Hack description

Changes:

- If life is lost, the level does not restart, and the player's ship appears from behind the screen with a period of invulnerability, as in the game Life Force.
- added the ability to continue the game after a loss by selecting the "continue" menu item on the title screen.
- Continue also works like an in-game save game, i.e. after GAME OVER, information about the level, hi score and number of players is saved in SRAM. (but only after GAME OVER, and if you reset in the middle of the game, the game will not be saved.)
- At the end of the game, after the "congratulations" inscription, the "bonus 100000" inscription appears as in the Japanese version and other inscriptions, the inscriptions also change when passing the next loops.

What Gradius needed!	sics	2020-09-24	Version 4
I have long wanted a patch that would do exactly that, it's great, although I would have loved if it could be applied in "Gradius - Arrangement Chronicle Death" as I consider it the best way to enjoy this classic, although even so their work has earned a place in my game library and in my heart, thank you!
