Description:	Make the carrying system NSMB-like. You will no longer be able to put your shell in place or throw sprites upward. Also, you will not be able to crouch, look up, or enter a dirt pipe or door when you are holding an sprites. The shell will not be able to be taken out of Yoshi's mouth and put in its place. (The same goes for Buzzy Beetle.)

It's been many a long year since I last played a NSMB game, so I can't attest to the accuracy of the design of this patch. Nevertheless, it claims to do a handful of things and does in fact do them, so it's still approved.

Note that the patch description mentions changing how Yoshi spits out Buzzy Beetle shells - it does, but only if these shells are made Yoshi-mouth-carryable by some other patch. With just this patch alone, Yoshi will still instantly swallow Buzzy Beetles.

A note about a small edit made to the patch: Show/Hide

Every "player is carrying item" check in this patch is accomplished via LDA $148F : BNE .Carrying, with the sole exception of the pipe entry check, which is done as LDA $148F : DEC : BEQ .Carrying. I see no practical need or advantage to checking the flag this way, so I've changed this check to use BNE like the others. In addition to being more efficient, it prevents a bug in which a throw block can be carried through a pipe if the block is picked up on the same frame the pipe is entered (because $148F is set to #$08 in this case instead of #$01, see $02865A).

Tested with Asar 1.81, Lunar Magic 3.40, SA-1 1.40, Snes9x 1.62.3, BSNES Accuracy 0.7.1.
