Fix a couple typos, add a section to the README explaining the Cube64 Basic and Mini

Yay, a schematic for the Cube64 Mini. So cute!

Give the Cube64 Basic a real PIC16F84A symbol. A PIC16C84 had been hiding in there instead- not only are those old, but they won't run at 20MHz like the 'F84A will.

Rename the old design "Cube64 Basic". It needs external power and uses a commonly available PIC16F84A microcontroller. The new design, probably called "Cube64 Mini" generates its own 5V power and uses a tiny 8-pin PIC12F629 micro.

Whee, fix some EEPROM compatibility problems. This runs on the PIC12F629 now. That means that with two 8-pin chips and a few passive components we have a cube64 adaptor with full-strength rumble emulation, button remapping, and calibration. Yay!

Commit by micah :: r4617 cube64/firmware/cube64.asm:

Disable the comparator. Like the '675s A/D converter, it takes over GP0 and GP1 until it's disabled since it's unsafe to power up in digital mode if there's an analog signal coming in.

Commit by micah :: r4540 cube64/firmware/cube64.asm:

Check for a magic word in the EEPROM on startup, reset it with an identity mapping if that word isn't found, and use the EEPROM to map all virtual button codes. This should act exactly the same, but it's much closer to supporting button remapping

This should now do the same thing, but in a more complex way :)
All gamecube buttons, including the emulated buttons produced by the C-stick, turn into virtual button codes. Those virtual button codes are then mapped back to N64 buttons. It should be easy to stick an EEPROM lookup in at the virtual button code layer now, to add remapping support.
