 LGEO 6x6 webbed dish fix

There is an error in the LGEO version of 4285.dat

lg_4285.inc has only 6 web divisions, instead of the 8 that occur in the
true LEGO part.

I corrected this for my personal use some time ago, and just recently this
issue has come up on lugnet.  So here is my "fix" for this problem.

NOTE:  Do *NOT* try to open this file in a .dat viewer or editor.  It is not
really a .dat file.  It is an .inc file for use in your LGEO directory.
When you download it, save it as "lg_4285.inc" in your LGEO directory,
overwriting the old one.  If the lugnet server won't let you download it as
an .inc file, download it as a .dat and rename it.  Anyway, here goes:
