant.

Log Message:
syncarcade: two more sections that named no driver

Both date from the file's first version (917e215520, 2026-07-24) and have
been inert since: MAME matches a section by the romset name, and neither
name is one.

[millipedes] is milliped. [burgtime] is btime -- and btime was already in
the file fifteen lines below, carrying the same title, so the fix is to drop the dead one rather than rename it into a duplicate.

Every section in the file now resolves to a driver this core actually
carries, checked against its own driver table.

Revert "Added many more arcade games, based on mame 0.78 ROMs"

This reverts 079b5fb887 (spec-11-bytes, 2026-07-31), taking games.ini from
4740 romset sections back to 181.

A section in this file used to mean someone had run that cabinet and put it here deliberately, which is what makes the file a sane home for button
labels, stick2, boot_frames and analog_rest. After the bulk import a section meant only that the romset exists in MAME 0.78: of the 4740 sections, every
one carried a name and exactly five lines in the whole file were anything
else. Restoring the smaller file restores that meaning, which the per-romset settings depend on.

Load time is a secondary reason and a narrower one than it appears. The
native door reads this file through xpdev's iniReadFile and was never on the slow path; only the lobby's File.iniGetAllObjects() was, and that is fixed
in 7a0dabc561 (2026-07-24) for v3.22. The 204 KB cost fell on v3.21 and
earlier alone.

The names are not lost and need no file of their own: git show 079b5fb887:xtrn/syncarcade/games.ini recovers all 4740 entries, and that
commit records where they came from. A sysop with a large collection can extract them into their own games.local.ini, which is where entries nobody
here has run belong.

Nothing curated is lost in the revert: the bulk commit dropped none of the
181 existing sections and changed none of their values, so its 354 deletions were re-sorting alone.
