We need Bootmine,Cubicdoom and bootslide

Here's another bunch of Boot Sector Games.

I've tested Bootmine, CubicDoom and TetrOS, they all seem to work just fine when using the image as FDA in v86.

But these are over 30 images in total, maybe not all of them are needed.

Here's an archive boot-sector-games.zip with 16 tested bootsector game images from this source collection:

Each image can be booted as a floppy disk in v86.

Two of the images are larger than 512 bytes, but I think this doesn't matter. And one image crashes for me, included it anyway. I excluded any image that is already distributed with v86. A few images from the source collection are not included, they just didn't look too interesting.

EDIT: removed forgotten link to Dino, added boot2sol, Tetranglix and TronSolitare (thanks to @SuperMaxusa), updated archive

EDIT: Dasher doesn't crash after the 2nd level, it only has 2 levels

+5 games:

Bonus: not games, but nice demos - https://forum.osdev.org/viewtopic.php?p=169831#p169831, https://github.com/brainsmoke/nyanmbr/blob/master/nyan_nosync.img

We have this game on v86 home page: https://copy.sh/v86?profile=dino (https://github.com/copy/v86/commit/ee0805c343340f4008d83390e578583e67a99af8)
