"""Assemble the Atari 5200 viewer with `xa` and lay out the 32K cartridge.
The cartridge fills $4000-$BFFF. The 5200 BIOS jumps to the address at $BFFE-F
(duplicated at $BFE8-9, with $BFFC=0 / $BFFD=$FF) -- verified in MAME a5200.
ANTIC DMAs the bitmap and display list straight from cartridge ROM, so we only
place them at fixed cart addresses and point ANTIC at them:
$4000 viewer code
$4100 GTIA register script (offset, value pairs, $FF-terminated)
$4200 display list (ANTIC reads it here)
$6000 bitmap (the converter's 4K-split blob -> $6000 / $7000)
