[sumo] Shikona change

[Mike Charlton]

朝道龍

A better romanization would be Asadouryu.  Morning Way Dragon.  The
dou (way) is the character for street or path and also for "the way to
enlightenment".  It's the same character as the Chinese word "tao" as
in the Tao Te Ching (sorry for the bad transliteration -- I don't
speak Chinese ;-) ).
