The coin switch is a mechanical switch inside the cab's coin mechanism.

It is used for detecting an inserted coin when the coin lockout isn't powered, via active-low bits 1 and 0 of register REG_STATUS_A.

Only the system ROM should interface directly to the coin switch.

Input is made through a CRE401 array to NEO-I0.
