I don't mean replacing the subpage handle with a call to c_r_io_m_f();
just make the handle that is placed supage_t::sub_io_index have real io
callbacks.
In io_mem_init(), call cpu_register_io_memory_fixed() with a new
mem_read[] callback array an the existing notdirty_mem_write[] array.
In subpage_register(), if we get an IO_MEM_RAM, convert it to
IO_MEM_SUBPAGE_RAM (and copy the 'memory' to region_offset).
