Nintendo Super Famicom Recap & Voltage Regulator Swap

Yellowed Nintendo Super Famicom (SHVC-001) given an electrical refresh rather than a cosmetic one. Replaced the voltage regulator and recapped the board (a few SMD values were missing on the day, so some caps are left as a future task), and touched up the solder on the controller ports and power jack. Smoke tested clean with Yoshi's Island. The shell was left yellowed, no retrobrite.
