OSBYTE &6E (110) - Write to ROMSTROBE

 On entry:
   X= new ROMSTROBE value
 On exit:
   X= old ROMSTROBE value

The value passed in X is written to the ROMSTROBE port and the RAM copy, the old value of the RAM copy is returned. Implemented in the Electron Plus 1 Support ROM. The ROMSTROBE port is at &FC73 on the Electron, and writes the byte of data while the ROMSTROBE line is activated on the cartridge slot.
